Location Requirements
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a ¹/₄"
(6.35 mm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your
refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2¹⁄₂" (6.35 cm) minimum
clearance on the hinge side to allow for the door to swing open.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C). For
best performance, do not install the refrigerator behind a cabinet
door or block the base grille.
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, unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
Unpack the Refrigerator
Remove the Packaging
■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

REFRIGERATOR USE
Normal Sounds
Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn’t
make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be
concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces, such as the flooring and surrounding structures, can
make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds
of sounds and what may be making them.
■Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep
your food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize
energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may
cause your refrigerator to run longer than your old one. You
may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the
compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.
■Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant or items
stored inside the refrigerator.
■As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the
refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.
■You may hear water running into the drain pan when the
refrigerator is defrosting.
■You may hear clicking sounds when the refrigerator starts or
stops running.
Using the Control
For your convenience, your refrigerator control is preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.
Adjusting Controls
The mid-setting indicated in the previous section should be
correct for normal usage. The control is set correctly when
beverages are as cold as you like.
If you need to adjust the temperature, wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments and then recheck the temperature.
To make the refrigerator colder, adjust the control to the next
higher setting. To make the refrigerator less cold, adjust the
control to the next lower setting.
REFRIGERATOR FEATURES
Refrigerator Shelves
Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Store similar foods
together and adjust the shelves to fit different heights. This
reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and saves energy.
To Remove and Replace Shelves:
1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and out of the shelf brackets.
Remove the shelf.
2. Replace the shelf by inserting it into the shelf brackets.
NOTE: Be sure the shelf is level.
Lower Shelf
To Remove and Replace Lower Shelf:
1. Remove the shelf by lifting it up and pulling it forward.
2. Replace the shelf by lowering it on the guides.

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow
these steps to prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Unplug the refrigerator.
3. Clean, wipe, and dry it thoroughly.
4. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move.
5. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the back of
the refrigerator.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to
the “Installation Instructions” section for preparation instructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your refrigerator will not operate
■Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
■Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
■Is the Refrigerator Control turned to the OFF position? See
“Using the Control.”
The lights do not work
■Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
■Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See
“Changing the Light Bulb.”
The motor seems to run too much
■Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the
motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal outdoor
temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of
the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more
of the time.
■Has a large amount of food just been added to the
refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the
refrigerator. It is normal for the motor to run longer in order to
cool the refrigerator back down.
■Is the door opened often? Expect the motor to run longer
when this occurs. In order to conserve energy, try to get
everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep food
organized so it is easy to find, and close the door as soon as
the food is removed.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
See “Using the Control.”
■Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If
it will not shut all the way, see “The door will not close
completely” later in this section.
■Are the condenser coils dirty? This obstructs air transfer and
makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. See
“Cleaning.”
Temperature is too warm
■Is the door opened often? Be aware that the refrigerator will
warm when this occurs. In order to keep the refrigerator cool,
try to get everything you need out of the refrigerator at once,
keep food organized so it is easy to find, and close the door as
soon as the food is removed.
■Has a large amount of food just been added to the
refrigerator? Adding a large amount of food warms the
refrigerator. It can take several hours for the refrigerator to
return to the normal temperature.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
See “Using the Control.”
■Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not
install the refrigerator behind a cabinet door or block the base
grille.
There is interior moisture buildup
■Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, try to
get everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep
food organized so it is easy to find, and close the door as
soon as the food is removed. When the door is opened,
humidity from the room air enters the refrigerator. The more
often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up,
especially when the room itself is very humid.
■Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the
refrigerator when the air is humid.
■Is the food packaged correctly? Check that all food is
securely wrapped. Wipe off damp food containers before
placing in the refrigerator.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
See “Using the Control.”
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
