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.
Non-LCD Models: Turn on the Ice Off feature
by pressing and releasing the ICE OFF/LOCK
pad on the control panel (the icon
displays) and shut off the water supply
to the refrigerator.
LCD Models: Turn off the icemaker by
following the screen commands shown
in the LCD Controls section.
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.
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.
Raise the leveling legs located at the bottom
front of the refrigerator.
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.
Lower the leveling legs until they touch
the floor.
When pushing the refrigerator back,
make sure you don’t roll over the power
cord or icemaker supply line (on some
models) and ensure the anti-tip bracket
is engaged (if equipped).
Preparing for Vacation
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.
