Long holidays

If you will be gone a month or more:

1.Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2.Unplug the refrigerator.

3.Clean it, rinse well and dry.

4.Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up.

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.

To restart refrigerator, see “Using Your Refrigerator” on page 7.

1.Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2.Pack all frozen food in dry ice.

3.Unplug the refrigerator.

4.Clean it thoroughly. Rinse well and dry.

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

6.Screw in the leveling rollers.

7.Tape the doors shut and tape the power supply cord to the cabinet.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to page 5.

Power interruptions

If electricity goes off, call the power com- pany. Ask how long power will be off.

1.If service will be interrupted 24 hours or less, keep both doors closed. This helps foods stay frozen.

2.If service will be interrupted longer than

24 hours:

(a)Remove all frozen food and store in a frozen food locker.

OR

(b)Place 32 grams of dry ice in freezer for every liter (2 Ibs. for every cubic foot) of freezer space. This will keep food frozen for 2 to 4 days. Wear gloves to protect your hands from dry ice burns.

OR

(c)If neither a food locker or dry ice is available, use or can perishable food at once.

3.A full freezer stays cold longer than a partly filled one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If food contains ice crystals, it may be safely refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the condition of the food is poor, or if you feel it is unsafe, dispose of it.
