Preparing To Install The Freezer - GE FCM5SKWH Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions

Preparing to install the freezer.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Your freezer should be conveniently located for day-to-day
use in a dry, well-ventilated room.
Do not install the freezer where the temperature will go
below 0°F or above 110°F, because it will not maintain
proper temperatures.
Be sure to install your freezer on a floor strong enough to
support it when it is fully loaded.
On all models, allow 3" (76 mm) on top, back and sides for
proper air circulation. Allow sufficient space on top for lid to
open.

The freezer must be solidly positioned on the floor if it is
to function at its best. Your freezer has adjustable leveling
legs that can be turned to be solidly positioned wherever
the floor is too uneven. If the place selected for the freezer
is damp or moist, place 2 X 4's (51 mm X 102 mm) under its
entire length to assure adequate support.
