Always remove any debris or obstruction from
the front of the toekick to ensure optimum
performance.
To avoid scratching the fine finish of the
stainless steel, wipe in the same direction as the
grain when polishing or cleaning any stainless
steel surface. The grain on the outdoor/indoor
refrigerator runs top to bottom on all sides and
front to back on the top canopy.
Do not use appliance wax or polish on any
stainless steel surface.
Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,
bleach or cleaners containing bleach because
these products can scratch and damage the finish.
Warranty does not cover damage due to
improper cleaning methods.
For regular cleaning, use clean water and
a soft cloth. If stains persist, wash with mild
dish soap using a soft cloth or non-abrasive
pad. For more difficult stains, make a solution
consisting of 25% vinegar (white or red) and
75% water. Dip a soft cloth into the solution
and rub onto the stainless steel to remove the
stain. If these methods do not remove the
stains, dirt or debris, call 800.GE.CARES.

pitched hum or pulsating sound while
it is operating.
• You may hear the fans spinning at
high speeds. This happens when the

• If the door is open for over 3 minutes,
you may hear the fans come on in order
to cool the light bulbs.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when
