With a little care, you can keep your cabinetry looking beautiful for many years.

 

Clean cabinets with a lint-free cloth dampened with mild detergent or soap and water. Dry immediately with a lint-free cloth. Wipe up spills, splatters and water marks as they occur, keeping the surface dry.

 

Use an emulsion non-solvent cleaner and polish designed for kitchen

cabinets, such as Murphy's Oil Soap, Old English and lemon oil, on clean surfaces.

Products containing wax or silicone polishes are not recommended.  Use of these products can build-up on the furniture, attract dirt, smoke and other pollutants, and will cause the finish to soften and fail.

Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaners or abrasive pads. Avoid using

scouring pads or powdered cleansers, as these may scratch and

penetrate the surface, allowing food or moisture to enter and cause

deterioration of the finish.

 

Avoid extremes in room humidity and temperature. Too high or too low

humidity or temperature can cause wood to warp and panels to loosen.

Remove the doors and drawers of all cabinets adjacent to and above the oven during the cleaning cycle of self-cleaning models. The cleaning cycle generates heat that could affect the finish and surface of the cabinets.
