CAUTION
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
ensure your product performs to specifications, the recom-
mended installation location temperature range is from 5
0
to 1
00
°F (1
0
to
38
°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-
ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstructed.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the
front grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat ex-
changer. Restrictions to this air flow will result in increased
energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason
it is important this area not be obstructed and the grille
openings kept clean (See Figure 1). The use of a custom
made grille is not recommended as it may restrict air flow.

INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-
ance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the
floor and level from side to side and front to back. The
overall height of your appliance may be adjusted between
the minimum, 33
3
⁄
4
" (85.7 cm), by turning the leveling leg in
(CW
↷
) and the maximum, 34
3
⁄
4
" (88.3 cm) by turning the
leveling leg out (CCW
↶)
.
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs.
Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-
ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the
appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-
justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 2).
