The Installation Space
Selecting the best location for the refrigerator
• A location with easy access to the water supply.
• A location without direct exposure to sunlight.
• A location with a leveled floor.
• A location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily.
• Allow sufficient space for air circulation of the internal cooling system.
If the refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling system may not work properly.
•
Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing.
This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
•
Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50ºF
(10ºC).
•
Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become wet.
FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a
leveled surface of hard material that is the same height as the
rest of the flooring. This surface should be strong enough to
support a fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately 328lbs
(150kg). To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large section
of the cardboard carton and place under the refrigerator where
you are working. When moving a refrigerator, it is needed to
pull and push in the back-and-forth direction.

If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections.
When you install the refrigerator next to a fixed wall, minimum clearance is 3 ¾” (95mm) between the
refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open.
First thing! Make sure that you can easily move your Refrigerator to its final location by measuring doorways
(both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc.
