Safe Servicing Practices For All Appliances
Avoid personal injury and/or property damage by observing important Safe Servicing Practices.
Following are some limited examples of safe practices:
1. DO NOT attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete the repair in a safe and
satisfactory manner.
2. Do not exceed maximum recommended wattage on light bulb replacements. Doing so could blow fuses and/or
damage transformers.
3. Before servicing or moving an appliance:
• Remove power cord from the electrical outlet, trip circuit breaker to the OFF position, or remove fuse.
• Turn off water supply if applicable.
• Turn off gas supply if applicable.
4. Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.
5. Use ONLY REPLACEMENT PARTS CATALOGED FOR THIS APPLIANCE. Substitutions may defeat compliance
with safety standards set for home appliances.
6. GROUNDING: The standard color coding for safety ground wires is GREEN, or GREEN with YELLOW STRIPES.
Ground leads are not to be used as current carrying conductors. It is EXTREMELY important that the service
technician reestablish all safety grounds prior to completion of service. Failure to do so will create a hazard.
7. Prior to returning the product to service, ensure that:
• All electrical connections are correct and secure.
• All electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp edges, high-temperature components,
and moving parts.
• All non-insulated electrical terminals, connectors, heaters, etc. are adequately spaced away from all metal
parts and panels.
• All safety grounds (both internal and external) are correctly and securely connected.
• All panels are properly and securely reassembled.

Installation Information
2-1
CAUTION
Do Not install the refrigerator where the temperature
will drop below 55°F (13°C) or rise above 110°F
(43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain
proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.
Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front of your
refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation is essential for the
proper operation of your refrigerator.
This Use & Care Guide provides general installation and
operating instructions for your model. We recommend
using a service or kitchen contracting professional to
install your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as
instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting
the refrigerator, follow these important first steps.
Location
• Choose a place that is near a grounded, non-GFCI,
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension cord or
an adapter plug.
• If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct
sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher, or
other heat sources.
• The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that is
level and strong enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator.
• Consider water supply availability for models
equipped with an automatic ice maker.
Installation
• Allow the following clearances for ease of
installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing
and electrical connections:
Sides & Top 3/8inch (9.5 mm)
Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)
Door opening
Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy
access to a counter when removing food. For best use of
refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be in a position where both can be fully opened.
Required Tools
You will need the following tools:
ÍNOTE
If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge side
against a wall, you may have to allow additional space
so the door can be opened wider.
ÍNOTE
The refrigerator doors are designed to shut by
themselves within a 20 degree opening.

Doors (if necessary)
Guidelines for final positioning of your refrigerator:
• All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on
the floor.
• The sides should tilt 1/4inch (6 mm) from front to
back (to ensure that doors close and seal properly).
• Doors should align with each other and be level.
Most of these conditions can be met by raising or
lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
