First Steps
3" AIR SPACE
Clearance
I Proper air circulation and leveling will
ensure efficient operation,
/
Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important first steps:
Location
• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet DO NOT use an
extension cord or an adapter plug
• if possible, place the refrigerator out of direct sunlight and away from the
range, dishwasher or other heat sources
• The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that is level and strong enough
to support a fully loaded refrigerator,
° Consider water supply availability for models equipped with an automatic
ice maker
Installation
° Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 60°F
(15°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C) Thecompressor will not be able to maintain
proper temperatures
* Ailow space around the unit for good air circulation, Leave a 1inch (25 ram)
space behind and a 3 inch (75 mm) space above the refrigerator for adequate
circulation
, In a recessed installation, allow an extra 1/2 inch (t0-15 ram) on each side
for ease of installation.
o Forbest circulation, elevate the unit 1 inch (25 ram) from the floor, especially
if the floor is carpeted
Door Opening"
The doors should open to allow easy accessto a counter when removing food
o Do not position the refrigerator soyou have to walk around the refrigerator
doors
° Reverse the doors if necessary See "Reversible Door instructions "

Leveling
All four corners of refrigerator must rest firmly on a solid floor Some models are
equipped with adjustable screw-type levelers Others are equpped with rollers tf
your refrigerator did not come with rollers, they can be purchased from your dealer
• To adjust screw-type levelers (some models): Tip cabinet back slightly, and
raise and lower the adjusting bolts as needed,
, To adjust the front rollers (some models): Use a screwdriver, 3/8" socket
wrench, or nutdriver to adjust rollers asshown,
RAISE THE FRONT of cabinet enough so doors wilt close freely when opened
halfway Levelcabinet sideto side
Cleaning
• Wash the inside, all removable parts and the outside with mild detergent and
warm water Wipe dry DO NOT USE HARSH CLEANERS ON THESE
SURFACES.
° Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the
appliance surface, when removing adhesive labels Any gtue feft from the
tape or energy label can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild
detergent, or, touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed
• DO NOT REMOVETHE SERIALPLATE
Sunken bolt (some models)
Energy Saving Ideas
o Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and
away from heating ducts or registers Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-
producing appliances such asa range, oven or dishwasher, If this is not possible,
asection of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances
will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently
o Levelthe refrigerator so the doors close tightly°
• Referto this Owner's Guide for the suggested refrigerator settings
o Periodic cleaning of the condenser will hetp the refrigerator run more efficiently
See Outside in the "Care and Cleaning" section
° Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents Doing so causes the
refrigerator to run longer and use more energy Shelvesshould not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling Liners interfere with cold air
circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food
spoilage
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator This
cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit
o Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible

Automatic Ice Maker
If your refrigerator hasan automatic ice maker, it will provide a continuous supply
of ice for normal use The automatic ice maker is an optional accessorywhich may
be installed in most models at any time Call your local dealer for installation
After the plumbing connections havebeen completed, the water supply valve must
be opened Placethe ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as
possible Lower the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position Because of new
plumbing connections, the first production of ice cubes may be discolored or have
an odd flavor Throw the iceaway until the cubes made arefree of discoloration and
taste Remember, water quality determines your ice quality It is best to connect
the ice maker to water that is not soft Softening chemicals can damage the ice
maker tfthe icemaker isconnected to soft water, ensure the softener ismaintained
and working properly
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up"
or OFFposition The icemaker turns off automatically when the ice container isfull
If your model hasan adjustable freezer shelf, place the shelf so the wire signal arm
will hit the icewhen the ice container isfull
