Preparation
Stainless Steel Refrigerator
Rollers
The rollers have 3 purposes:
1.Rollers adjust so the door closes easily
when opened about halfway. [Raise the
front about 5/8″(15 mm) from the
floor.]
To assure that the doors will close
automatically from a halfway open position,
there is a built-in tilt from the front to the
back of the cabinet. Side-by-side
refrigerators also have specially designed
door hinges that lift both doors slightly
when opened, allowing the force of gravity
to help close them securely.
2.Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is firmly
positioned on the floor and does not
wobble.
3.Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator
away from the wall for cleaning.
To adjust the rollers, remove the base grille
by pulling it out at the bottom.
Turn the roller adjusting screws clockwise
to raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise
to lower it. Use an adjustable wrench (3/8″
hex head bolt) or pliers.
To replace base grille, align prongs on back
of grille with clamps in cabinet and push
forward until grille snaps into place.
Refrigerator
location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will be below 60°F (16°C)
because it will not run often enough to
maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong enough to
support a fully loaded refrigerator.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation,
plumbing and electrical connections.
Sides . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5/8″(15 mm)
Top . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1″(25 mm)
Back . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1″ (25 mm)
If the refrigerator is against a wall on
either side, allow 1
1
/
2
″(38 mm) for
door clearances.
Water supply
to icemaker
(on some models)
If your refrigerator has an icemaker, it will
have to be connected to a cold water line.
A water supply kit (containing copper
tubing, shutoff valve, fittings and
instructions) is available at extra cost from
your dealer or from Parts and Accessories,
800-626-2002.
There should be sufficient tubing for the
icemaker from the cold water supply to
allow you to move the refrigerator out
from the wall several feet [approximately
8 feet (244 cm) of 1/4″copper tubing in
three 10-inch (25 cm) diameter coils].
