Cleaning Your Refrigerator

Clean the refrigerator about once a month to keep odors from

building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

1. Press and hold TEMP SETTING for 3 seconds to turn off

cooling.

2. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

3. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,

crispers, etc.

4. 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 0.95 L] of water).

5. Replace removable parts.

6. Use the appropriate cleaning method for your exterior ﬁnish.

Painted Metal: Wash exteriors with a clean sponge or soft

cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive

or harsh cleaners or cleaners designed for stainless steel. Dry

thoroughly with a soft cloth.

7. Clean the condenser coils regularly. Coils may need to

be cleaned as often as every other month. This may help

save energy.

■ Open the refrigerator door and remove the base grille by

removing 2 Phillips-head screws and pulling the grille

toward you.

■ Use a vacuum with an extended attachment to clean

the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.

■ Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille

with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping

the grille into place. Reinstall the screws.

8. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

9. Set temperature control to desired setting. See “Using

the Control.”

Changing the Light Bulb

NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will ﬁt your freezer. Be sure to

replace the bulb with an appliance bulb of the same size, shape,

and wattage.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove the light shield by squeezing the lens from the sides,

pushing back and pulling down.

3. Replace bulb with a 40-watt maximum appliance bulb or

an LED bulb rated for wet/damp locations.

NOTE: Some LED replacement light bulbs are not

recommended for wet/damp environments. Refrigerator

fresh food and freezer compartments are considered wet/

damp environments. Read and follow all instructions on

the LED packaging when replacing the factory-installed

LED bulb. A replacement LED bulb can be purchased from

an authorized dealer.

4. Replace the light shield.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Power Interruptions

If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door closed

to help food stay cold and frozen.

If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, consume or can

perishable food at once.

REMEMBER: If the condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
