Preparing to install the refrigerator.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Water Supply to the Icemaker 

(on some models)

If the refrigerator has an icemaker, it will have to be connected to a
cold water line.

A water supply kit (containing copper tubing, shutoff valve, fittings
and instructions) is available at extra cost from your dealer or from
Parts and Accessories, 800-626-2002. 

Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below
60°F (16°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain
proper temperatures.

Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

circulation and plumbing and electrical connections:

Sides
