WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

NOTES:

■The cabinet depth refrigerator can be installed into a recessed opening, at the end of cabinets or as a freestanding refrigerator.

■If you are installing the refrigerator to fit flush with the front of the base cabinets, all shoe molding and baseboards must be removed from the rear of the refrigerator opening. Allow for 1" (2.54 cm) of space behind the refrigerator.

■Location should permit doors to open fully. See the “Door Swing Dimensions” section.

■This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range for optimum performance, which reduces electricity usage and provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near a heat source, such as an oven or radiator.
