Installing Your Refrigerator
These instructions were provided to aid you in the installation of your unit. Sears cannot be responsible for improper
installation.
How to Transport Your Unit
Follow these tips when moving the unit to final location:
NEVER transport unit on its side. If an upright position is not possible lay
unit on its back. Allow unit to sit upright for approximately 30 minutes prior
to plugging unit in to assure oil return to the compressor. Plugging unit in
immediately may cause damage to internal parts.
Use an appliance dolly when moving unit. ALWAYS truck unit from its
side-NEVER from its front or back.
Protect outside finish of unit during transport by wrapping cabinet in
blankets or inserting padding between the unit and dolly.
Secure unit to dolly firmly with straps or bungee cords. Thread straps
through handles when possible. DO NOT overtighten. Overtightening
restraints may dent or damage outside finish,

This refrigerator was designed to fit a 69" tall
opening to allow for proper ventilation,
leveling, and door adjustments.
Please also take into account, when
measuring space for your unit, that some
models require a certain amount of
clearance around it to allow for proper air
flow. Proper air flow is key to keep your unit
running a optimum efficiency. To determine
measurements, please reference the table

Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet tile,
wood floors, rugs) may make your opening |
smaller than anticipated.
Some clearance may be gained by using the _1_1
leveling procedure under "How to Level Your
Refrigerator",
DO NOT install refrigerator near oven, radiator, or other heat source. If
that is not possible, shield refrigerator with cabinet material.
