Storing The Refrigerator; Care & Cleaning - Amana ATB1504ARW Guía De Uso Y Cuidado

Storing the Refrigerator

Vacations*
If you will be gone for a month or less, leave the controls at
the usual settings.
During longer absences:
1. Remove all food.
2. Shut off the ice maker (if installed) and the valve where
you tapped into the water line to supply the refrigerator.
3. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical outlet.
4. Bleed the water from the ice maker fill line and dry the
ice maker thoroughly.
* If using an automatic ice maker, discard first two or three ice harvests, when refrigerator is put back into service.
Care & Cleaning
Refer to the chart on the following page for specific
refrigerator cleaning guidelines.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe
personal injury or death:
• Disconnect the power cord before moving or
cleaning the refrigerator.
• Disconnect the power cord before replacing the light
bulb.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Wear gloves when changing a light bulb to protect
against possible broken glass.
No Clean™ Condenser
A clean condenser means more efficient refrigerator
operation. Thanks to the unique design of the No Clean™
Condenser, there is no longer a need for routine
condenser cleaning in normal home usage surroundings.
Some operating environments may be particularly dusty or
greasy. In these situations, the condenser can be
periodically cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.
Cleaning Under the Refrigerator
1. Disconnect the power cord.
2. Raise the locking feet, if engaged (see page 3).
5. Clean and dry the refrigerator thoroughly.
6. Leave the doors open to prevent odors.
Water damage due to improper disconnection and
drainage may cause mold/mildew growth.
Moving*
When moving, follow instructions listed in Vacations. In
addition, remove and carefully pack any items that are
easily removable. Ship the refrigerator in an upright
position with the doors taped shut.
3. To prevent an accidental spill, drain any defrost water
which may have accumulated in the defrost drain pan.
This pan is located behind the front base grille. To
remove the pan, push down on both sides and slide it out.
4. If your model has been connected to a water supply for
an automatic ice maker, turn off the water before moving
the refrigerator.
5. Pull the refrigerator out from the wall.
Replacing a Light Bulb
Always use a standard 40 watt appliance bulb.
Fresh Food Compartment
The light bulb is located under the top of the fresh food
compartment.
• Remove light shield, if present.
• Unscrew the light bulb and replace.
Freezer Compartment
The freezer light (select models) is located on the back wall,
near the upper right corner.
To remove the bulb cover:
• Grasp the top and bottom of the bulb cover. Press in the
areas of the attachment tabs, applying enough pressure to
unhook the tabs. At the same time, pivot the cover down
and remove.
• Unscrew the lightbulb and replace.
• Replace the bulb cover by pivoting it back into place and
snapping the tabs into the appropriate slots.
