WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT:

Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods
tightly.
For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion-
resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the
following cleaning instructions.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

4. 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:
Remove the base grille.
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.
Replace the base grille when finished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulb

IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, the light bulb in the
your new refrigerator may use LED technology. If your model
uses LED lighting and the light does not illuminate when the
refrigerator door is opened, call for assistance or service. See
Warranty for phone numbers.
Refrigerator Compartment Light
The refrigerator light bulb is located behind the control.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove the light shield by squeezing in on the sides and
pulling it straight down.
3. Remove the light bulb and replace it with an appliance bulb of
the same size and shape.
To replace the bulb in the refrigerator compartment with
an LED light bulb, order part number W10565137
(3.6 watts).
NOTE: Some LED replacement bulbs are not
recommended for wet/damp environments. The
refrigerator and freezer compartments are considered to
be wet/damp environments. If using a brand of LED bulb

packaging.
If an incandescent bulb is used to replace an LED bulb,
