paste of non-precipitating water softener (such as

brand) and water, or one teaspoon of citric
acid powder per pint of hot tap water. Soak until the
deposit disappears or becomes loose enough to rinse
away. Usually 30 minutes soaking time is adequate.
Avoid using wax on the spill shelf and trim.
Cleaning—Inside
Inside the fresh food and freezer compartments
should be cleaned at least once a year. Unplug the
refrigerator before cleaning. If this is not practical,
wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when
cleaning around switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution—about
a tablespoon of baking soda to a quart of water. This
both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse thoroughly
with water and wipe dry.
Other parts of the refrigerator—including door
gaskets, meat and vegetable drawers, ice storage
bin and all plastic parts-can be cleaned the same
way. After cleaning door gaskets, apply a thin layer of
petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at the hinge side.
This helps keep the gaskets from sticking and bending
out of shape. Do not use cleansing powders or other
abrasive cleaners.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot water
because the extreme temperature difference may
cause them to break.
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of
baking soda in the rear of the refrigerator, on the
top shelf. Change the box every three months. An
open box of baking soda in the freezer will absorb
stale freezer odors.
Do not wash any plastic parts from your
r~frigerator
in your automatic dishwasher.
Quick Serve dishes and lids can be cleaned in an
automatic dishwasher or by hand with liquid
dishwashing
detergent and water. You can remove
stains by soaking them in a bleach-and-water
solution—one part chlorine bleach to three parts
water. (Stubborn stains may require two or more
hours of soaking.) Use a plastic scouring pad to
remove burned-on soil. Do not use cleansing powders
or other abrasive cleaners.
