Grounding Method

Pick the Right Place

Save steps by putting your refrigerator near the sink and next to a countertop. It should not be near a stove, radiator, water heater or

any source of heat...including direct sunlight.

You can install it flush against the wall in back. Leave % inch (1.3

cm] clearance against cabinets on each side for ease of installa- tion. Do you want it in a corner? Leave room between a wall and the

right side to allow clearance when the refrigerator door is opened. In a left hand corner, an inch (2.5 cm] should be enough to clear the ice and water dispenser.

You have an automatic ice maker. Will the refrigerator be near a cold water pipe? Some people run the water line through the floor to the basement. Others run it behind the cabinets to the pipes under the sink.

Make Sure It’s level.

Your refrigerator is on rollers; the two tront ones are adjustable for leveling.

Remove the base grill to uncover the leveling screws. With a screwdriver, turn each screwto the right to raise the front. [If you have someone tilt the top of the refrigerator back while turning. it will be easier.] Turn them to the left to lower the front.

Keep adjusting one or the other until the refrigerator won’t rock. Then raise or lower both by the same number of turns until the refrig- erator is level (use a level to check this]. Your refrigerator has door

closers to help prevent both doors from being accidentally left open.

Peel Off the labels.

Remove the Consumer Buy Guide label and other inside labels before using the refrigerator. Any glue left can be taken off with rubbing alcohol.

Do not remove the Tech Sheet fastened behind the base grill.

Wash It.

To clean your refrigerator before using it, check the washing in- structions in this booklet.
