Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Behind 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 icemaker
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.

Light Bulb Replacement

To replace a burned-out bulb, unplug
the refrigerator from its electrical outlet,
unscrew the bulb when cool and replace
it with an appliance bulb of the same or
lower wattage.

Turning the control to the position does not
remove power to the light circuit.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, remove
food and unplug the refrigerator. Move
the temperature control dial to the 0
position, and clean the interior with a
baking soda solution of one tablespoon
(15 ml) of baking soda to one quart 
(1 liter) of water. Leave the doors open.

Set the icemaker power switch to the 
O (off) position or move the feeler arm to
the STOP (up) position (depending on
model) and shut off the water supply to
the refrigerator.

If the temperature can drop below
freezing, have a qualified servicer drain
the water supply system (on some models)
to prevent serious property damage due
to flooding.

Preparing to Move

Secure all loose items such as grille,
shelves and drawers by taping them
securely in place to prevent damage.

Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright
position during moving.
