PREPARATION

Step 2

When units are installed side by side, a separating filler strip is recommended. The filler strip width should be added to the finished rough opening dimension. A filler strip must also be used when units are installed hinge to hinge.

IMPORTANT: For proper operation and use the door must open a minimum of 90 0 • A minimum 2" filler must be used in corner installations to assure a 90 0 door opening. Remember to allow enough clearance in front of unit for full door swing, Minimum door clearance listed in Figure 2.

IMPORTANT NOTE: We also require the floor under

the refrigerator to be at the same level as the surrounding finished floor.

Any finished flooring should be protected with appropriate material to avoid damage from very

heavy appliance.

If unit fits under soffit with clearance between top of unit and soffit of 1" or less as in Figure 3 unit does not require blocking, otherwise blocking is required. Refer to step 8.

ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

Step 3

Rough in the electrical outlet following the "Pre-Installation Specifications". See Figure 1.

A 115 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp fused electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only this appliance, be provided.

Follow any other local codes or ordinances that may also apply.

PLUMBING INSTRUCTIONS

Step 4

For units with automatic icemaker, rough in the water supply line.

Connect a '/4" copper line to the house supply being sure to use an easily accessible shut off valve between the supply and your refrigerator (approximately 6" from the compression fitting). The icemaker operates on water pressure of 20 to 100 PSI.

NOTE: A line filter is required when water conditions have a high sediment content. Do not use "self piercing" valves. Saddle valve kit (part #4-20-088-0) available from your distributor.
