Care And Maintenance - Danby Diplomat DAR163BLDP Manual De Instructions Pare El Uso Y Cuidado De Su Unidad

CLEANING
To clean the inside, use a soft cloth and a mixture of
one tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water.
Other cleaning options are a mild soap suds solution, or
mild detergent. Wash glass shelves in a mild detergent
solution, then dry and wipe with a soft cloth. Clean the
outside with a soft damp cloth and some mild detergent
or appliance cleaner.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two
and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures.
However, you should minimize the number of door
openings while the power is off. During power failures
of longer duration, take steps to protect your food by
placing dry ice on top of packages.
IF YOU MOVE
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside
the unit. To avoid damaging the leveling legs, turn them
all the way into the base.
FOOD STORAGE
SUGGESTIONS
Fresh Food Compartment
• Never cover food compartment shelves with aluminum
foil or any other shelf covering material which may
prevent air circulation.
• Always remove porous store wrapping paper from
meats, poultry and fish. Meats should be wrapped
individually and placed in a dish for storage. Wrap
fish and poultry in foil or heavy waxed paper. Most
fish should be used the same day of purchase.
Packaged meats such as ham, bacon, dried beef, or
frankfurter, store best in their original packages.
• Allow warm foods to cool to room temperature before
placing them in the refrigerator.
• Always cover open dishes of food, especially left-
overs. Use leftovers within 2 or 3 days.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

VACATION TIME
For short vacation periods, leave the control knob at its
normal setting. During longer absences:
(a) remove all foods.
(b) disconnect power cord from electrical outlet.
(c) clean the refrigerator thoroughly, including drip tray
(defrost pan), located on the bottom of the unit.
(d) leave door open to avoid possible formations of
condensate, mold or odors.
Some Important Rules for the Correct Use of the
Refrigerator
• Never place hot foods in the refrigerator.
• Never place spoiled foods in the unit.
• Don't overload the unit.
• Don't open the door unless necessary.
• Should the refrigerator be stored without use for long
periods, it is suggested, after a careful
cleaning, to leave the door ajar to allow the air to
circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the
possibility of condensation, mold or odors.
