Chapter 7.

THE REFRIGERATOR
This is not a Maintenance/PMC job. However, if you are going
to clean the refrigerator, do it first—before anything else. If the
freezer is to be cleaned, it should have been turned off earlier so
that it is defrosted and ready to clean.

The freezer is easy to clean once the ice is loose. Put any loose
ice and ice cube trays in the sink and proceed to clean. If
possible, don't remove anything else. Rather, move items toward
the right, spray the left with Red Juice, and wipe. (If a little Red
Juice gets on the frozen-food containers, it won't hurt a thing.)
Now move items from the right to the left and repeat. You may
have to do that in three moves or more. If the freezer is
-
completely full, remove only as much as you have to. When you
move items to make room for
cleaning, move them onto the
top shelf of the refrigerator.

Inside the refrigerator itself, start
with the top shelf. These interior
shelves don't usually need to be
emptied. Items on the shelves
should not be removed—just
moved to the right. Then clean
the racks with Red Juice and a
white pad, followed by a
cleaning cloth to wipe dry. If
the shelves are too full to move
things to the side, then remove
only enough so you can move the rest from side to side. When
you remove items from a shelf, set them on a convenient
countertop or on the floor just in front of the refrigerator in the
order they were removed. After cleaning, replace the items in
reverse order.
Do the next lower shelf and the next until you are finished.
Drawers and bins should be removed from the refrigerator
