Behind the Refrigerator
Be careful when moving the refrigerator away from
the wall. All types of floor coverings can be damaged,
particularly cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.
Raise the leveling legs located at the bottom front of the
refrigerator.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it to position
by pushing it straight in. Moving the refrigerator in a side
direction may result in damage to the floor covering or
refrigerator.
Lower the leveling legs until they touch the floor.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you
don’t roll over the power cord or water supply line.

Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small
pieces if it breaks.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the
dishwasher.
Set the icemaker power switch to the OFF position
and be sure to shut off the water supply to the
refrigerator.
