BEVERAGE CENTER CARE
Cleaning
Clean the beverage center about once a month to avoid build-up
of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
To clean your beverage center:
1. Unplug beverage center or disconnect power.
2. Remove all racks and shelves from inside the beverage
center.
3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
■ To protect wood trim pieces, do not immerse the entire
rack into water when cleaning.
■ 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. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do
not use abrasive or harsh cleaners, or cleaners containing
chlorine. These can scratch or damage materials. 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.
NOTE: To keep your stainless steel beverage center looking
like new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested
that you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel
Cleaner & Polish. To order the cleaner, see “Accessories.”
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.
5. Replace the racks and shelves.
6. Clean the condenser coils regularly. They are located behind
the base grille. Coils may need to be cleaned as often as
every other month. This may help save energy.
■ Remove the base grille. See “Base Grille.”
■ Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to
clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
■ Replace the base grille.
7. Plug in beverage center or reconnect power.
Changing the Light Bulb
NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your beverage center. Be
sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, and
wattage.
To change the light bulb:
1. Unplug beverage center or disconnect power.
2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screw located at the
back of the light shield. Pull the light shield back to remove
the tabs from the appliance. Remove the light shield.
3. Replace the bulb.
4. Reinstall the light shield by inserting the tabs. Align the holes
and insert the screw. Tighten the screw.
5. Plug in beverage center or reconnect power.
Vacation and Moving Care
Vacations
If you choose to turn the beverage center off before you leave,
follow these steps.
1. Remove all wine bottles from the beverage center.
2. Unplug the beverage center.
3. Clean the beverage center. See “Cleaning.”
4. Tape a rubber or wood block to the top of the door to prop it
open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold
from building up.
