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.
Set the icemaker power switch to
the
OFF
position and shut off the water
supply to the refrigerator.
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.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
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.
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.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure
you don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker
supply line (on some models).
Preparing for Vacation
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as 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.
