Power Interruptions

• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other
causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs.
When power has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet. If outage is
for a prolonged period, inspect and discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer
and refrigerator. Clean inside the refrigerator before reusing.

Vacation and Moving Care

• For long vacations or absences, empty food from refrigerator and freezer, move
the temperature DIAL to the OFF position and clean the refrigerator and door
gaskets according to "General cleaning" section. Prop doors open, so air may
circulate inside. When moving, always move the refrigerator vertically. Do not
move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the sealed system could occur.
