• Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing. This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
•Do not install the Refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50ºF (10ºC).
•Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become wet.
FLOORING
CAUTION For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a level surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of the flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately 660lbs(299kg). Protect the finish of the flooring. Cut a large section of the cardboard carton and place under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving, be sure to pull the unit straight out and push back in straight.
