General Information To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a 1/2" (1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. Allow 1" (2.5 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave a 2-3/4" (7.0 cm) minimum space between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open. Overhead View Wall 1/2" (1.27 cm) Electrical Requirements Wall 2-3/4" (6.99 cm) Door Moving Unit • DO NOT transport the refrigerator on its side. If an upright position is not possible, lay the refrigerator on its back. Allow refrigerator to sit upright for approximately 30 minutes before plugging it in to assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the refrigerator in immediately may cause damage to internal parts. • Use an appliance dolly when moving refrigerator. ALWAYS truck refrigerator from its side or back - NOT from its front. • Cover outside finish of refrigerator during transport by wrapping cabinet in blankets or inserting padding between the refrigerator and dolly. • Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with straps or bungee cords. Thread straps through handles when possible. DO NOT overtighten. Overtightening restraints may dent or damage outside finish. Before you move your refrigerator to its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection. Recommended Grounding Method A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 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 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, turn the cooling OFF. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn cooling on. 12 General Information Water Supply Requirements A cold water supply with water pressure of between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber. Reverse Osmosis Water Supply IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa). If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa). If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa): • Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary. • Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after heavy usage. • If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber. 13
