Refrigerator Care Checklist
Your refrigerator will give you years of trouble
free service if you do these simple checks
every three to six months:
● Keep the food compartment and the
freezer clean. See "Cleaning" section.
● Defrost the refrigerator as necessary. See
"Defrosting" section.
● Make sure the door seals correctly. See
"Door Sealing" section.
● Be aware of any cooling changes that
are not because of weather, loading, or
control changes. If changes occur, contact
your dealer or service center.
● Make sure the air flow in the lower intake
vent, through the refrigerator coils and
condenser, and out the upper exhaust
vent is not blocked or decreased.
● Make sure the area behind the
refrigerator is clear. Do not use the
area behind the refrigerator for storage
of anything, especially combustible
materials, gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids.
Defrosting
Excess frost decreases the cooling
performance of the refrigerator. Defrost the
refrigerator and freezer as necessary.

The cooling fins of the refrigerator operates
at temperature below freezing and will form
frost from humidity naturally, which is always
present in the air. The humidity inside the
refrigerator increases:
–
With higher outside temperature and
humidity.
–
With the storage of non-sealed fresh
foods or warm foods storage.
–
With the amount of time that the door(s)
are open.
–
With any air leakage into the refrigerator.
Cleaning
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. If
this is not practical, wring excess moisture
out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around
switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution -
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to
a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and
neutralizes odors.
After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin
layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at
the hinge side. This helps keep the gaskets
from sticking and bending out of shape.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves (if
equipped) with hot water because the
extreme temperature difference may
cause them to break. Handle glass shelves
carefully. Bumping tempered glass can cause
it to shatter.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in
the dishwasher.
Cleaning the Outside
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean
cloth lightly dampened with kitchen appliance
wax or mild liquid dish detergent. Dry and
polish with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish
cloth or wet towel. These may leave a residue
that can erode the paint. Do not use scouring
