Vacations Moving

If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While You're

Away:

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

• Raise wire shutoff arm to OFF (up) position or move the

switch to the OFF (right) setting.

• Shut off water supply to the ice maker.

3. Empty the ice bin.

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 or move the switch to the OFF

(right) setting.

Depending on the model, turn the Temperature Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFR See "Using the Controls."

Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.

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.

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 Temperature Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFR See "Using the Controls."

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 "Adjust the Doors."

10. Tape the doors closed and tape the power cord to the back

of the refrigerator.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to

the "Installation Instructions" section for preparation instructions.

Also, if your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, remember to

reconnect the water supply to the refrigerator.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first inorder to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

The refrigerator will not operate

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to fellow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

Power cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

• Is outlet working? Plug in a lamp to see if the outlet is

working.

• Household fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped? Replace

the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues,

call an electrician.

• Are controls on? Make sure the refrigerator controls are on.

See "Using the Controls."

• New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for

the refrigerator to cool completely.

NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to coldest setting

will not cool either compartment more quickly.

The motor seems to run too much

Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its

high-efficiency compressor and fans. The unit may run even

longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, doors are

opened often, or if the doors have been left open.
