If not use Lime Away then rinse it very well.Safer but not as fast you can use table vinegar.The vinegar will require more scrubbing but it is safer than Lime Away. If you use a carbon water filter for refrigerators or better yet R/O water you shouldn't have this problem again. [span class="edited"][Edited by Lindy 2004-08-14 06:54][/span]
