IMPORTANT:
The solid soffit must be within 1" (2.5 cm) maximum above
the refrigerator. If the solid soffit is higher than 1" (2.5 cm) or
one is not available, prevent the refrigerator from tipping
during use.
It is recommended that board(s) be installed before the
refrigerator is installed.
Board(s) must be long enough to fully cover the width of the
compressor cover.
Locate the board(s) so the bottom surface(s) of the board(s)
is(are) 84" (213 cm) from the floor.
During installation, raise the refrigerator up so there is ¹⁄₄"
(6.35 mm) maximum between the top of the refrigerator and
the bottom of the anti-tip board(s). Do not crush the
condenser cover when raising the rear leveling legs.
