Clearances; Location; Rollers - GE 18 Use And Care & Installation Manual

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.
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air
circulation and plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides ..........................................................................3/4 (19 mm)
Top.............................................................................1 (25 mm)
Back...........................................................................1 (25 mm)
The rollers have three purposes:
1. Rollers can be adjusted so the door closes easily when opened about
halfway. (Raise the front about 3/4 (19 mm) from the floor.)
2. Rollers should be adjusted so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on
the floor and does not wobble.
3. Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from the wall for
cleaning.
REFRIGERATOR LOCATION

CLEARANCES

ROLLERS

(on some models)
Do install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.
To keep energy costs down, avoid locating the refrigerator next to the
range or a heating vent.
If Model 19, 22, or 25 is to be installed against a wall on the hinge side,
allow 1 1 ⁄ (44 mm) for door clearance.

grasping the bottom of the

adjusting screws clockwise
to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it.
3. To replace the base grille,
line up the clips on the back
of the grille with the openings
in the base plate and push
the grille forward until it
snaps into place.
