GETTING READY TO INSTALL

THE REFRIGERATOR

Congratulations on your purchase of the Kenmore Elite TM Side-By-Side Refrigerator. We hope you enjoy the many state-of-the-art features and efficiencies that this new appliance offers.

Selecting the best location for the refrigerator.

•A location with easy access to the water supply.

•A location without direct exposure to sunlight.

•A location with level (or nearly level) flooring.

•A location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily.

•Allow sufficient space for air circulation of the internal cooling system. If the refrigerator is not level or does not have enough space, the internal cooling system may not work properly.

CLEARANCES

Allow clearance to the right, left, back, and top when installing. (See drawing in column 1 .) This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50°F (10°C).

Make sure to disconnect the water supply line BEFORE removing the freezer door. See "Refrigerator and Freezer Door Removal and Installation" on page 11 to avoid damage.

To prevent damage to the floor while moving the refrigerator, always make sure the front leveling legs are in the up position (above the floor). Refer to "Positioning and Leveling the Refrigerator" on page 15.

FLOORING

For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a level 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 309 Ibs (140 kg). To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton and place under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving, be sure to pull the unit straight out and push the unit straight in.
