If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic ice maker, shut off the ice maker water supply a day ahead of time. Disconnect the water line. Afterthe last supply of ice drops, lift the signal arm to turn off the ice maker

Remove all food. Pack frozen foods in dry ice. Un- plug the refrigerator and clean it thoroughly.

If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these four steps:

l. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

If your refrigerator will not operate:

. Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)

l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

l Is the Refrigerator Control turned ON?

If there Is a rattllng or jlngllng noise, or other un- famlllar sounds:

l Is something on top or behind the refrigerator mak- ing noise when the refrigerator is running?

l New features on your new refrigerator make new sounds. You may be hearing air flowing from the fans, timer clicks for the defrosting cycle, defrost water draining into the defrost pan.

If there Is water in the defrost pan:

l In hot, muggy weather, this is normal. The pan can even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan doesn’t overflow.

If the light does not work:

l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See page 4.)

If a bulb Is burned out:

l See instructions for changing light bulbs on page 6. Use appliance bulbs only

If the motor seems to run too much:

l IS the condenser, behind the refrigerator, free of dust and lint?

lOn hot days, or if the room is warm, the motor natu- rally runs longer

l If the door has been opened a lot, or if a large amount of food has been put in, the motor will run longer to cool down the interior

Remember: Motor running time depends on dif- ferent things: number of door openings, amount of food stored. temperature of the room, setting of the controls.

And, your new refrigerator may be larger than your old one so it has more space to be cooled. It also has a regular freezer instead of a frozen food compart- ment All this means better refrigeration and may re- quire more running time than your old one.

Remove everything that comes out, Wrap all parts well and tape them together so they don’t shift and rattle.

Screw in the levelling rollers; tape the doors shut; tape the electric cord to the cabinet. When you get to your new home, put everything back, level it, I
