INSTALLATION
This Use & Care Guide provides general
installation and operating instructions
for your model. We recommend
using a service or kitchen contracting
professional to install your refrigerator.
Use the refrigerator only as instructed in
this Use & Care Guide. Before starting
the refrigerator, follow these
important rst steps.
Location
• Choose a place that is near a
grounded, non-GFCI, 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 oor 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
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides & Top ⅜ inch (9.5 mm)
Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)
Door opening
Your refrigerator should be positioned
to allow easy access to a counter
when removing food. For best use of
refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets,
the refrigerator should be in a position
where both can be fully opened.

CAUTION
Do Not install the refrigerator where
the temperature will drop below 55°F
(13°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C).
The compressor will not be able to
maintain proper temperatures inside
the refrigerator.
Do Not block the toe grille on the lower
front of your refrigerator. Sufcient air
circulation is essential for the proper
operation of your refrigerator.
Note
If your refrigerator is placed with the
door hinge side against a wall, you
may have to allow additional space so
the door can be opened wider.
