Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping. Location Requirements WARNING Explosion Hazard Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliance. Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor, household use only. To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow 1/2" (1.25 cm) of space on each side. Allow 1 1/2" (3.81 cm) of space between overhead cabinets and refrigerator top. Allow at least 1" (2.54 cm) between back of cabinet and the wall. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. 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. 5
