ENERGY SAVING TIPS AND CARE AND CLEANING
Condenser
The condenser underneath the cabinet does not require fre-
quent cleaning; however, sasfactory cooling depends on ad-
equate venlaon over this heat exchanger. It is recommended
to annually clean the condenser by vacuuming and brushing.
To access the condenser, the unit must be pulled out from the
installaon, and the lower machine compartment access cover
removed.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the condenser.
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air ow openings
in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or
vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area (see page 4).

The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and
thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive scouring
cleaners.

Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. DO NOT
use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted de-
tergent.

the glass door model. DO NOT use any abrasive cleaners.
Door Gasket
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water, a bak-
ing soda soluon or a mild scouring powder.
In the Event of a Power Failure
Minimize the number of door openings to prevent a gradual rise
in temperature while the power is o.

ten (10) minutes to restart.

quanes of warm contents are placed within refrigerated
storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next
