Installing it properly

1. Allow 4 inches (10.2 cm) of space be-

tween overhead cabinets and refrigerator
top.

2. Allow at least 3 inches (7.5 cm) between

back of cabinet and the wall.

3. Allow 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space on each

side of the refrigerator for proper air
circulation.

4. If the hinge side of the refrigerator is to be

against a wall, you might want to leave
extra space so the door can be opened
wider.

5. Level your refrigerator.

Leveling it

Keep the 2 bolts that keep the refrigerator in
the shipping crate. They are the front
leveling legs.
1. Screw these legs all the way into the bolt

holes in the bottom corners of the refrig-
erator.

2. Slide the refrigerator into place.
3. Lower the front legs just enough to lift the

cabinet front off the floor.

4. Adjust the legs to level the refrigerator.

Turn clockwise to LOWER.

Turn counterclockwise to RAISE.

5. Check with level.
