How was the fridge moved? Was it upright? If it was transported on its side, the refrigeration oil could flow into the high side lines. The reason why you need to give it 24 hours before turning it on is so the oil can flow back inside the compressor. If you already had it plugged in for 4 hours, it doesn't much matter what you do now.

I hope it still works.
