Cleaning
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 corrosion-
resistant but not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion
of your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using
