INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Instructions
INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR
REFRIGERATOR LOCATION
Ŷ Do not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will go below 60°F (16°C) because
it will not run often enough to maintain proper
temperatures.
Ŷ Do not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will go above 100°F (37°C) because
it will not perform properly.
Ŷ Do not install the refrigerator in a location exposed
to water (rain, etc.) or direct sunlight.
Ŷ Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully
loaded.
CLEARANCES
Allow the following clearances for ease of
installation, proper air circulation and plumbing and
electrical connections.
Sides 1/8” (3 mm)
Top 1” (25 mm) Cabinet/Hinge Cover
Back 2” (50 mm)
REMOVING THE REFRIGERATOR
DOORS
Ŷ IMPORTANT NOTE: This refrigerator is 37-1/8”
(943 mm) deep (refer to chart on previous page).
Doors and passageways leading to the installation
location must be at least 37-1/8” (943 mm) wide
in order to leave the doors and handles attached
to the refrigerator while transporting it into the
installation location. If passageways are less
than 37-1/8” (943 mm), the refrigerator doors and
handles can easily be scratched and damaged.
The top cap and doors can be removed to allow
the refrigerator to be safely moved indoors. If
passageways are less than 34-9/16” (878 mm),
start with Step 1.
Ŷ If it is not necessary to remove doors, skip to Step
11. Leave tape and all packaging on doors until the
refrigerator is in the final location.
Ŷ NOTE: Use a padded hand truck to move this
refrigerator. Place the refrigerator on the hand
truck with a side against the truck. We strongly
recommend that TWO PEOPLE move and
complete this installation.
