dolly and refrigerator into the house. Move refrigerator close

Reduce Tipping Radius
(if required)
If you do not have adequate ceiling height to stand refrigerator
upright, the tipping radius can be reduced by removing the top
grille and side trims (see the following chart).
NOTE: To avoid hitting the compressor housing on the ceiling,
the refrigerator must be raised up by first placing the left bottom
edge of the refrigerator on floor, standing the refrigerator upright,
and then lowering the right side of the refrigerator down to the
floor.
