The fi gure shows the minimum •
required space for installing
the refrigerator.
The amount of space around
the refrigerator affects
the amount of power
consumption.
Insuffi cient spacing will •
decrease cooling effi ciency
and increase energy
consumption.
This may reduce the life of the
unit and void warranty.
If using the refrigerator in the smaller space dimension •
than the below fi gure, it may cause the temperature
rise in the unit, loud noise and failure.
The space between the rear of the refrigerator and the •
