When moving the refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift the refrigerator from side to side as this may damage the

To avoid damage and help the refrigerator run as efficiently as possible, clean the condenser periodically.

NOTE
Turning the freezer and fresh food controls to “O” turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect electrical power to the
light bulb or other electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface when removing adhesive
labels. Any glue left from tape or labels can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or, touch the glue
residue with the sticky side of tape you have already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.
