adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and
outside, Slide out and remove plastic or foam guard used to
secure the compressor from shipping damage due to vibration
and shock,
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the refrigerator.
Leveling Your Refrigerator

front corners of your refrigerator. After properly placing your
refrigerator in its final position, you can level your refrigerator.
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your
refrigerator or by turning them counterclockwise to lower
your refrigerator. The refrigerator door will close easier when the
leveling legs are extended.
Proper Air Circulation
• To assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it
was designed for, you should install it in a location where there
is proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides ............... 3/4 "(19ram)
Top .................... 2" (50mm)

EmeeirieaRequire en[
Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in
order to accommodate a two plug outlet, This is adangerous practice
since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may
result in shock hazard.
InsiaH[i ilalions
Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or
heated e.g, garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to operate in
temperature settings below 55 ° Fahrenheit.
Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even
surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators,
baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc, Any floor unevenness
should be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom
corners of the refrigerator.
