Before bringing the refrigerator into the home, be sure there is
adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigerator upright. See
“Tipping Radius” in the “Installation Requirements and Design
Specifications” section for more information.

If you do not have adequate ceiling height to stand the
refrigerator upright, the tipping radius can be reduced by
removing the top grille and side trims (see the following chart).

1. Grasp both ends of the top grille.

2. Push the top grille straight up, then pull straight out. Lay the

grille on a soft surface.

3. Remove the 6 screws attaching each cabinet side trim to the

refrigerator and remove the side trims.

4. Stand the refrigerator up. First, place the left bottom edge of

the refrigerator on the floor, stand the refrigerator upright and
then lower the right-hand side of the refrigerator to the floor.

5. Reassemble the trim and top grille after the dolly has been

removed from the refrigerator.

IMPORTANT:

The solid soffit must be within 1 in. (2.5 cm) maximum above
the refrigerator. If the solid soffit is higher than 1 in. (2.5 cm) or
one is not available, prevent the refrigerator from tipping
during use as shown.

It is recommended that board(s) be installed before the
refrigerator is installed.

Board(s) must be long enough to fully cover the width of the
compressor cover.

Locate the board(s) so the bottom surface(s) of the board(s)
is(are) 84 in. (213 cm) from the floor.

During installation, raise the refrigerator up so there is

¹⁄₄ in. (6.35 mm) maximum between the top of the refrigerator
and the bottom of the anti-tip board(s). Do not crush the
condenser cover when raising the rear leveling legs.
