These instructions were provided to aid

you in the installationof your refrigerator.

MB URINGTHEoPENiNG

A one-half inch (v;') of air space must be

provided for the back of the refrigerator.

When installing your refrigerator,

measure carefully.

Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e.

carpet, tile, wood floors, rugs) may make

your opening smaller than anticipated.

Some clearance may be gained by

using the leveling procedure under

How to Level Your Refrigerator.

IMPORTANT: If refrigerator is to be

installed into a recess where top of

refrigerator is completely covered, use

dimensions from floor to top of hinge

cap to verify proper clearance.

SELECTINGTHEBEST

Observe these points when choosing the

final location for your refrigerator:

DO NOT install refrigerator near

oven, radiator or other heat source. If

not possible, shield refrigerator with

cabinet material.

DO NOT install where temperature

falls below 55° F (13° C). Malfunction

may occur at this temperature.

Toassure proper door closure, follow

the leveling instructions in the

section, How to Level Your

Refrigerator.

Your new refrigerator is uniquely

designed with two fresh food doors.

Either door can be opened or closed

independently of one another.

There is a vertically-hinged section on

the left fresh food door calledthe

SmartSeal. When the left door isclosed,

the hinged section automatically forms a

seal between the two doors when both

doors are closed.

When the left door is opened, the

SmartSeal automatically folds inward so

that it is out of the way.

TRANSPORTINGYOUR

Follow these tips when moving the

refrigerator to final location:

NEVER transport refrigerator on its

side. If an upright position is not

possible, lay refrigerator on its back.

Allow refrigerator to sit upright for

approximately 30 minutes prior to

plugging refrigerator in to assure oil

returns to the compressor. Plugging

refrigerator in immediately may cause

damage to internal parts.

Use an appliance doilywhen moving

refrigerator.ALWAYS truck

refrigerator from its side-NEVER

from its front or back.

Protect outside finish of refrigerator

during transport by wrapping cabinet

in blankets or inserting padding

between the refrigerator and dolly.

Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with

straps or bungee cords. Thread

straps through handleswhen

possible. DO NOT overtighten. Over-

tightening restraints may dent or

damage outside finish.
