Cleaning

your refrigerator
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. But both should be cleaned about once a month to help prevent odors from building up. Of course, spills should be wiped up right away. To clean your refrigerator, unplug it, turn the Refrigerator Control to OFF, take out all removable parts, and clean it according to the following directions.

Inside.
You can wash the parts you take out in the sink with a mild soap or mild detergent and warm water. Harsh cleansers, scouring powders and solvents should never be used on any part of your refrigerator. Wash the walls with a solution of two tablespoons (30s) of baking soda mixed with one quart (IL) of warm water. Rinse well and dry. Let the freezer warm up with the door open for 10 or 15 minutes so the cloth doesn�t stick. The inside of the door, including the gasket, should be washed with warm water and a mild soap or mild detergent. Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products. They can damage the gasket and plastic finish.

Outside.
Wash the outside with warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse well and dry. Waxing is recommended in high humidity areas. Use a good auto paste wax or an appliance wax on painted metal surfaces. Do not use on plastic because it may damage these parts.

Underneath.
Lift Up the Grill-holding Tabs

To remove the base grill, open the door and lift up on the two tabs that show through the grill at both ends near the top. When you�ve lifted the tabs, swing the top of the grill forward. Lift the grill off the bottom supports. The defrost water pan is on the left and the condenser is on the right Pull out the defrost pan and wash. There may be tape holding it in place. Remove the tape and lift the pan over the wire brace in front of it Make sure the notched corner is in the rear when you put it back, and that you push it all the way in. The defrost drain tube should point into the pan. Clean dust from the condenser with a vacuum cleaner. The condenser should be cleaned every two or three months. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, make sure you don�t slide the refrigerator out farther than the ice maker water supply line allows. Heat IS removed from your refrigerator and transferred to the condenser. From there, the heat is spread into the room. Dust on the condenser insulates it and reduces the heat leaving it. If the heat can�t get out easily, the refrigerator will have to run longer to keep food cold.

It IS a waste of electrlclty to set the refrigerator and freezer to temperatures colder than they need to be. If Ice cream is firm in the freezer and drinks are as cold as your family likes them, that�s cold enough. Keep the Power Saving Control on OFF unless moisture forms on the refrigerator exterior Make sure your refrigerator IS not next to a heat source such as a range, water heater, furnace, radiator, or In direct sunlIght. 3
