Care and Maintenance

SOME IMPORTANT RULES FOR THE CORRECT USE OF

THE REFRIGERATOR

• Never place hot foods in the refrigerator.

• Never place spoiled foods in the refrigerator.

• Don’t overload the refrigerator.

• 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 possible formations of condensation, mold or

odors.

• Turn the temperature control to the “OFF” position, unplug the unit and remove the food and interior accessories.

• Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking

soda to a quart of water.

• Wash the baskets / crisper and interior accessories with a mild detergent solution.

• The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

Caution: Failure to unplug the appliance could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

CLEANING THE APPLIANCE

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your refrigerator-freezer if

you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need

to take the proper steps to protect your food.

POWER FAILURE

Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean

and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if neces-

sary.

VACATION TIME

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the unit. To avoid damaging the leveling legs (some models), turn

them all the way in to the base.

IF YOU MOVE

VEGETABLE CRISPER

The tray at the bottom of the refrigerator is covered to retain moisture. The crisper compartment will enable you to store

vegetables and fruits which would otherwise dry out rapidly.
