This Use & Care Guide provides general operating instructions for your model. Use the refrigerator only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important first steps.

If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher or other heat sources.
