CARE AND CLEANING Keep your refrigerator clean to prevent odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean at least twice a year. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher. Always unplug the electrical power. CAUTION • When moving the refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift the refrigerator from side to side as this may tear or gouge the floor covering. • Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch interior metal surfaces with wet or damp hands. Vacation and Moving Tips Short Vacations: • Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than 3 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. • Leave the refrigerator door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary, to prevent odor and mold growth. Moving: When moving the refrigerator, follow these guidelines to prevent damage: • Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet. • Remove foods, then defrost, and clean the refrigerator. • Secure all loose items such as base panel, baskets, and shelves by taping them securely in place to prevent damage. • In the moving vehicle, secure refrigerator in an upright position to prevent movement. Also protect outside of refrigerator with a blanket, or similar item.  NOTE • Turning the refrigerator temperature control to "OFF" (See Pro SelectTM Electronic Control) turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect electrical power to the lights or other electrical components. Unplug the unit or switch the breaker that supplies power to the unit to the off position. • Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or labels can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or, touch the glue residue with the sticky side of tape you have already removed. Do not remove the serial plate. 15
