Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator

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.
CAUTION
Risk of Fire or Explosion due to puncture of refrigerant
tubing. Flammable refrigerant used. Handle with care
when moving refrigerator to avoid either damaging the
refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
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 (250 volts, 16 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/366CM.
