BEFORE USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Before Using Your

Refrigerator

It is important to prepare your refrigerator for use. This section tells you how to clean it,

connect it to a power source, install it and level it.

Cleaning it

Removing packaging materials

Remove tape and any inside labels (except

the model and serial number label) before

using the refrigerator.

To remove any remaining glue:
• Rub briskly with thumb to make a ball, then

remove.

OR
• Soak area with liquid hand-dishwashing

detergent before removing glue as
described above. Do not use sharp
instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids or abrasive cleaners. These can
damage the material. See “Important
Safety Instructions” on page 3.

NOTE: Do not remove any permanent
instruction labels inside your refrigerator. Do
not remove the Tech Sheet fastened under

the refrigerator at the front.

Cleaning it before use

After removing all packaging materials,
clean your refrigerator before using it, if

necessary. See cleaning instructions on
pages 20-21.
