/Installation Instructions
Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment. Remove and discard shelf packing clips (if used) located just above each shelf where they hook onto the frame. To remove plastic clips wiggle the clips sideways and pull straight out.

R e f ri g e r a t o r
•Allow for a free flow of air through the front base grille,
•Install the refrigerator where the room temperature will
not go below 55 ° F. With temperatures below 55 °, the
refrigerator will not run frequently enough to maintain proper temperature in the freezer.
•Allow a minimum 1/2" clearance on the sides, top and back for ease of installation. If the refrigerator is placed
with the door hinge side against awall, you may want to allow additional space so the door can be opened wider,
•Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or hard- wood floors so as not to mark or otherwise damage the flooring. A piece of plywood, a rug or other material should be used to protect the floor while positioning the unit.
Leveling is Important
Toenhanceappearanceandtomaintainoptimal perfor-
mance, the refrigerator must be level. Your refrigerator has wheels which can be adjusted for leveling:
•Remove the lower hinge covers (see fig. 1). To do this, grasp each cover near the hinge and apply pressure. The
attachment tabs will snap out, allowing removal of the covers.
•Adjust the wheels with a screwdriver (see fig. 2).
•To lock the cabinet in place, turn down both
leveling/lock feet, located near the front wheels (see fig. 3). Rear leveling/lock feet are not required.
•Replace the hinge covers.
•If the floor is not level and it is necessary to raise the rear of the cabinet, we suggest rolling the rear wheels onto a piece of plywood or other shim material.
