The stainless steel doors and door handles (on some
models) can be cleaned with a commercially available stainless
steel cleaner. Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers

small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub
in the direction of the brush lines with a damp soft sponge. Do
not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.

Cleaning the Inside

types of floor coverings can be damaged, particularly cushioned
coverings and those with embossed surfaces.

refrigerator. Clean the interior with a baking soda solution of
one tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to one quart (1 liter) of

service technician drain the water supply system to prevent
serious property damage due to flooding.

cleaners containing bleach because these products can
scratch and weaken the paint finish. Do not wash tray in the

pushing it straight in. Moving the refrigerator in a side direction
may result in damage to the floor covering or refrigerator.

When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you don't
roll over the power cord or water supply line.
If you cut the water supply off, turn off the ice maker (pg. 21).
