Vacation
and
Moving
Care
Short vacations;..
No need to shut off the refrigerator if you will be
away for less than four weeks. Use up perishables;
freeze other items.
1. Turn off your ice maker.
2. Shut off the water supply to the ice maker.
3. Empty the ice bin.
4. Make sure all ice crescents are dispensed out of
the mechanism.
Long vacations...
Remove all the food if you are going for a month or
more. At least a day ahead, turn off the water supply
to the ice maker. When the last load of ice drops, turn
off the ice maker.
Unplug the refrigerator and clean it...rinse well and
dry. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both
doors...keeping them open far enough for air to get in.
This will keep odour and mold from building up.
Moving...
Shut off the ice maker water supply a day ahead of
time. Disconnect the water line. After the last supply of
ice drops, lift the signal arm to turn off the ice maker.
Make sure all ice crescents are dispensed out of the
mechanism.
Remove all food. Pack frozen foods in dry ice.
Unplug the refrigerator and clean it thoroughly.
Remove everything that comes out. Wrap all parts
well and tape them together so they don't shift and
rattle.
Also, remove the water supply tank behind the
meat drawer by:
1. Disconnecting water inlet and outlet tubes at the
top of the tank.
2. Removing three mounting screws from the tank.
3. Draining the tank.
Re-install the empty tank, and remember to
check for tight water connections when the refrigerator
is hooked up at your new location.
Screw in the levelling rollers; tape the doors shut;
tape the electric cord to the cabinet. When you get to
your new home, put everything back, level the
refrigerator, reconnect the water supply and refer to
page 4.
To restart refrigerator, see "Using Your Refrigerator."
