Maintenance Tips
-
Wipe the stainless‑steel exterior regularly using a soft microfiber cloth and mild non‑abrasive cleaner to protect the finish and minimize fingerprints.
-
Clean the interior monthly: remove shelves and drawers, wash with warm soapy water, dry thoroughly before reinserting.
-
Keep door gaskets clean and free from debris; inspect for warping or damage to maintain a tight seal and optimal cooling.
-
Avoid over‑filling so air vents inside the fridge and freezer remain unblocked, supporting consistent temperature and energy efficiency.
-
If equipped with an ice maker, empty and clean the bin periodically, and switch off the ice maker if unused for extended periods.
-
After defrost cycles or when you notice frost buildup, check that the freezer vents are unobstructed to maintain proper airflow.
-
Ensure the unit is level and sits with required clearances (especially behind and above) so cooling systems work efficiently and doors close properly.
-
If the appliance will be turned off for a long period: empty it, clean and dry thoroughly, prop the door slightly open to prevent odor or mould growth.
