INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk associated with
choking, do not allow children under 3 years of age to
have access to small parts during the installation of
this product.
REFRIGERATOR LOCATION
IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for
freestanding installation only. It should not be
recessed or built-in an enclosed cabinet. To ensure
your refrigerator works at optimum efficiency, you
should install it in a location where there is proper air
circulation, and electrical connections.
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.
Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature
will go above 100°F (37°C) because it will not
perform properly.
Do not install the refrigerator in a location exposed to
water (rain, etc.) or direct sunlight.
Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully
loaded.
Installation dimensions: minimum width 25.4”,
minimum height 60.2”.
UNPACKING REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: Handle with care when moving
refrigerator to avoid either damaging the refrigerant
tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
IMPORTANT: When moving the refrigerator, never
tilt it more than a 45° angle. This could damage the
compressor and the sealed system. If the refrigerator
has been placed in a horizontal position for any
period of time, wait 24 hours before plugging in the
refrigerator to allow the refrigerant to settle.
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the
corrugated base and all adhesive tape holding the
refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing,
tape or printed materials before powering on the
refrigerator.
3. If your refrigerator comes with smooth or stainless
steel doors, please remove the clear film before
turning it on for the first time. When removing the
film, do not pull the film straight down as this could
result in misaligned doors.
4. It is normal for the freezer door to be positioned
slightly higher than the top of the cabinet when the
refrigerator is first installed. This positioning is done
at the factory to ensure a proper gasket seal once
the door is weighted with food items.
CLEARANCES

efficiency it was designed for, you should
install it in a location where there is proper air
circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
Your refrigerator is not designed to operate in

LEVELING REFRIGERATOR
Your refrigerator has two leveling legs that

refrigerator. After properly placing your refrigerator
under its final position, you can level your
