Vacation and moving care

Short vacations

No need to shut off the refrigerator if you will be away for less than four weeks.

1.Use up any perishables.

2.Freeze other items.

3.Raise signal arm to OFF (up) position.

4.Shut off water supply to the ice maker.

5.Empty the ice bin.

Long vacations

If you will be gone a month or more:

1.Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2.Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day ahead of time.

3.When the last load of ice drops, turn off the ice maker. Make sure all ice is dispensed out of the ice maker mechanism.

4.Unplug the refrigerator.

5.Clean it, wipe, and dry well.

6.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.

Moving

When you are moving the refrigerator to a new home:

1.Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day ahead of time.

2.Disconnect the water line.

3.After the last load of ice drops, lift the signal arm to the OFF (up) position.

4.Remove all food from the refrigerator.

5.Pack all frozen food in dry ice.

6.Unplug the refrigerator.

7.Clean it thoroughly. Wipe and dry well.

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

9.Screw in the leveling rollers.

10.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. Also, if your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, remember to reconnect the water supply line.

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 page 6.

Power interruptions

If electricity goes off, call the power company. 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 2 Ibs (907 g) of dry ice in freezer for every cubic foot (liter) 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.
