Grounding Method

Pick the Right Place.

Save steps by putting your refrigerator near the sink and next to a countertop. It should not be near a stove, radiator, water heater or

any source of heat...including direct sunlight.

You can install it flush against the wall in back. Leave % inch (1.3 cm] clearance against cabinets on each side for ease of instal- lation. Do you want it in a corner? Leave some room on the wall side if you want the doors to open wider.

Planning to add the automatic ice maker? Will the refrigerator be near a cold water pipe? Some people run the water line through the floor to the basement. Others run it behind the cabinets to the pipes under the sink.

Make Sure It’s level.

Remove the base grill to uncover the two leveling legs. Turn each leg to the right to lower the front. Turn them to the left to raise the front. (If you have someone tilt the top of the refrigerator back while turn- ing, it will be easier.)

Keep adjusting one or the other until the refrigerator won’t rock. Then raise or lower both by the same number of turns until the refrig- erator is level (use a level to check this). If you don’t have a level, the refrigerator will be about right when you can open the doors part way and they will stay where you put them.

Peel Off the labels.

Remove the Consumer Buy Guide label and other inside labels before using the refrigerator. Any glue left can be taken off with rubbing alcohol.

DO not remove the Tech Sheet tastened behind the base grill.

Wash It.

To clean your refrigerator before using it, check the washing in- structions in this booklet.
