Changing the Light Bulbs

NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to

replace the bulb with one of the same size and shape. The lights

require a 40-watt to 60-watt maximum appliance bulb.

Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

1. Remove the top grille. See “Power On/Off Switch.”

2. Press power switch to the OFF position.

3. Remove light shield when applicable.

NOTE: To clean a light shield, wash it with warm water and a

liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.

4. Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size,

shape and wattage.

5. Replace light shield when applicable.

6. Press the power switch to the ON position.

7. Replace the top grille. See “Power On/Off Switch.”

Refrigerator Control Panel Lights

Style 1

Reach behind the refrigerator control panel to remove and

replace the light bulb.

Style 2

Use a ¹⁄₄" hex-head screw driver to remove and replace the light

shield.

Freezer Light

Reach behind the panel at the top of the freezer compartment

above the ice storage bin to remove and replace the light bulb.

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

4days.

■ 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

Your refrigerator is equipped with the Holiday feature, which is

designed for the traveler who wishes to turn off the lights and ice

maker. By selecting this feature, the temperature set points

remain unchanged, the ice maker will be disabled and the interior

lights will turn off. For most efficient refrigerator operation, it is

recommended to exit the Holiday feature when it is no longer

required.

If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While You’re

Away:

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. Press the HOLIDAY pad.

3. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, shut off water

supply to the ice maker.

4. Empty the ice bin.

5. When you return from vacation, press HOLIDAY to return to

normal operation.

If You Choose to Turn the Refrigerator Off Before You

Leave:

1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

■ Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

■ When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position.

3. Depending on your model, turn the Thermostat Control

(or Refrigerator Control) to OFF. See “Using Controls.”

4. Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.

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 wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the OFF

(right) setting.

2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food

in dry ice.

3. Empty the ice bin.

4. Depending on the model, turn the Thermostat Control or

Refrigerator Control to OFF. See the “Using the Controls”

section.

5. Unplug refrigerator.

6. Empty water from the defrost pan.

7. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.
