INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Unpack the Refrigerator

IMPORTANT: Allow the refrigerator to stand upright for a

minimum of 2 hours after unpacking it and before plugging it into

the electrical outlet. See “Electrical Requirements.” This allows

the refrigerant to settle properly and prevents damage to the

cooling system.

Remove Packaging Materials

■ Remove and properly dispose of packaging materials.

Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning

on the refrigerator. Rub 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. For

more information, see “Refrigerator Safety.”

Clean Before Use

After you remove and properly dispose of all packaging materials,

clean the inside of your refrigerator before using it. See the

cleaning instructions in “Refrigerator Care.”

Location Requirements

Allow at least 5" (13 cm) of air space on each side of the

refrigerator and 3¹⁵⁄₁₆" (10 cm) of air space at the top of the

refrigerator. If the hinge side is against a wall, leave extra space so

the door can open wider.

NOTE: Do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or

other heat source, in a location with prolonged exposure to direct

sunlight, nor in a location where the temperature will fall below

55°F (13°C).

Electrical Requirements

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is

important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended Grounding Method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 or 20 amp fused, grounded

electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate

circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet

that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an

extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or

removing a light bulb, turn the refrigerator control to 0 and then

disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you

are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and

reset the control to the desired setting.

WARNING

for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor.

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 refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
