6.6 Vacation and moving care

6.6.1 Vacations

If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while you’re away, use up any perishable and freezer other items.

Alternatively, you can choose to turn the refrigerator off before you leave, and follow these steps:

1Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2Turn the control knob to 0 (STOP).

3Clean the refrigerator, wipe it and dry it well.

4Tape rubber or wood blocks to the top of the door to prop it open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up.

6.6.2 Moving

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move:

1Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food in dry ice.

2Empty the ice bin,

3Turn the control knob to 0 (STOP),

4Unplug the refrigerator,

5Empty water from the defrost pan,

6Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly.

7Take out all removable parts, wrap them well and tape them together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move.
