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 attached to back
wall of the refrigerator.

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. For more information,

section. 

Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping
position.

Please reinstall shelves according to your
individual storage needs.

1.

Avoid placing the unit near heat sources, direct
sunlight, or moisture.

2.

To avoid vibration, the unit must be level. If
required, adjust the leveling screws to
compensate for unevenness of the floor.
The front should be slightly higher than the rear
to aid in door closing.
Leveling screws can be turned easily by tipping
the cabinet slightly.
Turn the leveling screws clockwise (        ) to
raise the unit, counterclockwise (        ) to 
lower it.

3.

Install this appliance between 55 °F (13 °C)
and 110 °F (43 °C.) If the temperature around
the appliance is too low or high, cooling ability
may lessen.

compartment to ensure proper cooling.
