It is important to prepare your refrigerator for use. This section will tell you how to clean it, connect it to
a power source, install it and level it.
Clean it
Clean your refrigerator before using it, if neces-
sary. See cleaning instructions on page 12.

Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz., 15 or 20 ampere fused
and properly grounded electrical supply is
required. It is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with
a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension
cord.

1.
Allow 3 inches (7.5 cm) between overhead
cabinets and refrigerator top.
2. Allow at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) between the
refrigerator condenser on the back and the
wall.
3. Allow I,4 inch (1.25 cm) on each side of the
refrigerator for ease of installation.

against a wall, you might want to leave extra
space so the door can be opened wider.
