4. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home
operating environments. If the environment is particularly
greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home,
the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months to ensure
maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
Remove the base grille.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,
the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area
of the condenser.
Replace the base grille when finished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulbs

IMPORTANT:
Not all appliance bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to
replace the bulb with an appliance bulb of the same size,
shape and wattage.
To ensure optimum refrigerator performance, replace light
bulbs as soon as they burn out.
Refrigerator Compartment Light
The lighting located at the top of the refrigerator compartment
never needs to be replaced. If the lights do not illuminate when
the door is opened, call for assistance or service. In the U.S.A. call
1-844-553-6667, and in Canada call 1-800-469-4663.
Freezer Compartment Light (on some models)
1. Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove the light shield (on some models).
Top of the freezer compartment - Slide the light shield
toward the back of the compartment to release it from the
light assembly.
3. Replace the burned-out bulb with an appliance bulb(s) no
greater than 25 watts.
4. Replace the light shield.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Power Interruptions

If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door or doors
closed (depending on your model) to help food stay cold and
frozen.
If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the
following:
Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
Place 2 lbs (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic foot
(28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for 2 to
4 days.
If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or can
perishable food at once.
REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled
one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of
baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be
refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the
condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.

Vacation and Moving Care

Vacations
If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While You're Away:
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, and is
connected to the household water supply, turn off the water
supply to the refrigerator. Property damage can occur if the
water supply is not turned off.
3. If you have an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker.
NOTE: Depending on your model, raise the wire shutoff arm to
OFF (arm up) position, or press the switch to OFF.

If You Choose to Turn Off the Refrigerator Before You Leave:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
