Cleaning
inside
Door handles and trim—Clean with a cloth
dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft
cloth.
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean
cloth lightly dampened with mild liquid dish
detergent. Dry 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 damage the finish. Do not
use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach
or cleaners containing bleach because these
products can scratch and damage the finish.
Stainless steel—Regularly clean and polish
the stainless steel door panels and handles (on
some models) with a commercially available
stainless steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel
Magic™ to preserve and protect the fine finish.
To purchase Stainless Steel Magic and the
Monogram polishing cloth, visit
Monogram.com or call 800.444.1845. For
Stainless Steel Magic, order part number
WX10X15. For Monogram polishing cloth,
order part number WX72X10001.
Do not use appliance wax or polish on the
stainless steel.
To help prevent odors, leave an open box

compartments.
Turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse
box before cleaning. If this is not practical,
wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth
when cleaning around switches, lights or
controls.
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

dry.
Other parts of the refrigerator—including
door gaskets, meat and vegetable drawers,
ice storage bin and all plastic parts—can be
cleaned the same way. After cleaning the door
gaskets, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to
the door gaskets sealing surface on the hinge
side. This helps keep the gaskets from sticking
and bending out of shape.
CAUTION
Do not clean glass shelves
or covers with warm water when they are
cold. Glass shelves and covers may break
if exposed to sudden temperature changes
or impact, such as bumping or dropping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into
many small pieces if it breaks.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts
in the dishwasher.
ATTENTION
Ne nettoyez pas les
clayettes ou couvercles en verre avec de
l’eau chaude lorsqu’ils sont froids. Les
clayettes et couvercles en verre peuvent se
briser s’ils sont exposés à une variation de
température soudaine, ou soumis à un
impact s’ils sont heurtés ou échappés. S’il
se brise, le verre trempé est conçu pour se
fracturer en un grand nombre de petits
éclats.
Ne lavez aucune pièce en plastique du
réfrigérateur au lave-vaisselle.
