Care and Cleaning

Moving

When moving, follow steps a–d under Vacations. In addition, remove and carefully pack any items that are easily removable. Ship the refrigerator in an upright position with the doors taped shut.

Refer to the chart on the following page for specific refrigerator cleaning guidelines.

Disconnect the power cord before cleaning.

Cleaning Under the Refrigerator

Your refrigerator can be rolled out for cleaning the floor underneath. Raise the locking feet if engaged (see page 2). Pull the refrigerator straight out from the wall.

No CleanCommercial-duty Condenser

A clean condenser means more efficient refrigerator operation. Thanks to the unique design of the No Cleancondenser, there is no longer a need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home usage surround- ings.

Some operating environments may be particularly dusty or greasy. In these situations, the condenser can be periodically cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.

Replacing a Light Bulb

VacationsCAUTION: Disconnect the power cord before replacing light bulb(s). Wear gloves as protection against possible broken glass.

Always use a standard 40 or 60 watt appliance bulb.

Refrigerator

To replace a light bulb at the upper rear, unscrew the bulb located in the center opening on the bottom of the control cover. The replacement bulb can then be screwed in. If more access is required for bulb replace- ment, grasp the control cover in the two lower rear “finger tabs”, pull down slightly to clear retainer tabs and slide the cover forward until it is free. After replac- ing the bulb, align the control cover on to the ribs and slide it straight back until it snaps onto the retainer tabs.

Dispenser Light (Dispenser Models Only)

For replacement, use a 120V, 7 watt bulb. Disconnect the power cord before replacing the light bulb.
