For cleaning the interior bins, shelves, and other items, use mild detergent and hand wash them. Handle tempered glass carefully because it's designed to shatter into small, pebble-sized pieces. Since glass shelves and covers can be heavy, use both hands when removing them to prevent dropping.

• Why to Clean the Interior of your KitchenAid Refrigerator: The air circulates between freezer and the refrigerator sections. This means that any odors from one section can easily transfer to the other. To eliminate these odors, it's essential to thoroughly clean both sections.
• Advice How To Eliminate or Reduce Odors: To maintain food freshness and cleanliness, follow these guidelines:

  • Always keep foods tightly wrapped or covered to prevent them from drying out.
  • Wipe up spills immediately to avoid odors and bacteria growth.
  • Clean both the refrigerator and freezer about once a month.
  • Organize the refrigerator and freezer, including crisper drawers, to effectively manage food freshness.
  • Discard any spoiled or rotten food promptly.
• How to Clean the Interior, Drawers and Shelfs:

  • Remove all food from the refrigerator.
  • Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect the power supply.
  • Hand wash, rinse, and dry all removable parts and interior surfaces. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth with mild detergent in warm water for cleaning.
  • Plug the refrigerator back in or reconnect the power supply.

Spillovers inside the refrigerator may get into the slide control of the crisper bins or shelves and cause them to stick. If the spillover is heavy, using a soft cloth and mild dish soap may be necessary to clean the frame.
