Long story short, there is no useful information in the Owner's Manual. Your best bet is to write down the name and model number of all the major appliances and start looking up and owner's manual for each individually. Yes this is a PIA, but it's the only way you will get the information that you need. Other things you may need to know (like how to winterize), you can ask on here. And keep reading these pages, lots of useful and helpful information once you separate the wheat from the chaff.
