WATER SUPPLY TO THE ICEMAKER (ON SOME MODELS)

If the refrigerator has an icemaker, it will have to be connected to a cold water line. A GE water supply kit (containing tubing, shutoff valve, fittings and instructions) is available at extra cost from your dealer, by visiting our Website at GEAppliances.com (in Canada at geappliances.ca) or from Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002 (in Canada 1.888.261.3055).

REFRIGERATOR LOCATION

•Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 60°F (16°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain proper temperatures.

•Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go above 100°F (37°C) because it will not perform properly.

•Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

CLEARANCES

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation and plumbing and electrical connections:

	23′	25′, 27′ and 29′
• Sides	1/8″ (4 mm)	1/8″ (4 mm)
• Top	1″ (2.5 cm)	1″ (2.5 cm)
• Back	1/2″ (13 mm)	1″ (2.5 cm)

ROLLERS

The rollers have 3 purposes:

■Rollers adjust so the door closes easily when opened about halfway. (Raise the front about 5/8″ [16 mm] from the floor.)

■Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on the floor and does not wobble.

■Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from the wall for cleaning.

Final leveling adjustments should be made after the refrigerator has been installed.

To adjust the rollers on 25′, 27′ and 29′models:

■Turn the roller adjusting screws clockwise to raise

the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower

it. Use a 3/8″ hex socket or wrench, or an adjustable wrench.
