Vacation and Moving Tips

Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of 1 to 3 weeks. Use up all perishable items from the refrigerator section. Wrap and store other items in the freezer. If the unit has an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker.

Long vacations: Remove all food and ice if you will be gone 1 month or more. Turn the control to OFF and disconnect the power. If the unit has an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker and turn the water supply valve to the closed position. Defrost and clean the interior thoroughly. Leave both doors open to prevent odor and mold buildup. Block open if necessary.

Moving: When moving the refrigerator, follow these guidelines to prevent damage:

Remove all food and other items from both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Empty the ice storage bin. Defrost and clean the interior thoroughly.

If a hand truck is used in moving, load the refrigerator from the side.

Turn front rollers as far up as possible (some models). This will protect them during sliding or moving.

The cabinet should be well padded and handled with care. DO NOT

DROP.

Automatic Ice Maker

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a continuous supply of

ice for normal use. The automatic ice maker is an optional accessory which may be

 

 

installed in most models at any time. Call your local dealer for installation.

 

After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water supply valve must

 

be opened. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as

 

possible. Lower the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position. Because of new

 

plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be discolored or have an

 

odd flavor. Throw the ice away until the cubes made are free of discoloration and

 

taste.

 

Remember that water quality determines your ice quality. It is

 

best to connect ice maker to water that is not softened. Chemicals from a

 

softener that does not work can damage the ice maker. If ice maker is connected

 

to soft water, ensure softener is maintained and working properly.

 

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up"

 

or OFF position. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container is full.

 

If your model has an adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf so the wire signal arm

 

will hit the ice when the ice container is full.

Ice Maker Tips

1.Ice stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty the container and be sure the wire signal arm is in its "down" or ON position. The ice maker will then produce more ice.

2.Occasionally shake the container to keep ice separated.

3.Keep the wire signal arm in its "up" or OFF position until the refrigerator is connected to the water supply or whenever water supply is turned off.

4.Certain sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating. They are: Motor operation

Ice being loosened from the tray Ice being dropped into the container

Running water

Water valve opening and closing

For more information on these operations, see "Normal Operating Sounds."

5.Wash ice container in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse well and dry.

6.Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer or for short vacations.

7.If the ice maker will be turned off for a long period of time, turn the water supply valve to the closed position.
