INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Unpack the Refrigerator
Remove the Packaging
■ Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on
the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the
adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
■ Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids,
or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can
damage the surface of your refrigerator. For more information,
see “Refrigerator Safety.”
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the white foam air return insert from
behind the control panel on the ceiling of the refrigerator. If the insert
is removed, ice may migrate down from the freezer and cause icicles
to form.
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the package materials, clean the inside of
your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in
“Refrigerator Care.”
Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous –
even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your
old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help prevent
accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
■ Take off the doors.
■ Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.

WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
When Moving Your refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for
cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull
the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle
or “walk” the refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor
damage could occur.
NOTE: If casters are installed, unlock the casters before
trying to move your refrigerator.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter
into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass
shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid impact from dropping.
