Unpacking Your Refrigerator
_ WARNING
Use two or more people to move and
install the refrigerator. Failure to do so
can result in back or other injury.
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving
the refrigerator for cleaning or service,
be sure to protect the floor. Always pull
the refrigerator straight out when moving
it. Do not wiggle or walk the refrigerator
when trying to move it, as floor damage
could occur.
Keep flammable materials and vapors,
such as gasoline, away from the
refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in
fire, explosion, or death.
Remove tape and any temporary labels from your
refrigerator before using. Do not remove any
warning-type labels, the model and serial number
label, or the Tech Sheet that is located under the
front of the refrigerator.
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the
area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue
can also be easily removed by rubbing a small
amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with
your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These products can damage the
surface of your refrigerator.
Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping
position. Please reinstall shelves according to
your individual storage needs.
Choosing the Proper Location
Select a place where a water supply can
be easily connected for the automatic
icemaker.
-_) NOTE
The water pressure must be 20 - 120 psi
or 138 - 827 kPa or 1.4 - 8.4 kgf/cm _. If
the refrigerator is installed in an area with
low water pressure (below 20 psi), you ca_
install a booster pump to compensate for
the low pressure.
The refrigerator should always be plugged
into its own individual properly grounded
electrical outlet rated for 115 Volts, 60 Hz,
AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes.
This provides the best performance
and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire
hazard from overheated wires. It is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
-T_ WARNING
o reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
nstall the refrigerator in a wet or damp
area.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be
leveled and installed on a solidly constructed
floor. If required, adjust the leveling legs to
compensate for the unevenness of the floor.
The front should be slightly higher than the
rear to aid in door closing. Leveling legs can
be turned easily by tipping the cabinet slightly.
Turn the leveling legs to the left to raise the
unit or to the right to lower it. (See Leveling
and Door Alignment.)
