FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a level
surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of the
flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully
loaded refrigerator, or approximately 328lbs (150kg). To protect the
finish of the flooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton and
place under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving
the refrigerator, be sure to pull it straight out and push back in
straight.
• 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 the wet condition.
CAUTION
When moving your refrigerator
To prevent floor damage be sure the front adjusting
legs are in the up position(above the floor).
