Installation

Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for

shipment. Remove and discard shelf packing and tape.

Location

• Allow for a free flow of air through the front base

grille.

• Install the refrigerator where the room temperature

will not go below 55° F. With temperatures below

55° F, the refrigerator will not run frequently enough

to maintain proper temperature in the freezer.

• Allow a minimum

⁄2" clearance on the sides, top and

back for ease of installation. If refrigerator is placed

with the door hinge side against a wall, you may

want to allow additional space so the door can be

opened wider.

• Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or

hardwood floors so as not to mark or otherwise

damage the flooring. A piece of plywood, a rug or

other material should be used to protect the floor

while positioning the unit.

Leveling

To enhance its appearance and to maintain

performance, your refrigerator should be leveled after it

has been rolled into its final location.

• Adjust the leveling/lock screws beneath each front

corner at the base of the cabinet. Turn these

leveling/lock screws clockwise to raise a cabinet

corner and counterclockwise to lower a cabinet

corner.

Front Base Grille

The front base grille was packaged inside the

refrigerator for shipment and should be installed after

the refrigerator has been leveled.

To Install:

• Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two Phillips

head screws at the base of the refrigerator.

• Align the base grille to the screw holes. (The cut out

side on the base grille installs around the lower

hinge of the door.)

• Secure the base grille into place by reinstalling the

Phillips screws back into their original screw holes.

• If the floor is not level and it is necessary to raise the

rear of the cabinet, we suggest rolling the rear

wheels onto a piece of plywood or other shim

material.

Energy Saving Tips

•Locate the refrigerator away from heat producing

appliances such as the range or dishwasher, heat

vents and direct sunlight.

•Level the refrigerator and do not block ventilation

around the front base grille.

•Let hot dishes cool slightly before putting into the

refrigerator or freezer.

• Cover liquids.

•Keep the freezer full to near capacity so less cold air

will escape during door openings. When the freezer

is less than

⁄3 full, place milk cartons half full of

water in the freezer.

•Wipe moisture from the outside of containers before

placing them into the refrigerator.

•Avoid opening the doors too often.
