First Steps

This Owner’s Guide provides specific operating instructions for your model. Use the
refrigerator only as instructed in this Owner’s Guide. 

Before starting the refrigerator,

follow these important first steps.

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.

• Consider water supply availability for models equipped with an automatic ice

maker.

Installation

• Do not install the refrigerator where temperature will drop below 60°F (15°C)

or rise above 110°F (43°C).The compressor will not be able to maintain proper
temperatures.

• Allow space around the unit for good air circulation. Leave a 1 inch (25 mm)

space behind and a 3 inch (75 mm) space above the refrigerator for adequate
circulation.

• In a recessed installation, allow an extra 1/2 inch (10-15 mm) on each side, for

ease of installation.

• For best circulation, elevate the unit 1 inch (25 mm) from the floor, especially

if the floor is carpeted.

Door Opening

The doors should open to allow easy access to a counter when removing food.
• Do not position the refrigerator so you have to walk around the refrigerator

doors.

• Reverse the doors, if necessary. See 

Door Reversal Instructions

.

Leveling

All four corners of refrigerator must rest firmly on a solid floor.

To adjust front rollers:

1. Open refrigerator door and remove Toe Grille. (Figure 1)

2. Use an adjustable wrench to adjust rollers. (Figure 2)

3. Turn 

Roller Adjusting Bolt

 clockwise to raise and counter-clockwise to lower.

Raise the front of cabinet enough so doors will close freely when opened
halfway.

4. Level cabinet side to side.

5. Replace Toe Grille. (Figure 1)

Cleaning

• Wash the inside, all removable parts, and the outside with mild detergent and

warm water.  Wipe dry.  

Do Not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.

• Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments that can scratch appliance

surface, when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or energy
label can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or
touch  residue with sticky side of tape already removed.

Do not remove the Serial Plate.

To Remove Toe grille

: Grip sides of Toe

Grille and pull straight off.

To Replace Toe Grille

: Line up clips with

holes and push straight on.
