Unpacking the Refrigerator
WARNING
• Use two or more people to move and install the
refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in back
injury or other injury.
• The refrigerator is heavy. Protect the floor when
moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service.
Always pull the refrigerator straight out when
moving it. Do not wiggle or walk the refrigerator
when trying to move it, as floor damage could
occur.
• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from the refrigerator. Failure to
do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
NOTE
• Remove tape and any temporary labels from
your refrigerator before using. Do not remove
any warning labels, the model and serial number
label, or the Tech Sheet that is located under the
front of the refrigerator.
• To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the
area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue
residue can also be easily 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,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These products can damage the
surface of your refrigerator.
• Reinstall or adjust shelves as needed.
Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping
position. Reinstall shelves according to your
individual storage needs.
Choosing the Proper
Location
Electricity
Use an individual, grounded outlet:115 Volts, 60
Hz, AC, 15 amps minimum.
WARNING
• Do not overload house wiring and cause a fire
hazard by plugging in multiple appliances in the
same outlet with the refrigerator.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not install
the refrigerator in a wet or damp area.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be
installed and leveled on a solidly constructed floor.
If required, adjust the leveling legs to compensate
for the unevenness of the floor.
NOTE
• Installing on carpeting, soft tile surfaces, a
platform or weakly supported structure is not
recommended.
Ambient Temperature
Install this appliance in an area where the
temperature is between 55 °F (13 °C) and 110 °F
(43 °C).
If the temperature around the appliance is too low
or high, cooling ability may be adversely affected.
Installing the Rear Spacers
This feature is only available on some models.
Install the spacers on the upper corners at the
back of the appliance. The spacers are included
with the accessory kit inside the appliance.
NOTE
• The spacers help improve the energy efficiency
of the appliance by providing clearance between
the back of the appliance and the wall. This
allows for improved air circulation.
