INSTALLATION
Location
• Choose a place that is near a grounded
electrical outlet.
Do Not
use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
• If possible, place the refrigerator out of
direct sunlight and away from the range,
dishwasher or other heat sources.
• The refrigerator must be installed on a
floor that is level and strong enough to
support a fully loaded refrigerator.
CAUTION
DO NOT
install the refrigerator where the
temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or
rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor
will not be able to maintain proper
temperatures inside the refrigerator.
DO NOT
block the kick plate on the
lower front of your refrigerator. Sufficient
air circulation is essential for the proper
operation of your refrigerator.
Installation
Installation clearances:
• Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides - ⅜”
Top and Back - 1”
• Allow for trim kit if it is to be installed
with the unit.
NOTE
If your refrigerator is placed with the door
hinge side against a wall, you may have to
allow additional space so the door can be
opened wider.
