particularly cushioned coverings and those
with embossed surfaces.

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,

Protect the paint finish. The finish on the
outside of the refrigerator is a high quality,
baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it
will stay new-looking and rust free for years.
Apply a coat of kitchen/appliance wax
when the refrigerator is new, and then
at least twice a year.

baking soda in the fresh food and freezer
compartments.

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. Do not use cleansing powders
or other abrasive cleaners.
