To change the freezer light:

POWER INTERRUPTIONS
If the electricity in your house goes off, call the power
company and ask how long it will be off.
1. If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep
both refrigerator doors closed to help foods stay
cold and frozen.
2. If the power will be out for more than 24 hours:
a) Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen
food locker.
OR
b) Place 2 lbs (ca. 1kg) of dry ice in the freezer for
every cubic foot (28 L) of freezer space. This will
keep the food frozen for two to four days. While
handling dry ice, wear gloves to protect your hands
from ice burns.
OR
c) If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available,
consume or dispose of food at once.
REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays
cold longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of
meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked
goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may
be safely refrozen, although the quality and flavor may
be affected. If the condition of the food is poor, or if you
feel it is unsafe, dispose of it.
WHEN YOU GO ON VACATION
If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while you
are away, follow these steps to prepare your refrigerator
before you leave.
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. Empty the ice bin.
If you choose to turn the refrigerator off before you
leave, follow these steps.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Depending on your model, set the thermostat control
(refrigerator control) to OFF. See the “Setting the
Controls” section.
3. Clean refrigerator, wipe it and dry well.
4. 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 MOVE
When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home,
follow these steps to prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all
frozen food in dry ice.
2. Depending on your model, turn the thermostat control
(refrigerator control) to OFF. See the
“Setting the
Controls” section.
3. Unplug the refrigerator.
4. Empty water from the defrost pan.
5. Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly.
6. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well and tape
them together so they don’t shift and rattle during the
move.
7. Depending on the model, raise the front of the
refrigerator so it rolls more easily OR screw in the
leveling legs all the way so they don’t scrape the floor.
See the
“Door Closing” section.
8. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the
refrigerator cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put everything back
and refer to the “Installing Your Refrigerator” section for
preparation instructions.
