This Use & Care Guide provides general operating
instructions for your model. 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
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.

Installation clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides & Top
¾ inch
Back
1 inch
Door opening
Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy
access to a counter when removing food. For best
use of drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be in a position where both the refrigerator
and freezer doors can be fully opened.
Guidelines
for final
positioning
of your
refrigerator:
All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly
on the floor.
The cabinet should be level at the front and
rear.
The sides should tilt 1A inch (6 mm) from front
to back (to ensure that doors close and seal
properly).
Doors should align with each other and be
level.
All of these
conditions
can be met by
raising
or lowering
the adjustable
front
rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1 Open both doors and remove the toe grille by
gently pulling forward (see illustration).
