Thermador KBUIT4250E Use & Care Manual page 14

Your refrigerator is equipped with the Holiday feature, which is
designed for the traveler who wishes to turn off the lights and ice
maker. By selecting this feature, the temperature set points remain
unchanged, the ice maker will be disabled and the interior lights
will turn off. For most efficient refrigerator operation, it is
recommended to exit the Holiday feature when it is no longer
required.
If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While You're
Away:
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. Press the HOLIDAY pad.
3. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, shut off water
supply to the ice maker.
4. Empty the ice bin.
5. When you return from vacation, press HOLIDAY to return to
normal operation.
If You Choose to Turn the Refrigerator Off Before You
Leave:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:
• Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day
ahead of time.
• When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm
to the OFF (up) position.
3. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control
(or Refrigerator Control) to OFE See "Using the Control(s)."
4. Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.
5. 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. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:
• Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day
ahead of time.
• Disconnect the water line from the back of the refrigerator.
• When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm
to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the OFF
(right) setting.
2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food
in dry ice.
3. Empty the ice bin.
4. Depending on the model, turn the Thermostat Control or
Refrigerator Control to OFE See the "Using the Control(s)"
section.
5. Unplug refrigerator.
6. Empty water from the defrost pan.
7. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.
8. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
9. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so it
rolls more easily OR screw in the leveling legs so they don't
scrape the floor. See the "Level Refrigerator" section in the
Installation Instructions.
10. Tape the doors closed and tape the power cord to the
refrigerator cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to
the Installation Instructions for preparation instructions. Also, if
your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, remember to
reconnect the water supply to the refrigerator.
