Refrigerator Shelves The shelves and door trays in your refrigerator are removable and adjustable to meet your storage needs. NOTES: ■■ Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make finding the exact item you want easier. It will also reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open and save energy. ■■ The refrigerator interior parts are not dishwasher safe. Glass Shelves Important information to know about glass shelves and covers: Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping. To remove a shelf: 1. Remove items from the shelf. 2. Slide the shelf straight out to the stop. 3. Lift the back of the shelf past the stop. Pull the shelf out the rest of the way. To replace a shelf: 1. Slide the back of the shelf into the track in the wall of the cabinet. 2. Guide the front of the shelf into the shelf track. Be sure to slide the shelf in all the way. Cooler Compartment (on some models) The cooler compartment is the optimum place to store fresh meat, poultry, and fish. To remove and replace the drawer: 1. Slide drawer straight out to the stop. Lift the drawer from the slide rails and pull out the rest of the way. 2. Replace the drawer by placing it on the slide rails and pushing it back into position past the drawer stop. Fan The fan improves temperature distribution inside the refrigerator compartment, allowing better preservation of stored food. By default, the fan is on. NOTE: Do not block the air intake area. Freezer Compartment To increase storage space and for larger items, the freezer compartment can be used without the baskets. Remove the baskets and place the items directly on the glass shelves. REFRIGERATOR CARE Cleaning WARNING Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. Periodically clean the appliance with a cloth and a solution of lukewarm water and neutral detergent specifically for refrigerator interiors. Clean the outside of the appliance and the door seal with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth. IMPORTANT: ■■ Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly. ■■ For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosionresistant but not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the following cleaning instructions. ■■ The buttons and control panel display must not be cleaned with alcohol or alcohol-derived substances but with a dry cloth. ■■ The refrigeration system pipes are located near the defrost pan and can become hot. Periodically clean them with a vacuum cleaner. 14
