food locker.

WHEN YOU GO ON VACATION

If you choose to leave the refrigerator ON while you
are away, follow these steps to prepare your refrigerator
before you leave.
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. Empty the ice bin.
3. Turn OFF the Icemaker. NOTE: If the ambient
temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified
service technician drain the water supply system (on
some models) to prevent serious property damage
due to possible flooding from ruptured water lines or
connections.
If you choose to turn the refrigerator OFF before you
leave, follow these steps.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator and empty ice
bin.
2. Unplug refrigerator.
3. Clean refrigerator, wipe, and dry well.

to prop them open far enough for air to get in. This
stops odor and mold from building up.

WHEN YOU MOVE

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 and pack all
frozen food in dry ice.
2. Unplug refrigerator.
3. Clean refrigerator, wipe, and dry well.
4. Empty water from the defrost pan.
5. Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly.
6. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well and
tape together so they don't shift and rattle during the
move. Refer to sections in Using your Refrigerator for
removal instructions.
7. Depending on the model, raise the front of the
refrigerator so it rolls more easily OR screw in the
leveling legs all the way so they don't scrape the
floor. See the DOOR ALIGNMENT section.
8. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the
refrigerator cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put everything back
and refer to the REFRIGERATION INSTALLATION
section for setup instructions.

NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR

The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker
fills with water. If the power switch is in the ON
position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked
up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power
switch to OFF position.
NOTE: Keeping the power switch in the ON position
before the water line is connected can damage the
icemaker.
You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin
and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills.
