Care and Cleaning
(continued)
Long vacations:
• Remove all food and ice if you will be gone 1 month or more.
• Turn controls to OFF and disconnect power.
• Turn off automatic ice maker and turn water supply valve to the closed
position.
• Clean interior thoroughly. Leave both doors open to prevent odor and mold
build-up. Block open if necessary.
Moving:
When moving refrigerator, follow these guidelines to prevent damage:
• Remove all food and other items from both the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.
• Empty ice storage bin.
• If a hand truck is used in moving, load refrigerator from the side.
• Turn rollers as far up as possible. This will protect them during sliding or moving.
• Cabinet should be well padded and handled with care.
DO NOT DROP.
IMPORTANT:
If the refrigerator is going to be stored or moved in freezing temperatures, the
water in the ice and water system must be drained completely. Failure to do so
could result in water leaks when the refrigerator is put back in service.Contact a
service representative to perform this operation.
Removing the Handles
and Doors
If it is necessary to move the refrigerator through narrow doorways, follow
these steps to remove the handles and/or refrigerator and freezer doors.
To Remove Handles
Full-length Trim:
1. Using a putty knife, carefully slide the corner of the blade under the trim. Slide
blade down until you find the trim lock. Carefully maneuver the blade against the
trim lock
from the side
as shown.
NOTE:
Pressing down on the trim lock from above will not release it.
2. Carefully push the putty knife firmly against the trim lock and twist gently. The
trim lock will snap free from the door. (Each trim piece will have two trim locks.)
3. Grasp trim and pull up away from handle using a slight side-to-side motion.
4. Remove screws attaching handle to door.
5. Repeat these steps for each handle end. Keep screws and trim pieces.
6. To replace handles, line up handle with screw holes, insert screws and tighten.
Slide upper and lower trim pieces back on handle ends, and snap trim locks back
into holes on door front.
To Remove Doors
Before removing the doors, be sure the freezer control is turned to OFF. Remove all
food from the doors and unplug the refrigerator. Remove the toe grille.
Trace around the hinges with a soft lead pencil. This will make it easier to realign
the doors when they are replaced. Completely remove one door before starting
removal of the other.
