Reduce Tipping Radius

Before bringing the refrigerator into the home, be sure there is
adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigerator upright. See
“Tipping Radius” in the “Design Specifications” section for more
information.
If you do not have adequate ceiling height to stand the
refrigerator upright, the tipping radius can be reduced by
removing the top grille and side trims (see the following chart).

2. Push the top grille straight up, then pull straight out. Lay the
grille on a soft surface.

the refrigerator and remove the side trims.
