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

vegetable drawers, ice trays and all plastic parts-can
be cleaned the same way Do not use cleansing
powders or other abrasive cleaners
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking
soda in the rear of the refrigerator, on the top shelf.
