This Use & Care Guide provides general
installation and operating instructions
for your model. We recommend using a
service or kitchen contracting professional
to install your refrigerator. Use the
refrigerator only as instructed in this Use &
Care Guide. Before starting the refrigerator,
follow these important first steps.
Location
• Choose a place that is near a
grounded, non-GFCI, 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.

CAUTION
DO NOT install the refrigerator where
the temperature will drop below 55°F
(13°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C).
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.
Installation
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:

NOTE
If your refrigerator is placed with the
door hinge against a wall, you may have
to allow additional space so the door
can be opened wider.

NOTE
The refrigerator doors are designed to
shut by themselves within a 20 degree
opening.
Your refrigerator should be positioned
to allow easy access to a counter when
removing food. For best use of refrigerator
drawers and freezer baskets, the
refrigerator should be in a position where
both can be fully opened.
