Location Requirements
The refrigerator can be recessed in an opening between cabinets
or installed at the end of a cabinet run using a side panel to
enclose the refrigerator.
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.
■
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
■
To avoid tipping during use, the solid soffit must be within 1"
(2.5 cm) maximum above the refrigerator. If the solid soffit is
higher than 1" (2.5 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 cm) from the floor. See “Install Anti-Tip Boards” for more
information.
NOTES:
■
A clearance of
¹⁄₂
" (1.3 cm) must be maintained above the
top grille in order for the top grille to be removed.
■
Do not remove the foam gasket on 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.
■
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.”
■
The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on
either side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible
area. If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the
plumbing for the water line can come through the floor or the
back wall. See “Water Supply Requirements” for more
information.
NOTE: Flooring under refrigerator must be at same level as the
room. Face of cabinetry must be plumb.
