Note:

 The refrigerator should be installed on a firm and level surface that will be able to support 

the entire weight of a fully loaded unit. It is important for the refrigerator to be level in order to 

work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the refrigerator by rotating the feet. See the 

“Leveling the Refrigerator” section.

Note:

 A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in accordance with 

National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.

Notes:

• 

To ensure proper service access and ventilation, allow between 1 - 2 inches of clearance at 

the back as shown in the diagram.

• 

The installation should allow the unit to be pulled forward for servicing, if necessary.

• 

A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in accordance with 

National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
