away from the wall. All types of floor
coverings can be damaged, particularly
cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return
it to position by pushing it straight in.

If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is first
installed, there may be air in the water line system.
Press the dispenser button for at least 2 minutes to
remove trapped air from the water line and to fill the
water system. During this process, the dispenser
noise may be loud as the air is purged from the
water line system. To flush out impurities in the
water line, throw away the first 6 glassfuls of water.
NOTE: To avoid water deposits, the dispenser
should be cleaned periodically by wiping with a
clean cloth or sponge.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth
or wet towel. These may leave a residue that
can erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads,
powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing
bleach because these products can scratch and
weaken the paint finish.
and neutralizes odors. Thoroughly rinse
and wipe dry.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves (on some models)
with hot water because the extreme temperature
difference may cause them to break. Handle glass
shelves carefully. Bumping tempered glass can
cause it to shatter.
Do not wash any refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.
Wash ice trays in lukewarm water only—do not put
them in an automatic dishwasher.
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).
Set the icemaker power switch to the O (off)
position 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.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright position
during moving.
