Installation
Instructions
Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment. Remove and discard shelf packing clips (if used) located just
above each shelf where they hook onto the frame. To remove plastic clips wiggle the clips sideways and pull straight out.
Location
of
Your
Refrigerator
• Allow for a free flow of air through the front base grille.
• Install the refrigerator
where the room temperature
will
not go below 55* E With temperatures
below 55*, the
refrigerator
will not run frequently enough to maintain
proper temperature
in the freezer.
• Allow a minimum
1/2" clearance on the sides, top and
back for ease of installation.
If the refrigerator is placed
with the door hinge side against a wall, you may want to
allow additional space so the door can be opened wider.
• Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or hard-
wood floors so as not to mark or otherwise damage the
flooring. A piece of plywood, a rug or other material
should be used to protect the floor while positioning the
unit.
Leveling
is Important
To enhance appearance and to maintain
optimal perfor-
mance, the refrigerator must be level. Your refrigerator has
wheels which can be adjusted for leveling:
Remove the lower hinge covers (see fig. 1). To do this,
grasp each cover nearthe hinge and apply pressure. The
attachment
tabs will snap out, allowing removal ofthe
covers.
Adjust the wheels with a screwdriver
(see fig. 2).
•
To lock
the
cabinet
in place,
turn
down
both
leveling/lock feet, located near the front wheels (see fig.
3). Rear leveling/lock feet are not required.
•
Replace the hinge covers.
•
If the floor is not level and it is necessary to raise the
rear of the cabinet, we suggest rolling the rear wheels
onto a piece of plywood or other shim material.
Energy
Saving
Tips
Locate the refrigerator away from heat producing appli-
ances such as the range or dishwasher,
heat vents and
direct sunlight.
Level the refrigerator
and do not block ventilation
around the front grille.
Keep the freezer full to near capacity so less cold air will
escape during door openings. When the freezer is less
than two-thirds full, place milk cartons half full of water
in the freeze_
• Let hot dishes
cool slightly
before puaing into the
refrigerator
