Installation .............................................................
Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for ship-
ment. 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
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 mate-.
rial should be used to protect the floor while posi-
tioning the unit.
Leveling
To enhance appearance and to maintain optimal perfor-
mance, the refrigerator must be level. "four refrigerator
has wheels which can be adjusted for leveling:
• Remove the lower hinge covers (see fig. I). To do
this, grasp each cover near the hinge and apply pres-
sure. The attachment tabs will snap out, allowing
removal of the 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 from wheels (see fig 3).
• 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.

• Locate the refrigerator away from heat producing
appliances 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 ful! 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 freezer.
