Best Answer

It is best to keep a refrigerator vertically upright at all times.

If you need to tip it on its side or back in order to move it, the best thing to do is to put it in place upright, then wait 24 hours before plugging it in.

Can you lay a refrigerator down?

You can certainly lay a refrigerator down. And it will probably operate for a period of time. But the mechanics, particularly the bearings, are designed to work when standing upright. They well wear unevenly and eventually fail pretty quickly of laid on the side or back.

Can you lay a sub zero refrigerator on its back?

It can be done, but I would not. For transportation with no other option, yes. If you do move it this way, do not turn it on for a few hours. The oil inside the compressor will flow into the system and will need to drain back into the compressor. If you have to lay it down, do so for as brief a period as possible. Oil inside the coil, evap and condenser are all bad for the system.
