A solid soffit or a wood block is
required to prevent the refrigerator
from tipping forward after it is
installed.
An anti-tip bracket is
located at the top, center rear of
the refrigerator.
Determine what height the
refrigerator will be when it is
installed to fit opening. Determine
the height of the anti-tip bracket at
the final installed height you plan
to use.

The solid soffit must be no
more than 1" above the anti-tip
bracket or you will need to
