keep all refrigerator doors closed to help

When you go on vacation
If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while
you are away, follow these steps to prepare
your refrigerator before you leave.
1 Use up any perishables and freeze other
items.
2 Turn off the icemaker and empty the ice bin.
If you choose to turn the refrigerator off before
you leave, follow these steps.
1 Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2 Clean the refrigerator, wipe it and dry well.
3 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.
When you move
When you are moving your refrigerator to a
new home, follow these steps to prepare it for
the move.
1 Remove all food from the refrigerator and
pack all frozen food in dry ice.
2 Unplug the refrigerator.
3 Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly.
4 Take out all removable parts, wrap them
well and tape them together so they do
not shift and rattle during the move. Refer
to the Using your Refrigerator section for
removable instructions.
5 Depending on the model, raise the front of
the refrigerator so it rolls easier OR screw
in the leveling legs all the way so they do
not scrape the floor. See the Door Closing
section.
6 Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord
to the refrigerator cabinet.
When you get to your new home, put
everything back and refer to the Refrigerator
Installation section for preparation instructions.
