Do not install this refrigerator-freezer next to any
other refrigerator. Installing this refrigerator-freezer
next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause
condensation or cause damage to the appliance.
Electrical Requirement
If codes require a separate grounding circuit to be
used, have a qualified electrician install the circuit.
Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are not sure
the appliance is properly grounded. Do not
have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
• Electricallygroundappliance.
• Donotuseanextensioncord.
• Failuretofollowtheseinstructions
could result in fire or electric shock.
To protect the appliance from possible
damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to
1 hour in place before turning the electricity
on. This allows the refrigerant and system
lubrication to reach equilibrium.
Customer’s Responsibility
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp fused electrical supply is
required. We recommend using a dedicated circuit
for this appliance to prevent electrical overload.
Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances when installing the receptacle.
Blocking for Safety
The anti tipping brackets must be installed to
prevent the unit from tipping after it is installed.
Refer to Blocking for Safety.
Unit Venting
Do not restrict the air flow. Air flow must be
provided for the unit to operate.

HC/HCB 20 appliances do not require any
ventilation openings in the cabinet. The required
airflow is directed through the toe kick area.
Door swing clearence - Figure 2
Please allow for door swing clearance at locations
next to a wall.
The illustrated measurement is without mounted
front panels. Be sure to add your panel thickness
and handle depth to this measurement in order to
avoid interferences.

It is important to use the provided cover grille for
the ventilation opening. This opening must not be
covered with a cabinet base.

The position of the electri-
cal outlet is possible within
the grey shaded areas or
above the appliance.

IMPORTANT
Frameless/faceframe cabinet
Depth B
For appliance with panel to be
flush, adjacent cabinetry depth
must equal appliance depth (24")
plus panel thickness (5/8" - 3/4").
Water line opening
Water supply line
IMPORTANT
For 24" cabinets, the water line opening must be in the
location as shown in Figure 4.
With cabinets deeper than 24", there is room to fit the
pipe behind the appliance and the wall so there are no
requirements for the water line lead out position.
Figure 4
IMPORTANT
The free length of the water supply line must be at least
31-1/2" (800 mm) when the tube comes out of the pre-
Appliance and panels sit fully within the opening
and are flush with what could be its own box,
between two pantry cabinets or decorative
columns, etc. This is the most common installation
scenario.
You can order stainless steel panels for inset installation style.
