Location Requirements
IMPORTANT:
■
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
■
It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source.
■
Do not install in a location where the temperature will fall
below 55°F (13°C).
■
Floor must support the refrigerator weight, more than 600 lbs
(272 kg), door panels and contents of the refrigerator. Flooring
under refrigerator must be at same level as the room. Face of
cabinetry must be plumb.
■
Ceiling height must allow for side tipping radius.
See “Tipping Radius.”
■
Location should permit door to open fully.
See “Door Swing Dimensions.”
■
Location must permit top grille removal.
See “Opening Dimensions.”
Opening Dimensions
IMPORTANT:
■
The width of the opening (Width A), from side to side, must be
as specified for your model for at least 2" (5.08 cm) back from
the face of the cabinet.
NOTE: If your opening does not meet this requirement, you will
need to make modifications.
■
A solid soffit or wall cabinet must be installed 84" (213.4 cm)
above the floor. If the solid soffit is higher than 84" (213.4 cm)
or one is not available, then the refrigerator must be braced.
If anti-tip boards are needed, they must be installed to the
rear wall studs so that the bottom of the anti-tip board is
84" (213.4 cm) from the floor. See “Install Anti-Tip Boards”
for more information.
NOTES:
■
Do not remove the foam gasket from the top of the
compressor cover unless removal is necessary to fit the
unit under a soffit. Removal of the gasket will cause loss
in cooling efficiency.
■
If installing under a solid soffit, after installation raise the
leveling legs so that the gasket is pressed snugly against
the soffit.
■
For a fully integrated installation, a minimum of 6" (15.24 cm)
of open space above the refrigerator is required. See “Fully
Integrated Installation.” Anti-tip boards are required. See
“Install Anti-Tip Boards” for more information.
■
A grounded 3 prong electrical outlet should be located within a
specified number of inches from the right-hand side cabinets or
end panel. See the chart following the graphic for the number
of inches required for your model. For more information, see
“Electrical Requirements.”
