Installation
Your refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment.
Remove and discard shelf packaging and tape. Do not

Location
• Do not install refrigerator near oven, radiator or other
heat source. If not possible, shield refrigerator with
cabinet material.
• Do not install where temperature falls below 55 ° F
(13° C) or rises above 110° F (43 ° C). Malfunction may
occur at this temperature.
• Refrigerator is designed for indoor household
application only.
Measuring the Opening
When installing your refrigerator, measure carefully.
Allow '/2" space at top and '/2" space behind the machine
compartment cover (located in the rear) for proper air
circulation.
Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet, tile, wood
floors, rugs) may make your opening smaller than
anticipated.
Some clearance may be gained by using the leveling
procedure under Leveling.
Important: If refrigerator is to be installed into a recess
where the top of the refrigerator is completely covered,
use distance from floor to top of hinge cap to verify
proper clearance.
Leveling
To enhance the appearance and maintain performance,
the refrigerator should be level.
Note
• Complete any required door reversal, panel
installation and/or a water supply connection,
before leveling.

Transporting Your Refrigerator
• NEVER transport refrigerator on its side. If an upright
position is not possible, lay refrigerator on its back.
