If the refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling system may not work properly.
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, you need a minimum clearance of 3 ¾” (95mm) between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open.

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 359lbs (165kg). To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton and place it under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving a refrigerator, you need to pull and push it straight forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from side to side.
