The freezer basket can be used to store bags of frozen fruits and
vegetables that may slide off freezer shelves.

2. Lift the front of the basket and slide it out the rest of the way.

rails. Lift the basket front slightly while pushing it past the
guide rail stops and slide basket in the rest of the way.
DOOR FEATURES
Your model may have some or all of these features. Features that
can be purchased separately as product accessories are labeled
with the word “Accessory.” Not all accessories will fit all models.
If you are interested in purchasing one of the accessories, please
call the toll-free number on the cover or in the “Assistance or
Service” section.
Door Rails
The door rails may be removed for easier cleaning.
Snap-on Door Rails
To remove and replace the rails:
1. Remove the rails by pushing in slightly on the front of the
bracket while pulling out on the inside tab. Repeat these
steps for the other end of the rail.
2. Replace the rails by aligning the ends of the brackets with the
buttons on the sides of the door liner. Firmly snap bracket
and rail assembly onto the tabs above the shelf as shown.
Drop-in Door Rails
To remove and replace the rails:
1. Remove the rails by pulling straight up on each end of the rail.
2. Replace the rails by sliding the shelf rail into the slots on the
door and pushing the rail straight down until it stops.
Door Bins
Large door bins hold gallon containers and the smaller door bins
hold 2-liter bottles. The door bins are removable for easy
cleaning and adjusting.
NOTE: Place large door bins in the upper part of the refrigerator
door so the door will close properly. Small door bins will fit in
either the upper or lower part of the door.
To remove and replace the door bins:
1. Remove the bin by lifting it up and pulling it out.
2. Replace the bin by insert the hooks into the slots on both
sides of the refrigerator door. Push the bin down to lock it into
place.
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent
odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.
Cleaning your refrigerator
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,
crispers, etc.
3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
■ Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning
waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior
and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels,
scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can
scratch or damage materials.
■ To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a
mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs. to 1 qt.
[26 g to .95 L] of water).
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,
or fire.
