Holiday and moving care
Long holidays
Remove all the food if you are going for a month
or more.
Unplug the refrigerator. Clean, rinse it well and
dry. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of
both doors to prop them open far enough for air
to get in. This will keep odor and mold from
building up.
^WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
Do not allow children to climb on, play near
or climb inside the refrigerator when the
doors are blocked open. They may become
injured or trapped.
Short holidays
No need to shut off the refrigerator if you will be
away for less than four weeks. Use up perish­
ables; freeze other items.
Moving
Remove all food. Pack frozen food in dry ice.
Unplug the refrigerator and clean it thoroughly.
Take out all removable parts. Wrap all parts
well and tape them together so they don’t shift
and rattle. Screw in the leveling legs; tape the
doors shut; and tape the electric cord to the
cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put every­
thing back and refer to page 5.
To restart refrigerator, see “Using Your Refrigera­
tor” on page 7.
