Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before
powering on the refrigerator.
Leveling Your Refrigerator
• Your refrigerator has two leveling legs which are located in the front bottom
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 counterclockwise to raise your
refrigerator or by turning them clockwise to lower your refrigerator. The
refrigerator door will close easier when the leveling legs are extended.
Proper Air Circulation
• To ensure 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" (19mm)
Top....................2" (50mm)
Back..................2" (50mm)
WARNING: ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT - SHOCK HAZARD
Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (120 volts, 15 amps outlet) with proper
grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong
in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since
it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock
hazard.
WARNING: USE OF EXTENSION CORDS- POTENTIAL SAFETY
HAZARD
Use of Extension Cords
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will
accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. DO NOT USE EXTENSION
CORD LONGER THAN 12 FT.
