If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections.
When you install the refrigerator next to a fi xed wall, minimum clearance is 3 ¾” (95mm) between the refrigerator
and wall to allow the door to swing open.
• Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing.
This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50ºF (10ºC).
• Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become wet.
CAUTION
When moving your refrigerator
To prevent fl oor damage be sure the front adjusting
legs are in the up position(above the fl oor).
Refer to ‘Adjusting the doors’ in the manual
(on page 15).

FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a leveled
surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of the
fl ooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully
loaded refrigerator. To protect the fi nish of the fl ooring, cut a large
section of the cardboard carton and place under the refrigerator
where you are working. When moving a refrigerator, it is needed to
pull and push in the back-and-forth direction.
