Installation Requirements
Read Carefully
Use of Adapter Plug
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against use of
an adapter plug. However, you
still elect to use an adapter, where
local
codes permit, TEMPORARY
CONNECTION may be made to
properly grounded two-prong
outlet by use of a UL listed adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in
the wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the
power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
outlet is grounded through house
wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always
hold the adapter with one hand. If
this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE
the appliance until a proper
ground has again been
established.
Use of Extension Cords
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that
it be a UL listed 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord
having a grounding type plug
and outlet and that the electrical
rating the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own
individual electrical
( 115 volt,
Hertz, or
volt, 50
Hertz. single phase AC). This is
recommended for best performance
and to prevent overloading house
wiring circuits. which
cause
a fire hazard from overheating
wires.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below
because will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong
enough support a fully loaded
refrigerator.

Tips
regarding
Clearances
the following clearances
ease installation and proper air
circulation:
Sides . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5/8”
Top . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1“
Back . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1“
the refrigerator is against a wall
on either side, allow 3/4”
door
clearance.
Water Supply to Icemaker
You will need to connect your
icemaker to
water inc. A
water
kit containing copper
tubing. shut-off
fittings and
instruction
at extra
cost from your dealer. There
should be sufficient tubing
the
icemaker
the cold water
supply to allow
[o
the
refrigerator out from the
feet (approximately feet
1/4” copper tubing in three
inch diameter coil s.)
Rollers
Adjustable rollers behind the base
grille enable you to move the
refrigerator away from the wall for
cleaning. These rollers should be set
so the refrigerator rests firmly on the
floor. To assure that the doors will
close automatically from a
open position,
is a built-in
from the front to the back of the
cabinet. Side-by-side refrigerators
also have specially designed door
hinges that lift both doors slightly
when opened. allowing the force of
gravity to help close them securely.
To adjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
Turn
adjusting screws
clockwise to raise refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use
adjustable wrench (3/8” hex head
bolt) or pliers.
When adjusting front rollers for
proper door closure, we recommend
the bottom front edge of the
cabinet be approximately 5/8” from
the floor.
To replace base grille, align prongs
on back of grille with clamps in
cabinet and push forward until grille
snaps into place.
