Appliance Placement
Leave a one (1) inch space on all sides and the back of the
cabinet for ease of installation, proper air circulation and
electrical connections. DO NOT block the front grill on
the lower front of your appliance. Sufficient air circulation
is essential for the proper operation of your appliance.
Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. For
the most efficient operation, the appliance should be located
where surrounding temperatures will not drop below 40°F
(5°C) or exceed 110°F (43°C). Additional compressor heaters
are not recommended.
Insulation
The insulated space of this cabinet is sealed to
maintain peak efficiency. Holes drilled in the cabinet
may destroy that seal and damage electrical wiring
located in the insulated space.
DAMAGED ELECTRICAL WIRING OR WET
INSULATION CAUSED BY DRILLING WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY.
