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.
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. Sucient air
circulation is essential for the proper
operation of your refrigerator.
Installation
• Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:
Sides & Top ⅜” (9.5 mm)
Back 1” (25.4 mm)
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.
