Unplug the freezer and clean it thoroughly. Take out all removable parts. Wrap parts well and tape them together so they don�t shift or rattle.

If you have an ice maker, be sure to reconnect the water supply line.

Food containing ice crystals may be safely refrozen, but the quality and flavor of the food may be affected. Use refrozen food quickly. If the condition of the food is poor, or you feel it is unsafe to eat, dispose of it immediately.
