NOTE: This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the

temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum

of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range for

optimum performance, which reduces electricity usage and

provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C).

It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near a

heat source, such as an oven or radiator.
