Refrigerator Location
Do not install refrigerator where temperature will
go below 60°F. because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong enough to support it
Also see Energy-Saving Tips.
Adjustable roller behind the base grille enable you to
move the refrigerator away from the wall for cleaning.
These rollers should be set so the refrigerator rests
firmly on the floor. To assure that the doors will close
automatically from a halfway-open position, there is a
built-in tilt from the front to the back of the cabinet.
Side-by-side refrigerators dso have specially designed
door hinges that lift both doors slightly when opened,
allowing the force of gravity to help close them securely.
To adjust rollers,
remove the base grille by
grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.

Water Supply to Icemaker

If your refrigerator has an icemaker, or if you plan to
add an icemaker later, the icemaker will have to be
connected to a cold water line. A water supply kit
containing copper tubing, shut-off valve, fittings and
instructions is available at extra cost from your dealer.
There should be sufficient tubing for the icemaker from
the cold water supply to allow you to move the
refrigerator out from the wall several feet (approximately
8 feet of 1/4" copper tubing in three 10" diameter coils).
Preparing for Vacation
For extended vacations or absences, remove food
and shut off power to the refrigerator. Clean the interior
with baking soda solution of one tablespoon of soda to
one quart of water. Wipe dry. To prevent odors, leave
open box of soda in refrigerator. Leave doors open.

Secure all loose items such as grille, shelves and
storage pans, by taping them securely in place to
prevent damage.
Be sure refrigerator stays in upright position during
actual moving and in van. Refrigerator must be
secured in van to prevent movement. Protect the

leave controls at regular settings. However, if room
temperature is expected to drop below 60°F., follow
same instructions as for extended vacations. Move the
