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.

• 

Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

Allow the following clearances for ease of  installation,

proper air circulation and plumbing and electrical

connections.

Top 1” (25 mm)

Back 2” (50 mm)

near each front corner of  the refrigerator are

adjustable. They firmly position the refrigerator and prevent

it from moving when the doors are opened. Leveling legs

should be set so the front of  the refrigerator is raised just

enough that the doors close easily when opened about

halfway.

Turn the leveling legs clockwise to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it

.

next to the leveling legs allow you to move the

refrigerator away from the wall for cleaning.

Turn the legs counterclockwise until the weight of  the

refrigerator is transferred from them to the rollers. After

rolling the refrigerator back into place, turn the legs

clockwise until the legs again bear the weight of  the

refrigerator.

If  the refrigerator has an icemaker, it will have to be

connected to a cold water line. A water supply kit

(containing copper tubing, shutoff  valve, fittings and

instructions) is available at extra cost from your dealer, by
