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.

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.

Sides 1/8″ (4 mm)

Top 1″ (25 mm)

Back 1″ (25 mm)

A door clearance of 3/4″ (19 mm) is needed for a 90° door opening which provides better access to the food storage area.

ROLLERS

The rollers have 3 purposes:

Rollers adjust so the door closes easily when opened about halfway.

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.

To adjust the rollers, remove the base grille by pulling it out at the bottom.

Turn the roller adjusting screws clockwise to raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it. Use an adjustable wrench (3/8″ hex head bolt) or pliers.

To replace base grille, line up the clips on back of grille between the bar and the bottom of the cabinet. Push forward until grille snaps into place.
