Location Requirements

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor household use only.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) of
space on each side and at the top. Allow for 1" (2.54 cm) of space behind
the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at
the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator
next to a fixed wall, leave a 2" (5.08 cm) minimum space on each side
(depending on your model) to allow the doors to swing open.

NOTES:
This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the
temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum
of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range for optimum
performance, which reduces electricity usage and provides superior
cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended
that you do not install the refrigerator near a heat source, such as an
oven or radiator.
Normal minimum cabinet cut-out width required for product
installation is 36" (91.44 cm). However, if the product is placed against
an extended wall and the ability to remove the crisper pans is desired,
an additional 18" (45.72 cm) of cabinet width is required, so a total
cabinet opening width of 54" (137.16 cm) is recommended.

Electrical Requirements

WARNING
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.
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 or cleaning, or removing
a light bulb, turn cooling off or turn the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or
Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF, and then disconnect the
refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect
the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn cooling on or reset the
control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending on the
model) to the desired setting. See "Using the Controls" in the User
Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care Guide.

Water Supply Requirements

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and
follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Flat-blade screwdriver
⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end or
two adjustable wrenches
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm)
saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing. Before purchasing,
make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces
water flow and clogs more easily.
IMPORTANT:
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing only in
areas where the household temperatures will remain above freezing.
