For long vacations or absences, remove
food and unplug the refrigerator. Clean the
interior with a baking soda solution of one
tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to one
quart (1 liter) of water. Leave the doors open.
If the temperature can drop below freezing,
have a qualified servicer drain the water
supply system (on some models) to prevent
serious property damage due to flooding.
Preparing for Long Vacations
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as base grille,
shelves and drawers by taping them
securely in place to prevent damage.
When using a hand truck to move the
refrigerator, do not rest the front or back
of the refrigerator against the hand truck.
This could damage the refrigerator. Handle
only from the sides of the refrigerator.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright
position during moving.
Turning the control to the
Cold
position does not remove power to the light circuit.
CAUTION:
Light bulbs may
be hot.
Unplug the refrigerator.
The bulbs are located at the top of the
refrigerator compartment behind the
controls. To remove the light shield, grasp
the shield at the back and pull out to
release the tabs at the back.
Rotate the shield down and then
forward to release the tabs at the front
of the shield.
After replacing with an appliance bulb
of the same or lower wattage, replace
the shield.
Plug the refrigerator back in.
NOTE:
If a bulb is not available at your local
store, please contact GE Customer Support.
