cleaning
always keep the refrigerator clean. Cleaning the refrigerator is
usually done after it is defrosted or put into storage. use luke-
warm weak soda solution to clean the interior liner of the re-
frigerator. use warm water only to clean the finned evaporator,
gasket, ice tray and shelves. Do not spray liquids near electrical
outlets, connections or the refrigerator components.
Never use strong chemicals or abrasives to clean
these parts, as the protective surfaces will be
damaged.
To keep the refrigerator operating efficiently and safely, peri-
odic inspection and cleaning of several components once or
twice a year is recommended:
Check the lower vent, upper vent and area between these
openings for any obstructions such as bird/insect nests,
spider webs, etc.
Make sure the refrigerator area is free from combustible
material, gasoline and other flammable vapors or liquids.
Clean the coils on the back of the refrigerator. use a soft
bristled brush to dust off the coils.
