GE Monogram All-Refrigerators and All-Freezers Preparation, Refrigerator/ freezer location

Preparation

36” All-Refrigerator and All-Freezer Units

Refrigerator/ freezer location

Do not install the refrigerator/freezer where temperatures will be below 60°F (16°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain proper temperatures, and the refrigerator will develop high internal humidity.

For proper installation, the refrigerator/ freezer must be placed on a level surface of hard material the same height as the rest of the flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator/freezer, or approximately 1,200 lbs. each. See the Installation Instructions for complete directions.

Clearances

If the refrigerator/freezer is to be installed in

a corner, a 4" clearance is required on the hinge side for a 90° door opening and access to fresh food drawers. A 15" clearance is required on the hinge side to remove pans. A 25" clearance is required on the hinge side for a full 130° door swing.

No other clearances at top, sides or back are required. See the Installation Instructions for complete directions.

Anti-tip bracket

The unit is top-heavy and must be secured to prevent the possibility of tipping forward. An anti-tip bracket must be installed to secure this unit to the wall. The following pages show the installation of this bracket.
