Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as grille, shelves and
drawers by taping them securely in place to prevent
damage.
To prevent the doors from opening while moving, secure
them to the case with tape. Be sure the refrigerator stays
in an upright position during moving.
Light Bulb Replacement
WARNING
Before replacing a burned-out light
bulb, the refrigerator should be unplugged in order to
avoid contact with a live wire filament. (A burned-out
light bulb may break when being replaced.) Turning the
control to the OFF position does not remove power to
the light circuit.

Moving the Refrigerator
Be careful when moving the refrigerator away from
the wall. All types of floor coverings can be damaged,
particularly cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.
Turn the leveling legs at each front corner of the
refrigerator counterclockwise until the rollers support
the refrigerator. Pull the refrigerator straight out and
return it to position by pushing it straight in. Moving the
refrigerator in a side direction may result in damage to
the floor covering or refrigerator.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you don’t
roll over the power cord or ice maker supply line (on
some models).
After rolling the refrigerator back into place, turn the legs
clockwise until the legs again bear the weight of the
refrigerator.
