First Steps

Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important first steps:

3" AIR SPACE

1"

1/2"

1/2"

1"

Clearance

Proper air circulation and leveling will ensure efficient operation.

Adjusting Screw-type Levelers (some models)

Location

Choose a place that is near a grounded 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 floor 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

Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 60°F (15°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures.

Allow space around the unit for good air circulation. Leave a 1 inch (25 mm) space behind and a 3 inch (75 mm) space above the refrigerator for adequate circulation.

In a recessed installation, allow an extra 1/2 inch (10-15 mm) on each side for ease of installation.

For best circulation, elevate the unit 1 inch (25 mm) from the floor, especially if the floor is carpeted.

Door Opening

The doors should open to allow easy access to a counter when removing food.

Do not position the refrigerator so you have to walk around the refrigerator doors.

Reverse the doors if necessary. See "Door Reversal Instructions."

Leveling

All four corners of refrigerator must rest firmly on a solid floor. Some models are equipped with adjustable screw-type levelers. Others are equipped with rollers. If your refrigerator did not come with rollers, they can be purchased from your dealer.

Remove toe grille (some models). See Toe Grille Instructions on page 13.

Exposed bolt (some models)

Sunken bolt (some models)

To adjust screw-type levelers (some models):

Tip cabinet back slightly and raise adjusting bolts as needed

To adjust front rollers (some models):

Use a screwdriver, 3/8” socket wrench, or nutdriver to adjust rollers.

RAISE THE FRONT of cabinet enough so doors will close freely when opened halfway. Level cabinet side to side.

Cleaning

Wash the inside, all removable parts and the outside with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.

Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments that can scratch the appliance surface, when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape or energy label can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or, touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed.

Do not remove the serial plate.
