UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
LEVELING LEGS
Adjustable legs at the front corners of the refrigerator
should be set so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on
the floor, and the front is raised just enough that the
door closes easily when opened about halfway.
To adjust the leveling legs, turn the legs clockwise
to raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower
it.
POWER CORD
• Plug the refrigerator power cord into its own properly
grounded wall outlet with a voltage rating matching
that on the refrigerator rating plate.
• Do not use an extension cord.

enough to maintain proper temperatures.
• Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully
loaded.
• Free-standing installation only.
• If the refrigerator is being installed next to a wall,
leave sufficient space on the hinge side to allow the
door to swing open enough to access the clear bins
in the refrigerator compartment.
• Do not install within 5” (13 cm) of the range.
• Minimum Clearances:
Back 2” from wall
Sides 3/4”

• Remove tape and any labels (except for the rating la-
bel) from your refrigerator. Tape or glue residue can
also be removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid
dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe
with warm water and dry.
• Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flam-
mable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or
glue. These products can damage the surface of
your refrigerator.

tor beyond 45° from upright position.
