Vacations
If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while you're away, use
up any perishables and freeze other items.
If you choose to turn the refrigerator off before you leave, follow
these steps.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Turn the control to the off position. See "Using the Control."
3. Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.
4. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop
them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and
mold from building up.
Moving
When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow
these steps to prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Turn the Control to the off position. See "Using the Control."
3. Unplug refrigerator.
4. Empty water from the defrost pan.
5. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.
6. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
7. Screw in the leveling legs so they don't scrape the floor. See
"Adjust the Door."
8. Tape the doors shut and the power cord to the refrigerator
cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to
"Installation Instructions" for preparation instructions.
