LOCATING THE ANTI-TIP FLOOR
BRACKET
Place the anti-tip floor bracket locator template
(included inside the anti-tip kit) onto the floor up
against the rear wall, within W, and in line with the
desired location of the RH side of the refrigerator
(see Figure 1).
Place the anti-tip floor bracket onto the locator
template with its RH floor holes lined up with
the floor holes indicated on the template sheet,
approximately 15 ¼” from the edge of the sheet or
the RH side of the refrigerator.
Hold down in position and use the anti-tip floor
bracket as a template for marking the holes based
upon your configuration and type of construction
as shown in Step 3. Mark the hole locations with a
pencil, nail or awl.
NOTE:
It is REQUIRED to use at least 2 screws to mount
the floor bracket (one on each side of the anti-tip
floor bracket). Both must be into either the wall
or the floor. Figure 2 indicates all the acceptable
mounting configurations for screws. Identify the
screw holes on the anti-tip floor bracket for your
configuration.

WARNING
Tip Over Hazard.
Built-in style models (model PYE, CYE, and PWE) are
top heavy, especially with any doors open. These
models must be secured with the anti-tip floor
bracket to prevent tipping forward, which could
result in death or serious injury. Read and follow
the entire installation instructions for installing the
anti-tip floor bracket packed with your refrigerator.

If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your
