➢ Disconnect refrigerator.
➢ Clean the following items using the
appropriate instructions in the How to
Clean Your Refrigerator table.
–Walls, floor and ceiling of cabinet
interior
– Drawers, shelves and gaskets
according to the instructions in this
section.
➢ Pay special attention to clean all
crevices by completing the following
steps.
– Dilute mild detergent and brush
solution into crevices using a plas-
tic bristle brush.
– Let stand for 5 minutes.
– Rinse surfaces with warm water.
Dry surfaces with a soft, clean
cloth.
➢ Wash and dry all bottles, containers
and jars. Discard spoiled or expired
items.
➢ Wrap or store odor-causing foods in
tightly sealed containers to prevent
reoccurring odors.
➢ Connect power to refrigerator and
return food to refrigerator.
➢ After 24 hours, check if odor has been
eliminated.
If odor is still present:
➢ Remove drawers and place on top
shelf of refrigerator.
➢ Pack refrigerator and freezer sections
– including doors – with crumpled
sheets of black and white newspaper.
➢ Place charcoal briquettes randomly on
crumpled newspaper in both freezer
and refrigerator compartments.
➢ Close doors and let stand 24-48
hours.
Energy saving ideas
➢ When placing refrigerator into final
position, allow for
1
⁄2" clearance around
the top and sides of the refrigerator to
supply ample ventilation for optimum
energy efficiency.
➢ Avoid overcrowding refrigerator
shelves. This reduces air circulation
around food and causes refrigerator to
run longer.
➢ Avoid adding too much warm food to
refrigerator at one time. This over-
loads 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 refrig-
erator to run less efficiently.
➢ A freezer that is
2
⁄3 full runs most effi-
ciently.
➢ Locate refrigerator in coolest part of
room. Avoid areas of direct sunlight, or
near heating ducts, registers or other
heat producing appliances. If this is
not possible, isolate exterior by using
a section of cabinet or an added layer
of insulation.
➢ Refer to Owner's Manual section on
How to Adjust the Temperature
Controls (page 11) for recommended
control settings.
➢ Clean door gaskets every three
months according to Owner's Manual
cleaning instructions. This will assure
that door seals properly and refrigera-
tor runs efficiently.
➢ Take time to organize items in refriger-
ator to reduce time that door is open.
➢ Be sure your doors are closing
securely by leveling refrigerator as
instructed in your Owner's Manual.
➢ Clean condenser coils as indicated in
the Owner’s Manual every 3 months.
This will increase energy efficiency
and cooling performance.
To avoid personal injury or property
damage, observe the following:
➢ Allow light bulb to cool.
➢ Wear gloves when replacing light

CAUTION
To avoid electrical shock which can
cause severe personal injury or death,
disconnect power to refrigerator
