NSTALLATION
Your refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment.
Remove and discard shelf packaging and tape. Do not
remove the serial plate.
Location
• Do not install refrigerator near oven, radiator or other
heat source. If not possible, shield refrigerator with
cabinet material.
• Do not install where temperature falls below 55° F
(13° C) or rises above 110° F (43° C). Malfunction may
occur at this temperature.
• Refrigerator is designed for indoor household
application only.
Measuring the Opening
When installing your refrigerator, measure carefully.
Allow
1
⁄
2
” space at top and
1
⁄
2
” space behind the machine
compartment cover (located in the rear) for proper air
circulation.
Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet, tile, wood
floors, rugs) may make your opening smaller than
anticipated.
Some clearance may be gained by using the leveling
procedure under Leveling.
IMPORTANT: If refrigerator is to be installed into a
recess where the top of the refrigerator is completely
covered, use distance from floor to top of hinge cap to
verify proper clearance.
Glass Panel Doors
(select models)
To avoid possible injury, product or property damage,
observe the following:
• When working directly on the doors, protect the
door corners and sides by placing doors on a
nonabrasive surface protected by towels or rugs.
• Protect the glass panel sides when securing the
unit to a dolly. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Over-
tightening the restraints may shatter the glass
which could cause personal injury.
• DO NOT carry or transport removed doors by the
handles.
• Fully tighten handle set screws when installing the
door handles.
CAUTION
Transporting Your Refrigerator
• NEVER transport refrigerator on its side. If an
upright position is not possible, lay refrigerator on its
back. Allow refrigerator to sit upright for
approximately 30 minutes before plugging it in to
assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the
refrigerator in immediately may cause damage to
internal parts.
• Use an appliance dolly when moving refrigerator.
ALWAYS truck refrigerator from its side or
back–NEVER from its front.
• Protect outside finish of refrigerator during transport
by wrapping cabinet in blankets or inserting padding
between the refrigerator and dolly.
• Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with straps or
bungee cords. Thread straps through handles when
possible. Do not overtighten. Overtightening
restraints may dent or damage outside finish.
