How To Transport The Side By Side Refrigerator
Refrigerator Transporting
To transport the refrigerator properly, perform the following steps:
NOTE: Power Freeze and Power Cool will shut off automatically. Allow 12-24 hours for normal cooling and ice production levels to return.
IMPORTANT:
It is extremely important to allow the unit to stand upright in its final location before plugging in so that compressor lubricant is settled in the reservoir. Depending on how it was positioned during transport, and for how long, the unit should sit for up to 24 hours before it is plugged in.
The refrigerator contains a small quantity of oil that lubricates the internal parts of the compressor. Moving, tilting, or vibrating the refrigerator can cause the oil to move out of the reservoir and into the piping. If the refrigerator is then plugged in, it will run with a partially empty oil reservoir, which could cause damage to the compressor.
