Storing the Refrigerator

Vacations
If you will be gone for a month or less, leave the con-
trols at the usual settings.
During longer absences:
a) remove all food,
b) shut off the ice maker (if installed) and the valve
where you tapped into the water line to supply the
refrigerator,
c) disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical
outlet,
Care and Cleaning
Refer to the chart on the following page for specific
refrigerator cleaning guidelines.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning.
Cleaning Under the Refrigerator
Your refrigerator can be rolled out for cleaning the floor
underneath. Raise the locking feet if engaged (see page
2). Pull the refrigerator straight out from the wall.

Replacing a Light Bulb

CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord before replacing light bulb(s). Wear gloves as protection
against possible broken glass.
Always use a standard 40 or 60 watt appliance bulb.
Refrigerator
To replace a light bulb at the upper rear, unscrew the
bulb located in the center opening on the bottom of the
control cover. The replacement bulb can then be
screwed in. If more access is required for bulb replace-
ment, grasp the control cover in the two lower rear
"finger tabs", pull down slightly to clear retainer tabs
and slide the cover forward until it is free. After replac-
ing the bulb, align the control cover on to the ribs and
slide it straight back until it snaps onto the retainer
tabs.

easily removable. Ship the refrigerator in an upright
position with the doors taped shut.

Condenser
A clean condenser means more efficient refrigerator
operation. Thanks to the unique design of the No
Clean
condenser, there is no longer a need for routine
condenser cleaning in normal home usage surround-
ings.
Some operating environments may be particularly
dusty or greasy. In these situations, the condenser can
be periodically cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.

appliance bulb; (4) pivot the shield up into place, snap-
ping the tabs into the slots.
Dispenser Light (Dispenser Models Only)
For replacement, use a 120V, 7 watt bulb. Disconnect
the power cord before replacing the light bulb.
