Preparing To Install The Refrigerator - GE TCX18 Owner's Manual

Preparing to install the refrigerator.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will go below 60°F (16°C) because
it will not run often enough to maintain proper
temperatures.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease of
installation and proper air circulation.
Sides 0" (0 mm)
Top 1" (25 mm)
/
Back* 1 1
*Metal cover on back may touch wall.
Packaging Tapes
Remove all packaging tapes and peel-off films.
These tapes were added to secure and protect
your refrigerator during transit.
Leveling
Your refrigerator comes with adjustable rollers and
adjustable legs. Either rollers or legs should be set so
the refrigerator is firmly positioned on the floor and
the front is raised just enough that the doors close
easily when opened about halfway.
To adjust the rollers, tilt the base grille out
exposing the adjustment screws. Using an
adjustable wrench, turn the two front roller
adjusting screws counterclockwise to raise the
refrigerator, clockwise to lower it.
