CLEANING
Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning.

appliance with a soft cloth and a solution of a
tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water
or some mild detergent.
• Wash shelves in a mild detergent solution, then
dry and wipe with a soft cloth.
• It is important to keep the area clean where the
door seals against the cabinet. Clean this area
with a soapy cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth and
let dry.
Note: Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or
alcohol on the appliance. Ammonia or alcohol can
damage the appearance of the appliance. Never
use any commercial or abrasive cleaners or sharp
objects on any part of the appliance.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few
hours and should not affect the internal temperature
of the appliance if the number of times the door is
opened is kept to a minimum.
If power is lost, the appliance will keep all settings
in its memory and will resume normal functioning
automatically when power is restored.
Note: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting
to restart the refrigerator if operation has been
interrupted.

defrost function and does not require manual
defrosting. Defrost water from the appliance is
channeled into a drip tray located above the

during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used
