Excessive
Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result
in back or other
injury.
Remove the Packaging
•
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.
•
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 refrigerator.
For
more information
see "Refrigerator
Safety."
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.
Clean
Before
Using
After you remove all of the packaging
materials,
clean the inside
of your refrigerator
before using it. See the cleaning
instructions
in "Refrigerator
Care."
important
information
to know
about
glass
shelves
and
covets:
Do not clean glass shelves
or covers
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 covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing
them to avoid
dropping.
Explosion
Hazard
Keep
flammable
materials
and vapors,
such
as
gasoline,
away from
refrigerator.
Failure
to do so can
result
in
death,
explosion,
or fire.
To ensure proper ventilation
for your refrigerator,
allow for 1/2"
(1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing
your
refrigerator
next to a fixed wall, leave 2" (5.08 cm) minimum
on
each side (depending
on your model) to allow for the door to
swing open.
If your refrigerator
has an ice maker, allow extra
space at the back for the water
line connections.

NOTES:
•
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).
•
Normal
minimum
cabinet
cut-out
width required
for product
installation
is 36" (91.44 cm). However,
if the product
is
placed
against an extended
wall and the ability to remove the
crisper
pans is desired,
an additional
18" (45.72 cm) of
cabinet
width
is required,
so a total cabinet
opening width
of
54" (137.16
cm)is
recommended.
