This Use & Care Guide provides general
installation and operating instructions for
your model. We recommend using a service
or kitchen contracting professional to install
your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only
as instructed in this Use & Care Guide.
Before starting the refrigerator, follow these
important first steps.
Location
* Choose a place that is near a grounded,
non-GFCI, electrical outlet. Do Not use an
extension cord or an adapter plug.
" If possible, place the refrigerator out of
direct sunlight and away from the range,
dishwasher, or other heat sources.
" The refrigerator must be installed on a
floor that is level and strong enough to
support a fully loaded refrigerator.
" Consider water supply availability for
models equipped with an automatic
ice maker.
CAUTION
Do not install the refrigerator where
the temperature will drop below 55°F
(13°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C).
The compressor will not be able to
maintain proper temperatures inside
the refrigerator.
Do not block the toe grille on the lower
front of your refrigerator. Sumcient air
circulation is essential for the proper
operation of your refrigerator.
Installation
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides & Top 3/8 inch (9.5 mm)
Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)
NOTE
If your refrigerator is placed with the door
hinge side against a wall, you may have
to allow additional space so the door can
be opened wider.
