• Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10% or
more. Operating the refrigerator with insufficient power can
damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered under
your warranty.
• Do not plug unit into an outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull
cord to prevent the refrigerator from being turned off accidentally.
Important
To turn off power to your refrigerator, unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet.

Installation

Location
• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. Do Not
use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
• If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct sunlight and away
from the range, dishwasher or other heat sources.
• The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that is level and
strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator.
• Consider water supply availability for models equipped with an
automatic ice maker.
Installation
Caution
Do Not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop
below 13°C (55°F) or rise above 43°C (110°F). The
compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures
inside the refrigerator. Do Not block the toe grille on the lower
front of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation is essential for
the proper operation of your refrigerator.

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation and plumbing
and electrical connections:
Sides & Top
10 mm (3/8 inch)
Back
25 mm (1 inch)

Door Opening

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy access to a
counter when removing food. For best use of drawers and freezer
baskets, the refrigerator should be in a position where both the
refrigerator and freezer doors can be fully opened.
