when installing, please allow these minimum clearances to
ensure the best operation and proper ventilation: 1/4” on both
sides, 5/8” at the rear and 1/16” at the top. Be sure that
airflow at the top of the appliance is not blocked. If the
appliance is going to be placed against a wall, if possible
leave extra space on the hinge side so the doors can open
wider than their width (to make it easier to remove shelves
and storage bins).

to level the appliance. The rear side of the applianc e is fitted
with wheels (certain models only) facilitating the positioni ng

cabinet or other appiance. Be sure to leave enough space for
the opening of the door, to avoid damage to the appliance or
