CARE AND CLEANING
Protecting your investment
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains 
appearance and prevents odor build-up. 
Wipe up any spills immediately and clean 
the freezer and refrigerator compartments 
at least twice a year. When cleaning, take 
the following precautions:
•  Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with 
bleach to clean stainless steel.
•  Do not wash any removable parts in  
a dishwasher.
•  Always unplug the electrical power cord 
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
•  Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do 
not use razor blades or other sharp 
instruments which can scratch the 
appliance surface.
•  Do not remove the serial plate.
Do not use abrasive cleaners such as win-
dow sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes, 
flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concen-
trated detergents, bleaches or cleansers 
containing petroleum products on plastic 
parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet 
liners. Do not use paper towels, metallic 
scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning 
materials or strong alkaline solutions.
CAUTION
Pull the refrigerator straight out to 
move it. Shifting it from side to side may 
damage flooring. Be careful not to 
move the refrigerator beyond the 
plumbing connections.
NOTE
If you set your temperature controls 
to turn o cooling, power to lights and 
other electrical components will contin-
ue until you unplug the power cord from 
the wall outlet.
IMPORTANT
If you store or move your refrigerator in 
freezing temperatures, be sure to com-
pletely drain the water supply system. 
Failure to do so could result in water 
leaks when the refrigerator is put back 
into service. Contact a service represen-
tative to perform this operation.
