Installing it properly
1. Allow % inch (1.25 cm) space on each side
and at the top of the refrigerator for ease of
installation.
2. If the hinge side of the refrigerator is to be
against a wall, you might want to leave extra
space so the door can be opened wider.
3. The refrigerator can be flush against the wall.
