Moving

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow

these steps to prepare it for the move.

1. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

•

Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

•

Disconnect

the water line from the back of the

refrigerator.

•

When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shut-off

arm to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the

OFF (right) setting.

2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food

in dry ice.

3. Empty the ice bin.

4. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFR See the "Setting the Controls"

section.

5. Unplug the refrigerator.

6. Empty water from the defrost pan.

7. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.

8. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them

together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.

9. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so

it rolls more easily OR screw in the leveling legs so they don't

scrape the floor. See the "Door Closing" or "Leveling Your

Refrigerator"

section.

10. Tape the doors shut and the power cord to the refrigerator

cabinet.

When you get to your new home, put everything back

and refer to the "Installing Your Refrigerator" section for

preparation instructions.

Also, if your refrigerator has an

automatic ice maker, remember to reconnect the water supply to

the refrigerator.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions

suggested

here first in order to avoid the

cost of an unnecessary

service call.

Your refrigerator will not operate

•

Is the power supply cord unplugged?

Firmly plug the cord into a live outlet with proper voltage.

•

Has a household fuse or circuit breaker tripped?

Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.

•

Is the Refrigerator Control turned to the OFF position?

Refer to the "Setting the Control(s)" section.

•

Is the refrigerator defrosting?

Recheck to see if the refrigerator is operating in 30 minutes.

Your refrigerator will regularly run an automatic defrost cycle.

The lights do not work

•

Is the power supply cord unplugged?

Firmly plug the cord into a live outlet with proper voltage.

Is a light bulb loose in the socket?

Turn the refrigerator control to OFF. Disconnect the

refrigerator from the electrical supply. Gently remove the bulb

and reinsert. Then reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical

supply and reset the refrigerator control.

•

Has a light bulb burned out?

Replace with an appliance bulb of the same wattage, size,

and shape. See the "Changing the Light Bulb(s)" section.

There is water in the defrost drain pan

•

Is the refrigerator defrosting?

The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip into the

defrost pan.

•

Is it more humid than normal?

Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to

evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.

The motor seems to run too much

•

Is the room temperature

hotter than normal?

Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions. At

normal room temperatures,

expect your motor to run about

40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions,

expect it

to run even more of the time.

Has a large amount of food just been added to the

refrigerator?

Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator. It is

normal for the motor to run longer in order to cool the

refrigerator back down. See the "Refrigerator

Features"

section.

Are the doors opened often?

Expect the motor to run longer when this occurs. In order to

conserve energy, try to get everything you need out of the

refrigerator at once, keep food organized so it is easy to find,

and close the door as soon as the food is removed.

•

Is the control set correctly for the surrounding

conditions?

Refer to the "Setting the Control(s)" section.

•

Are the doors closed completely?

Push the doors firmly shut. If they will not shut all the way, see

"The doors will not close completely"

later in this section.

Are the condenser coils dirty?

This prevents air transfer and makes the motor work harder.

Clean the condenser coils. Refer to the "Cleaning Your

Refrigerator"

section.

NOTE: Your new refrigerator will run longer than your old one due

to its high efficiency motor.
