Use & Care Guide

Installation

Your refrigerator has been packed carefully for shipment. Remove and discard shelf packaging and tape. Do not remove the serial plate.

The following pages contain “Measuring and Opening” instructions particular to each of the models and sizes. Ensure you choose the correct instructions for your model.

•If refrigerator is installed beside a cooking appli- ance, (not recommended) it is important that there be at least 5" (13 cm) between the refrigerator and range for proper air circulation.

•Do not install refrigerator near a radiator or other heat source. If not possible, shield refrigerator with cabinet material.

•Do not install where temperature falls below 55° F (13° C) or rises above 110° F (43° C). Malfunction may occur at this temperature.

•Refrigerator is designed for indoor household application only.

Measuring the Opening

(see page 10 diagram)

If refrigerator is to be installed into a recess verify and use the following dimensions

1.) Cut out height for refrigerator, where the top of the refrigerator is completely covered: 70” (177.8 cm) - space provides the necessary gap above the refrigerator for tool access to fasten anti-tip bracket (see details below)

2.) Cut out width for refrigerator’s main body: 36½"

(93 cm)

3.) Max. cut-out depth: 24 1/2” (62 cm) When installing your refrigerator, measure carefully. Allow ½" space at top and ½" space behind the machine compartment cover (locat- ed in the rear) for proper air circulation.

AntiTip Bracket: Every refrigerator includes an anti-tip bracket which must be properly installed to prevent the refrigerator from tipping forward should downward pressure be applied with both doors

open. To fasten bracket to the wall, distance from floor to underside of bracket will be 68-3/4 (174.6 cm) min to 69-1/4 (176 cm) max. Mark wall where studs are located. Fasten anti-tip bracket to the wall

Subflooring or floor coverings (ie carpet, tile, wood floors, rugs) may make your opening smaller than anticipated.

Some clearance may be gained by using the leveling procedure under Leveling.

IMPORTANT! Corner Installations: To allow door to open 90 degrees, corner installations must allow 4” (10 cm) space between wall and refrigerator on hinge side. Filler wood strip rec- ommended for aesthetics.
