Unpacking Your Refrigerator

WARNING
Use two or more people to move and
y
install the refrigerator. Failure to do so
can result in back or other injury.
Your refrigerator is heavy. When
y
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.
Wind the leveling feet up first so that
the unit is on its rollers.
Keep flammable materials and vapors,
y
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

The refrigerator should always
y
be plugged into its own individual
properly grounded electrical outlet
rated for 220 Volts, 50 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.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not install the refrigerator in a wet
or damp area. do not install in any
outdoor or sheltered outdoor location
or direct sunlight.

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
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. Poorly
constructed timber flooring can cause a
limit in door adjustment and the cabinet to
become out of shape. (See Leveling and
door AlIgnment.)
NOTE
Installing on carpeting, soft tile
surfaces, a platform or weakly
supported structure is not
recommended.
