CARE AND CLEANING
6.
•
Regular cleaning will extend the life of the product and reduce common problems.
•
Never use gasoline, benzene, or similar substances for cleaning.
•
Never use sharp abrasive tools, soap, household cleaners, detergents, or wax polish to clean the
product.
•
Dissolve one teaspoon of baking soda in one-half pint of water. Soak a cloth in the solution and wring
thoroughly. Wipe the inside of the refrigerator with the cloth and dry thoroughly.
•
Be careful not to allow water to enter the lamp housing or other electrical parts.
•
For extended periods of disuse, unplug the refrigerator, remove all food inside, clean it, and leave the
door ajar.
•
Check regularly that the door gaskets are clean. If they are not clean, clean them.
•
Remove all items from the product to remove the door and body shelves.
•
Remove the door shelves by pulling them up. Slide the shelves down to reinstall them after cleaning.
•
Never use chlorine-based cleaners or water to clean the exterior or chrome-plated parts of the
product. Chlorine causes abrasion on metal surfaces.
6.1 Avoiding bad odors
•
No odor-causing materials are used in the manufacture of our refrigerators. However, odors may be
emitted if food is stored improperly or if the interior surface of the product is not cleaned as required.
Please consider the following to avoid this problem:
•
It is important to keep the refrigerator clean.
•
Food residue, stains, etc. can cause odors.
•
For this reason, clean your refrigerator every 15 days with baking soda dissolved in water.
•
Never use detergent or soap.
•
Keep your foods in closed containers. Microorganisms released from uncovered containers can cause
unpleasant odors.
•
Never store expired or spoiled food in your refrigerator.
