2. Installing your appliance
WARNING: Keep flammable materials and vapors such as gasoline away from the
refrigerator.
•
Place your appliance in a well-ventilated area on a floor that is strong enough to support
it when fully loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the leg at the front of the appliance.
•
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, leave not less that 12” of space at the
top and 4" on both sides and the back.
•
If you are installing the refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave sufficient space on the
hinge side to allow for the door to swing open at least 120°.
•
Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater,
radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight can affect the refrigerator's coating and heat sources can
increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause
the appliance to perform improperly.
•
Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air can promote
rusting and will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent
defrosting of the appliance.
•
Never place any weight on the electrical cord.
