■Board(s) must be long enough to fully cover the width of the compressor cover.

■Locate the board(s) so the bottom surface(s) of the board(s) is(are) 84" (213 cm) from the floor.

■During installation, raise the refrigerator up until the top of the refrigerator is making contact with the bottom of the anti-tip board(s). Do not crush the compressor cover when raising the rear leveling legs.
