-
Maintain the Drawer Interiors: Empty the drawers periodically and clean the interior surfaces with warm water and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly before restocking to prevent mold growth, bacteria, and food contamination.
-
Inspect Drawer Seals: Check the drawer seals regularly for wear, cracks, or damage. Replace any damaged or worn seals to ensure a tight seal, which helps maintain proper temperature and cooling efficiency.
