UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Remove tape and any temporary labels from your
refrigerator before using. Do not remove any warning-
type labels, the model and serial number label, or
the Tech Sheet that is located under the front of the
refrigerator, behind the base grille.
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area
briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be
easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish
soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm
water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.
Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping position.
Please reinstall shelves according to your individual
storage needs.
Excessive Weight Hazard:
Use two or more people to move and install the
refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in back or
other injury.
Excessive Weight Hazard:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the
refrigerator for cleaning or service, be sure to protect
the floor. Always pull the refrigerator straight out when
moving it. Do not wiggle or walk the refrigerator when
trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.
Explosion Hazard:
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from the refrigerator. Failure to do so
can result in fire, explosion, or death.
DIMENSIONS AND CLEARANCES
•
Check the dimensions of the appliance and the installation path to ensure there is sufficient room to move the
refrigerator through doors or narrow openings.
•
If an opening is too narrow to fit the refrigerator through, remove the refrigerator doors. See Removing and
Replacing Refrigerator Doors in this manual.
•
The installation location chosen for the refrigerator should allow space behind the unit for connections and airflow
and space in front to open the doors and drawers.
• Too small of a distance from adjacent items may result in lowered freezing capability and increased electricity
consumption charges. Allow at least 27 inches (686 mm) in front of the refrigerator to open the doors, and at least
2 inches (51 mm) between the back of the refrigerator and the wall.
