Location Requirements
■ If the floor of the opening is not level with the kitchen floor,
shim the opening to make it level with the kitchen floor.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a
¹/₄" (6.35 mm) space on each side and at the top. When installing
your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2¹⁄₂" (6.35 cm)
minimum clearance on the hinge side to allow for the door to
swing open.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C). For
best performance, do not install the refrigerator behind a cabinet
door or block the base grille.
Opening Dimensions
■ Height dimensions are shown with the leveling legs extended
to the minimum height.
NOTE: When leveling legs are fully extended, add ⁵⁄₈" (1.6 cm)
to the height dimensions. See “Product Dimensions.”

electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet
that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension
cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
