REFRIGERATOR LOCATION
Do not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will go below 60°F. (16°C.) because it
will not run often enough to maintain proper
temperatures. Do install it on a floor strong enough to support
it fully loaded.
To keep energy costs down, avoid locating the
refrigerator next to the range or a heating vent.
ROLLERS
(on some models)
The rollers have 3 purposes:
1. Rollers can be adjusted so the door closes easily
when opened about halfway. (Raise the front about
3/4
″
[19 mm] from the floor.)
2. Rollers should be adjusted so the refrigerator is
firmly positioned on the floor and does not wobble.
3. Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away
from the wall for cleaning.
To adjust the rollers:
1. Remove the base
grille by grasping the
bottom of the grille
and pulling it out.
2. Turn the two front roller
adjusting screws clockwise
to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it.
3. To replace the base
grille, line up the
clips on the back of
the grille with the
openings in the base
plate and push the
grille forward until
it snaps into place.
