BEVERAGE CENTER CARE Cleaning WARNING 6. Clean the condenser coils regularly. They are located behind the base grille. Coils may need to be cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save energy. ■ Remove the base grille. See "Base Grille." ■ Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty. ■ Replace the base grille. 7. Plug in beverage center or reconnect power. Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. Clean the beverage center about once a month to avoid build-up of odors. Wipe up spills immediately. To clean your beverage center: 1. Unplug beverage center or disconnect power. 2. Remove all racks and shelves from inside the beverage center. 3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. ■ To protect wood trim pieces, do not immerse the entire rack into water when cleaning. ■ Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can scratch or damage materials. ■ To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt [26 g to 0.95 L] of water). 4. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners, or cleaners containing chlorine. These can scratch or damage materials. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection against damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance wax (or auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax plastic parts.

To order the cleaner, see "Accessories." IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only! Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces, dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental contact does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. 5. Replace the racks and shelves.
