This refrigerator was designed to fit a 69"
tall opening to allow for proper ventilation,
leveling and door adjustments.
Please also take into account, when
measuring space for your unit, that some
models require a certain amount of clear-
ance around it to allow for proper air flow.
Proper air flow is key to keeping your unit
running at optimum efficiency. To deter-
mine measurements, please reference
the table below.
Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet,
tile, wood floors, rugs) may make your
opening smaller than anticipated.
Some clearance may be gained by using
the leveling procedure under Leveling
Your Refrigerator.

Follow these tips when moving the refrig-
erator to final location:
NEVER transport refrigerator on its
side. If an upright position is not possi-
ble, lay refrigerator on its back. Allow
refrigerator to sit upright for approxi-
mately 30 minutes prior to plugging
refrigerator in to assure oil returns to
the compressor. Plugging refrigerator
in immediately may cause damage to
internal parts.
Use an appliance dolly when moving
refrigerator. ALWAYS truck refrigera-
tor from its side or back-NEVER from
its front.
Protect outside finish of refrigerator
during transport by wrapping cabinet
in blankets or inserting padding
between the refrigerator and dolly.
Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with
straps or bungee cords. Thread straps
through handles when possible. DO
NOT overtighten. Overtightening
restraints may dent or damage outside
finish.
Observe these points when choosing the
final location for your refrigerator:
DO NOT install refrigerator near oven,
radiator or other heat source. If not
possible, shield refrigerator with
cabinet material.
DO NOT install where temperature
falls below 55 ° F (13° C). Malfunction
may occur at this temperature.
To assure proper door closure, follow
the leveling instructions in the section,
Leveling Your Refrigerator.
IMPORTANT: If refrigerator is to be
installed into a recess where top of
refrigerator is completely covered, use
dimensions from floor to top of hinge cap
to verify proper clearance.
