This Use & Care Guide provides general installation and operating instructions for your model. We recommend using a service or kitchen contracting professional to install your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as

instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important

first steps.

Installation

Do Not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.

Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation

is essential for the proper operation of your refrigerator.

• Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation, and

plumbing and electrical connections:

Sides & Top 3/8 inch (9.5 ram)

Back 1 inch (25,4 ram)
