REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. 
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid 
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

Exterior Cleaning

Please see the exterior cleaning information specific to your 
model.

Style 1 - Smooth Door 

IMPORTANT: Damage to smooth finish due to improper use of 
cleaning products, or using non-recommended cleaning 
products, is not covered under the warranty. Sharp or blunt 
instruments will mar the finish. 

NOTE: Paper towels scratch and may dull the clear coat of the 
painted door. To avoid possible damage use only soft clean 
clothes to polish and wipe the door. 

Style 2 - Stainless Steel 

IMPORTANT: 

■

Damage to stainless steel finish due to improper use of 
cleaning products, or using non-recommended cleaning 
products, is not covered under the warranty. 

■

If unintentional contact does occur, clean plastic part with a 
sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly 
with a soft cloth.

■

Just because a cleaner is a liquid does not mean it is 
nonabrasive. Many liquid cleansers formulated to be gentle 
on tile and smooth surfaces still damage stainless steel. 

■

Citric acid permanently discolors stainless steel. To avoid 
damaging the finish of your stainless steel refrigerator:  

Interior Cleaning

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. 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.

NOTE: 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.

3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
