Preparing for Vacation
For long vacations or absences, remove
food and unplug the refrigerator. Move
the refrigerator control to the

position and 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
0 (off)
position or move the feeler arm to the
STOP
(up) position (depending on model)

have a qualified servicer drain the water
supply system (on some models) to prevent
serious property damage due to flooding.
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as grille,
shelves and drawers by taping them
securely in place to prevent damage.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright
position during moving.
