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.
