English CLEANING THE INSIDE Clean the inside of the refrigerator at least twice a year. Turn the temperature control dial to "OFF" unplug the refrigerator and remove food and shelves. Wash inside with warm water and baking soda solution. (2 tablespoons of baking soda to one quart of water), then rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaners such as harsh detergents, scouring powder or sprays containing bleach, ammonia, or other chemicals that may cause odors inside the refrigerator or damage to the refrigerator. Wash the ice cube tray, drawers and shelves in mild detergent solution, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator. Change the box every three months. Vacation and Moving WHEN NOT IN USE: If your refrigerator will not be used for a period of time turn the unit off and unplug it. Clean the refrigerator (see care and Cleaning instructions). MOVING THE REFRIGERATOR: When transporting the refrigerator it must be kept in the upright position. If the refrigerator is inadvertently tilted beyond 45 degrees, place it in the upright position and wait 24 hours before plugging in. Defrosting Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the freezer compartment becomes 1/8" thick. Never us a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils. (A punctured cooling coil will cause serious damage to the product and will void the warranty). We recommend using a plastic scraper. To defrost, remove foods and ice cube tray from the freezer compartment. Put the drip tray in place and set the temperature control dial to the 'OFF" position. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator. After defrosting, empty water from the drip tray and wash the drip tray in warm water. 21 43 0 765 8
