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.
Set the icemaker power switch to the
O (off)
position and shut off the water supply to
the refrigerator.
If the temperature can drop below freezing,
have a qualified servicer drain the water
supply system to prevent serious property
damage due to flooding.

Behind the Refrigerator
Be careful when moving the refrigerator
away from the wall. All types of floor
coverings can be damaged, particularly
cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it
to position by pushing it straight in. Moving
the refrigerator in a side direction may result
in damage to the floor covering or
refrigerator.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make
sure you don’t roll over the power cord or
icemaker supply line.
Preparing for Vacation
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as 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.
