Vacation and Moving Tips
Short vacations:
Leave refrigerator operating during vacations of 1 to 3 weeks. Use
all perishable items from refrigerator section. Wrap and store other items in freezer. If
unit has an automatic ice maker, turn off ice maker.
Long vacations:
Remove all food and ice if you will be gone 1 month or more. Turn
controls to OFF. Disconnect power. If unit is equipped with automatic ice maker,
turn off 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 refrigerator and freezer compartments.
Empty ice bucket.
•
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.
If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a continuous supply of
ice for normal use. The automatic ice maker is an optional accessory that may be
installed in most models at any time. Call your local dealer for installation.
After plumbing connections have been completed, water supply valve must be opened.
Place ice container under ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower wire signal
arm to its "down" or ON position.
Because of new plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor. Throw the ice away until cubes made are free of
discoloration and taste.
To stop ice maker,
lift wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up" or OFF
position. Ice maker turns off automatically when ice container is full.
Ice Maker Tips
1. Ice stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty container and be sure wire
signal arm is in its "down" or ON position. Ice maker will then produce more ice.
2. Occasionally shake container to keep ice separated.
3. Keep wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position until refrigerator is connected to water
supply, or whenever water supply is turned off.
4.
Certain sounds are normal when ice maker is operating.
They are:
Motor operation
Ice being loosened from tray
Ice being dropped into container
Running water
Water valve opening and closing
For more information on these operations, see "Normal Operating Sounds."
5. Wash ice container in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.
6. Stop ice maker when cleaning freezer, or for short vacations.
7. If ice maker is to be turned off for a long period of time, turn water supply valve
to the closed position.

Remember, water quality determines
your ice quality. It is best to connect the
ice maker to water that is not softened.
Chemicals from a softener that is not
working properly, can damage the ice
maker. If ice maker is connected to
soft water, ensure the softener is
maintained and working properly.
