the temperature control knob in the refrigerator
section to the OFF position and clean the
refrigerator, including the gaskets, according to
the Proper Care and Maintenance section. Leave
the doors propped open to allow air to circulate
inside the refrigerator.

food from it and use adhesive tape to secure all
loose items such as shelves, door bins and racks,
crispers and pans, etc. and unplug it. Always move
the refrigerator in an upright position in order to
avoid damaging the sealed refrigerant system.
