Method
Pick the Right Place.
Save steps by putting
your refrigerator
near the sink and next to a
countertop.
It should
not be near a stove, radiator,
water
heater
or
any source
of heat...including
direct
sunlight.
You can install it flush against
cabinets
on each
side. You should
leave
3 Inches
(7.5 cm] of free space
above
the top, and at least 1
inch (2.5 cm) between
the condenser
and the wall. These spaces
let
the condenser
"breathe
."
Do you want it in a corner?
Leave
some room on the wall side if
you want the doors to open wider.
Planning
to add the automatic
ice maker?
Will the refrigerator
be
near a cold water pipe?
Some people
run the water line through
the
floor to the basement.
Others run it behind
the cabinets
to the pipes
under the sink.
Make
Sure It's level.
Keep the four bolts that held your refrigerator
in the shipping
crate.
They are also levelling
legs. Screw them
all the way
into the bolt
holes on the bottom
corners
of the refrigerator.
Your refrigerator
also has rollers to help make
it easy to move.
Turn all four legs to the left to raise the rollers off the floor. (If some-
one tilts the top of the refrigerator,
it will be easier to adjust the legs.)
Now adjust each corner
until the refrigerator
won't rock.
Turn either the front or the back
legs the same number
of turns until
the refrigerator
is level. If you don't have a level, the refrigerator
will
be about
level when a partly
open door will stay where
you put it.
Remove
the labels
and Clean.
Remove
the Consumer
Buy Guide
label
and
other inside
labels
before
using the refrigerator.
Any glue
left can
be taken
off with
rubbing
alcohol.
Do not remove
the label
giving
operating
instructions
for the
Refrigerator
and Freezer
Controls
or the Tech Sheet fastened
under
the refrigerator
at the front.
To clean
your refrigerator
before
using it, check
the washing
in-
structions
in this booklet.
Plug It In.
A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15 ampere
fused electrical
supply
is
required.
It is recommended
that a separate
circuit
serving
only this
appliance
be provided.
Do not use an extension
cord. Use a receptacle
which
cannot
be
turned
off with a switch
or pull chain.
