5. 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.
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 ice maker
arm to the OFF (up) position.
2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all
frozen food in dry ice.
3. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control
(or Refrigerator Control, depending on the model) to
OFF. See the "Setting the Controls" section.
4. Unplug the refrigerator.
5. Empty water from the defrost pan.
6. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.
7. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape
them together so they don't shift and rattle during the
move.
8. 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" section.
9. 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.
