When installing your refrigerator, measure carefully. Allow 1/2" (1.3 cm) space at top and 1/2" (1.3 cm) behind the
machine compartment cover (located in the rear) for proper air circulation. Sub-flooring 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".
