Vacation and Moving Care

Vacations

If You Choose to Leave Refrigerator On While You Are Away:
1. 

Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. 

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker and is 

connected to the household water supply, turn off the water 

supply to the refrigerator. Property damage can occur if the 

water supply is not turned off.

3. 

If you have an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker.

NOTE:

 Depending on your model, raise the wire shutoff arm 

to OFF (up) position or press the switch to OFF (right).

4. 

Empty the ice bin.

If You Choose to Turn 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.

3. 

Unplug refrigerator.

4. 

Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.

5. 

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.

Moving

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. 

Unplug refrigerator.

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 so they don't 

scrape the floor. See “Adjust the Doors” or “Door Removal, 

Leveling and Alignment.”

8. 

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 for preparation instructions. Also, 

if your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, remember to 

reconnect the water supply to the refrigerator.

1. 

With your hand, push the shelf from bottom to top until it is

To replace the shelf:

it clicks the rod into the trim rear. (Keep the front raised 

while pushing).

 

Lower the front of the shelf until the front trim is on the rod 

and push the shelf down so it clicks the rod into the trim 

rear.
