Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the refrigerator. Rub a small

amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your ﬁngers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

NOTE: Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners

to remove tape or gule, These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.

Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

Important: Do not remove the white foam air return insert that is located behind the control

panel on the ceiling of the refrigerator(on some models). The insert is part of the refrigerator

and not part of the packing material. If the insert is removed, ice may migrate down from the

freezer and cause icicles to form.

Location Requirements

Important: This refrigerator is designed for indoor household use only.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for 2”(5.08 cm) of space on each side

and at the top. Allow for 2”(5.08 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has

an icemaker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your

refrigerator next to a ﬁxed wall, leave a 2”(5.08 cm) minimun space on the hinge side (some

models require more) to allow the door to swing open.

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

minimum of 39 F (4 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. Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or

hardwood floors so as not to mark or otherwise damage the flooring. A piece of plywood, a rug

or other material should be used to protect the floor while positioning the unit.

Electrical Requirements

Before you move your refrigerator into its ﬁnal location, it is important to make sure you have

the proper electrical connection.

Recommended grounding Method.

A 115 volt, 60Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is

recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided.

Use an outlet that can not be turned oﬀ by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation or cleaning, disconnect the refrigerator from

the electrical source. When you are ﬁnished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source.

After you remove all of the package materials, clean the inside of your refrigerator before

using it.

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or cover with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers

may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered

glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves

and cover are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping.

When Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service, be sure to

cover the ﬂoor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid ﬂoor damage. Always pull the

refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the refrigerator when trying

to move it, as ﬂoor damage could occur.
