CARE AND CLEANING

Vacation and Moving Tips
Short Vacations: Leave the unit operating
during vacations of less than 3 weeks.
Long Vacations: If the appliance will not
be used for several months, remove all
food and unplug the power cord. Clean
and dry the interior thoroughly. Leave the
door open slightly, blocking it open if nec-
essary, to prevent odor and mold growth.
Moving: Disconnect the power cord plug
from the wall outlet. Remove foods, then
defrost, and clean the appliance. Secure
all loose items such as base panel, bas-
kets, and shelves by taping them securely
in place to prevent damage. In the moving
vehicle, secure unit in an upright posi-
tion to prevent movement. Also protect
outside of the appliance with a blanket, or
similar item.
