Energy-Saving
Tips
•
Do not place your refrigerator
next to a heating vent, a range or in direct
sunlight.
•
Keep the door closed as much as possible,
especially
in hot, humid weather.
•
Cover foods to reduce moisture
buildup inside the appliance.
Installation
This refrigerator
is designed
to be either free-standing
or built-in.
It has a fan at
the bottom
of the
unit to direct
compressor-generated
heat
away
from
the
compressor
and through
vents in the back of the unit. The airflow from the vents
at the back of the system must be unimpeded.
Allow a minimum clearance
of 4" at
the back of the unit to ensure
proper air circulation.
The adjacent
cabinets
and
counter
top can be built around the unit as long as no top trim or counter
top is
installed
lower than the top of the upper door hinge. For built-in operation,
once
the unit is positioned,
the leveling
legs should
be turned to level the refrigerator.
Installation
should
be such
that the
cabinet
can
be moved
for servicing
if
necessary.
If you wish the unit to be mobile, the four supplied
rolling casters
can be attached
to the bottom of the unit.
These
casters
can be locked
into place when the
refrigerator
is in the desired location.
Note: The unit can be free-standing
with either the leveling
legs or the
rolling casters.
The door handle is connected
to the left edge of the door with four screws.
To reverse
the door
opening,
use a Phillips-head
screwdriver
to remove
the
handle from the left edge of the door, and then screw it onto the right.
It will be
necessary
to switch the locations
of the upper and lower door hinges. To do this,
follow these steps:
1. Remove
the screw on top of the refrigerator
that holds the triangular
hinge cover, using a Phillips screwdriver.
,
Remove the two hex nuts holding the upper hinge bracket to the top of
the refrigerator,
using an adjustable
wrench or a 5/16" hex socket driver.
Lift off the bracket,
being careful not to lose the small black gasket
on
the hinge pin.
3.
Lift the
door
off the
lower
hinge
bracket
and
tilt the
refrigerator
backwards.
