3. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or
abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can
damage the surface of your appliance.

Your appliance is heavy. When moving the appliance for cleaning or
service, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the appliance straight
out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the appliance when trying
to move it, because floor damage can occur.
5. Clean Before Using:
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of
your appliance before using it. See cleaning instructions in Appliance
Care.

underside of the appl iance.
2. Screw these legs into the front holes on the bottom of the appliance. The
back of the appliance rests on two fixed supports. (Built-in models also
have rear level legs that can provide more pr ecise leveling).
3. Adjust t he front legs just enough to lift the cabinet up off the floor.

design and main function is to remove heat from packages and air space
inside the appliance. The heat is transferred to the room air, making the
outside of the applianc e feel w arm. (In some models the c ondens er that g ets
warm is just inside the side walls, making these walls warm to t he touch.)
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
• The more airflow provided around an appliance, the less energy it will use.
• If your appliance requires manual defrosting, keep ice build-up to less than 1/2".
• Keep doors open a minimum of time, and shut securely.
