Default Clean the fridge?

Pulling the TT outta storage, noticed the fridge has some (mold?) (mildew?) in it; what's the best/safest way to clean it?

If you still have the owners manual for the fridge, it might tell you what to use. You could also try to contact the fridge manufacture for help. I would think just some hot, soapy water would clean it. If not, maybe try a household mold remover.

Default Thanx - I'll try it!

I'll try contacting the fridge manufacturer; has anyone else ever experienced this? If so, what was your solution?

I had some mold in the fridge of my old HTT. Soap and water cleaned it right out.

I always make sure mine is wiped-down and dry when I put it away. I also use a gadget and a bungee cord that keeps the doors open a few inches.

Thanx to whoever suggested the Clorox wipes; worked like a charm! I also took the shelves to the basement sink for a good soaking/scrubbing in Clorox water. Now the fridge is clean as new!

I also clean the refrigerator after each trip. Then, I put crumpled newspapers inside the unit to trap any residual moisture. I have done this for the past four years, and I have not had a mold problem.
