INSTALLATION
These instructions were provided to aid
you in the installation of your refrigerator.
Measuring the opening
This refrigerator was designed to fit a 69"
tall opening to allow for proper ventilation,
leveling and door adjustments.
Please also take into account, when
measuring space for your unit, that some
models require a certain amount of clear-
ance around it to allow for proper air flow.
Proper air flow is key to keeping your unit
running at optimum efficiency. To deter-
mine measurements, please reference
the table below.
Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet,
tile, wood floors, rugs) may make your
opening smaller than anticipated.
Some clearance may be gained by using
the leveling procedure under Leveling
Your Refrigerator.
Selecting the best
location
Observe these points when choosing the
final location for your refrigerator:
DO NOT install refrigerator near oven,
radiator or other heat source. If not
possible, shield refrigerator with
cabinet material.
DO NOT install where temperature
falls below 55° F (13° C). Malfunction
may occur at this temperature.
To assure proper door closure, follow
the leveling instructions in the section,
Leveling Your Refrigerator.
Transporting your
refrigerator
Follow these tips when moving the refrig-
erator to final location:
NEVER transport refrigerator on its
side. If an upright position is not possi-
ble, lay refrigerator on its back. Allow
refrigerator to sit upright for approxi-
mately 30 minutes prior to plugging
refrigerator in to assure oil returns to
the compressor. Plugging refrigerator
in immediately may cause damage to
internal parts.
Use an appliance dolly when moving
refrigerator. ALWAYS truck refrigera-
tor from its side or back–NEVER from
its front.
Protect outside finish of refrigerator
during transport by wrapping cabinet
in blankets or inserting padding
between the refrigerator and dolly.
Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with
straps or bungee cords. Thread straps
through handles when possible. DO
NOT overtighten. Overtightening
restraints may dent or damage outside
finish.
IMPORTANT: If refrigerator is to be
installed into a recess where top of
refrigerator is completely covered, use
dimensions from floor to top of hinge cap
to verify proper clearance.

Removing odors from
refrigerator
Remove all food.
Disconnect refrigerator.
Clean the following items using the
appropriate instructions in the Care
and Cleaning table.
–Walls, floor and ceiling of cabinet
interior
Drawers, shelves and gaskets
according to the instructions in this
section.

solution into crevices using a plas-
tic bristle brush.
Let stand for 5 minutes.
Rinse surfaces with warm water.
Dry surfaces with a soft, clean

Energy saving ideas
Avoid overcrowding refrigerator
shelves. This reduces effectivity of air
circulation around food and causes
refrigerator to run longer.
Avoid adding too much warm food to
unit at one time. This overloads com-
partments and slows rate of cooling.
Do not use aluminum foil, wax paper,
or paper toweling as shelf liners. This
decreases air flow and causes unit to
run less efficiently.
A freezer that is
2
3 full runs most effi-
ciently.
Locate refrigerator in coolest part of
room. Avoid areas of direct sunlight, or
near heating ducts, registers or other
heat producing appliances. If this is
not possible, isolate exterior by using
a section of cabinet or an added layer
of insulation.
Refer to Owner's Manual section on
temperature controls for recommend-
ed control settings.
Clean door gaskets every three
months according to Owner's Manual
cleaning instructions. This will assure
that door seals properly and unit runs
efficiently.
Take time to organize items in refriger-
ator to reduce time that door is open.
Be sure your doors are closing
securely by leveling unit as instructed
in this Owner's Manual (see page 4).
Clean condenser coils as indicated in
the Owner's Manual every 3 months.
This will increase energy efficiency
and cooling performance.
Wash and dry all bottles, containers
and jars. Discard spoiled or expired
items.
Wrap or store odor-causing foods in
tightly sealed containers to prevent
reoccurring odors.
Connect power to refrigerator and
return food to unit.
After 24 hours, check if odor has been
eliminated.
If odor is still present:
Remove drawers and place on top
shelf of refrigerator.
Pack refrigerator and freezer sections
– including doors – with crumpled
sheets of black and white newspaper.
Place charcoal briquettes randomly on
crumpled newspaper in both freezer
and refrigerator compartments.
Close doors and let stand 24-48
hours.
