Exterior Cleaning
Please see the exterior cleaning information specific to your
model.
Style 1 - Smooth Door
IMPORTANT: Damage to smooth finish due to improper use of
cleaning products, or using non-recommended cleaning
products, is not covered under the warranty. Sharp or blunt
instruments will mar the finish.
NOTE: Paper towels scratch and may dull the clear coat of the
painted door. To avoid possible damage use only soft clean
clothes to polish and wipe the door.
Style 2 - Stainless Steel
IMPORTANT:
■ Use recommended stainless steel cleaners and cloths only.
Damage to stainless steel finish due to improper use of
cleaning products, or using non-recommended cleaning
products, is not covered under the warranty.
■ Avoid exposing stainless steel appliances to caustic or
corrosive elements such as high salt, high moisture or high
humidity environments. Damage due to exposure to these
elements is not covered under the warranty.
NOTES:
■ If unintentional contact does occur, clean plastic part with a
sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with
a soft cloth.
■ Just because a cleaner is a liquid does not mean it is
nonabrasive. Many liquid cleansers formulated to be gentle on
tile and smooth surfaces still damage stainless steel.
■ Citric acid permanently discolors stainless steel. To avoid
damaging the finish of your stainless steel refrigerator:
Interior Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Refrigerator shelves with under-shelf, LED lighting
are not dishwasher safe.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. 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.
NOTE: 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.
3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Condenser Cleaning
There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home
operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy
or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the
condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months to ensure
maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove the base grille.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the
open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the
condenser.
4. Replace the base grille when finished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Lights
The lights in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments are
LEDs which do not need to be replaced. If the lights do not
illuminate when the door or drawer is opened, call for assistance
or service. In the U.S.A., call 1-800-253-1301. In Canada call
1-800-807-6777.
