Important information to know about glass shelves and
covers:

theyarecold.Shelvesandcoversmaybreakifexposedto
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter into
many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves
and covers are heavy. Use special care when removing them to
avoid impact from dropping.
1. Remove all food and turn the refrigerator OFF.
2. Disconnect power to the refrigerator.
3. Clean the walls, floor, ceiling of cabinet interior, drawers,
shelves and gaskets according to the instructions on page
12.
4. Dilute mild detergent and brush solution into crevices using a
plastic bristle brush. Let stand for 5 minutes. Rinse surfaces
with warm water. Dry surfaces with a soft, clean cloth.
5. Wash and dry all bottles, containers and jars. Discard spoiled
or expired items.
6. Wrap or store odor-causing foods in tightly sealed containers
to prevent recurring odors.
7. Reconnect power to refrigerator and return food to refrig-
erator.
8. Allow the refrigerator to cool.
9. After 24 hours, check if odor has been eliminated.

• Avoidovercrowdingrefrigeratorshelves.Overcrowding
reduces air circulation around food and causes refrigerator to
run longer.
• Avoidaddingtoomuchwarmfoodtorefrigeratoratonetime.
This overloads compartments and slows rate of cooling.
• Donotusealuminumfoil,waxpaper,orpapertowelingas
shelf liners. This decreases air flow and causes refrigerator to
run less efficiently.
