Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Cleaning the Outside

The door handles and trim. Clean with a
cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with
a soft cloth. Do not use wax on the door
handles and trim.

Keep the outside clean. Wipe with
a clean cloth lightly dampened with kitchen
appliance wax or mild liquid dish detergent.
Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth.

Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled
dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave
a residue that can erode the paint. Do not
use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,
bleach or cleaners containing bleach
because these products can scratch
and weaken the paint finish.

Cleaning the Inside

To help prevent odors, leave an open box
of baking soda in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.
If this is not practical, wring excess moisture
out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around
switches, lights or controls.

Use an appliance wax polish on the inside
surface between the doors.

Use warm water and baking soda solution—
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to
a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and
neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.

After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin
layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets
at the hinge side. This helps keep the gaskets
from sticking and bending out of shape.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot
water because the extreme temperature
difference may cause them to break.
Handle glass shelves carefully. Bumping
tempered glass can cause it to shatter.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts
in the dishwasher.

Behind the Refrigerator

Be careful when moving the refrigerator
away from the wall. All types of floor
coverings can be damaged, particularly
cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.

Raise the leveling legs located at the bottom
front of the refrigerator.

Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it
to position by pushing it straight in. Moving

the refrigerator in a side direction may
result in damage to the floor covering
or refrigerator.

Lower the leveling legs until they touch
the floor.

When pushing the refrigerator back, make
sure you don’t roll over the power cord or
icemaker supply line (on some models).
