INSURE PROPER GROUND
EXISTS BEFORE USE
Have wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure outlet is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Refrigerator Location
Install the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to
support it when it is fully loaded.
Do not install refrigerator where temperature will
go below
because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO
CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR TO A
TWO-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH
THIS
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet—(1 15 volt, 60
Hertz, single phase AC—protected by a 20-amp time
delay fuse or circuit breaker). This is recommended
for best performance and to prevent overloading
house wiring circuits, which could cause a fire
hazard from overheating wires.
IMPORTANT: The water line and the electrical
outlet must be installed in the exact location described
in the Installation Instructions (Pub. No. 49-6457).
Clearances
If the refrigerator is to be installed in a corner, allow
2“ between the hinges of the refrigerator and the wall
to assure a 90° door opening capability.
No other clearances at top, sides or back are required.
Leveling
This model has 4-point leveling. All four corners are
supported by leveling legs. The front wheels are non-
adjustable; they are only used for positioning the unit.
●
To level the back of the unit, turn hex nut located
above the front wheels.
●
To level the front of the unit, use a 1‘/4” open end
wrench and adjust the leveling legs.
●
Turn hex nut or front leveling leg clockwise to raise
the unit, counter-clockwise to lower the unit.
See the Installation Instructions (Pub. No. 49-6457)
for complete directions.
