It is important to prepare your refrigerator for use. This section will tell you how to clean it, connect it to
a power source, install it and level it.
Cleaning it
Clean your refrigerator before using it, if neces-
sary. See cleaning instructions on page 18.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 220 or 240 Volt, 50 Hz., AC only 15 or 20
ampere fused and properly grounded electrical
supply is required. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this appliance be
provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be
turned off with a switch or pull chain. Do not use
an extension cord.
Installing it properly
1. Allow 1.25 cm (I/Z inch) space on each side
and at the top of the refrigerator for ease of
installation.
2. If the refrigerator is to be against a wall, you
might want to leave extra space on the hinge
side closest to the wall so the door can be
opened wider.
For ED27DQ only: A minimum of 2.9 cm
(1 YE inch) between the refrigerator door and
wall is required, or a minimum of 3.8 cm
(1% inch) between the freezer door and wall is
required.
3. The refrigerator can be flush against the wall.
4. Make sure ice maker water supply has been
connected. Refer to Installation Instructions.
