Vacations
Use up any perishable goods and freeze other items if you choose to leave the refrigerator on
while you are away.
If the refrigerator will be turned off prior to your departure, follow these steps.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Unplug the refrigerator.
3. Clean the refrigerator. See “Cleaning Your Refrigerator” on page 6.
4. Prop the door open so that sufficient air can enter the refrigerator. Do so by taping a
rubber or wood block to the top of the door. Allowing air to flow into the refrigerator
prevents the buildup of odor and mold.
Moving Care
Follow the instructions below to prepare your refrigerator when moving to a new location, such
as a new home.
1. Remove all products from the refrigerator.
2. Unplug the refrigerator.
3. Clean, wipe, and dry the unit completely.
4. Take out all removable parts, wrap them, and tape them together securely so they don’t
shift and rattle during the move.
5. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the rear of the refrigerator.
WARNING:
Two or more people are required to move and/or install the refrigerator. Failure to do so
may cause back or other injury.
Reversing the Door Hinge (optional)
Required Tools: Phillips screwdriver
1. Disconnect power from the unit.
2. Remove each of the screws on the top of the unit. There should be a total of seven (3 on
the hinge side, 4 on the unhinged side). Be careful not to lose or discard the screws.
3. Remove the TOP HINGE and WASHER (see picture on next page) and set aside.
4. Lift the door straight up and off of the BOTTOM HINGE.
5. Remove the screws fastening the BOTTOM HINGE and COVER to the bottom of the
refrigerator cabinet. There are five screws total (4 for the hinge, 1 for the cover).
Important information about moving your refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the unit for cleaning or maintenance,
cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to prevent damaging your floor.
You should always pull the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not
wiggle or “walk” the refrigerator when trying to move it, as this can cause floor
damage.
