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).

4. Determine whether your refrigerator exterior is painted metal,

brushed aluminum or stainless steel and choose the

appropriate cleaning method.

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. For additional protection

against damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance

wax (or auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax

plastic parts.

Brushed aluminum: Wash 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.

Stainless steel finish: Wash with a clean sponge or soft

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

or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new

and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that

you use the manufacturer's approved Stainless Steel

Cleaner & Polish.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!

Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into

contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,

dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental contact does

occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in

warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. To order the

cleaner, see the "Accessories" section.

5. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal

home operating environments. If the environment is

particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in

the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to

3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

Remove the base grille. See "Base Grille" graphic or

"Base Grille" section.

Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,

the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area

of the condenser.

Replace the base grille when finished.

6. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulb

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

replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, and wattage.

Changing the Refrigerator Light Bulb

1. Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Slide shield toward back of compartment to release from light

assembly.

3. Replace burned-out bulb(s) with an appliance light bulb no

greater than 40 watts.

4. Replace light bulb cover by inserting tabs on light shield into

liner holes on each side of light assembly. Slide shield toward

front of unit until it locks into place.

NOTE: Do not force shield beyond locking point; doing so

may damage light shield.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Freezer Light Bulb

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

NOTE: May need to remove upper freezer shelf or basket to

access light assembly.

2. Squeeze and pull rear of light shield cover toward you to

release tabs and pull down.

3. Replace burned-out bulb with appliance bulb no greater than

40 watts.

4. Insert front tabs of light cover into liner and snap back portion

over light assembly.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Power Interruptions

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

doors closed (depending on your model) to help food stay cold

and frozen.

If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the

following:

Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.

Place 2 lbs. (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic

foot (28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for

2 to 4 days.

If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or

can perishable food at once.

REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled

one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of

baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be

refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the

condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.
