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).

Under the Refrigerator

For most efficient operation, keep the

area under the refrigerator clean. Remove

the base grille and sweep away or vacuum

up dust.

For best results, use a brush specially

designed for this purpose. It is available at

most appliance parts stores.

Clean the condenser coils at least
once a year.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, remove

food and unplug the refrigerator. Move

the fresh food control to the

(off)

position, and clean the interior with a

baking soda solution of one tablespoon

(15 ml) of baking soda to one quart (1 l)

of water. Leave the doors open.
Move the icemaker feeler arm (on some

models) to the STOP (up) 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.

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.
