Can someone tell me the safest way to turn off the Residential fridge for storage?

I know about the need to empty the ice bin, but I don't know if it is better to turn off the inverter at its control panel over the entry door or to use a not-yet-found circuit breaker, which I assume would cut power to the fridge.

I'm worried about doing damage to the inverter is its output has no where to "go".

On ours it's to throw the breaker in the main breaker box. But we have a totally different rig and refer too.

Sorry for the the low tech approach.....I unplug mine when storing.

For storage I would do both, turn off the fridge breaker above the drivers seat and turn the inverter off. Turning the inverter off or having no where for the power to go will not harm it.
