● Vacation Time
● Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
● Long vacations: If the refrigerator will not be used for several months, remove all food and
unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold
growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
● Moving Your Refrigerator
● Remove all the food.
● Securely tape down all loose items inside your refrigerator.
● Turn the leveling screw up to the base to avoid damage.
● Tape the door shut.
● Be sure the refrigerator stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect
the outside of refrigerator with a blanket, or similar item.
● Refrigerant
The refrigerant gas contained in the circuit of this appliance is isobutane (R 600a), which is a low-
polluting but flammable gas.
● When transporting and installing the appliance, take care not to damage any part of the
refrigerant circuit
● Do not use sharp or pointed tools to defrost the appliance.
●
Do not use any electrical appliances inside the appliance.
If the refrigeration system is damaged:
● Do not use any flame near the appliance.
● Avoid sparks - do not light any electrical appliances or lamps.
● Ventilate the room immediately.
● Energy Saving Tips
● The refrigerator should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
● Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator. Overloading the
refrigerator forces the compressor to run longer.
● Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the refrigerator.
● Refrigerator storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient.
● Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many
items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
