Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance. Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.

Tape the door shut.

Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Do not place the unit next to a heat source (heating vent, range, fireplace, direct sunlight, etc).

Keep the door closed as much as possible, especially in hot, humid weather.

Cover foods to reduce moisture build-up inside the appliance.
