Shutting Off the Refrigerator
Handling Power Failure
Foods can be stored well after several hours of power failure, even during the summer. You should call your electric company to ask how long the food will last.
After a power failure, do not put new food into the refrigerator, and open the door as infrequently as possible.
If you are aware that there will be a power failure ahead of time, make cubed ice and put it in the upper part of the fresh food compartment.
If the temperature becomes warmer in the freezer due to a power failure or other malfunction,
the expiration date on frozen food may change and food quality may decrease. Note
Discontinuing Usage
If you do not want to use the refrigerator for a long period of time, pull out the plug. Cut off all power supply and water source. Clean the refrigerator as directed in this manual. Leave the refrigerator door open to prevent any odors from accumulating.
Vacation
If you will be on vacation for a long time, cut off the power source and water supply, and take out all the food. Clean the interior of the refrigerator after any frost melts. Wipe it clean to remove any food residue that could cause odors.
During Transport
Pull out the plug and cut off the power.
Remove all food.
Fix all moveable parts, such as fresh food shelves, the crisper, and freezer shelves with tape.
Close the refrigerator doors and fix with tape to prevent opening during transport.
During transport, the maximum slant angle must not be over 45 degrees (from vertical standing) to prevent damage to oil draining out of the compressor.
During transport, do not hold the handle of the refrigerator. This could cause property damage and is a threat to personal safety.
