Installing your refrigerator

These instructions were provided to aid

you in the installation of your

refrigerator.

Measuring the opening

A one-half inch (

⁄2") of air space must be

provided for the top and the back of the

refrigerator. When installing your

refrigerator, measure carefully.

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

How to Level Your Refrigerator

(page 10).

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.

Transporting your

refrigerator

Follow these tips when moving the

refrigerator to final location:

➢ NEVER transport refrigerator on its

side. If an upright position is not

possible, lay refrigerator on its back.

Allow refrigerator to sit upright for

approximately 30 minutes prior to

WARNING

How to clean your refrigerator

*Astainless steel cleaner has been included inside the refrigerator for your use. To purchase additional cleaner, please contact

Sears using the information on the back of your guide.

How to remove odors

from refrigerator

1. Remove all food.

2. Disconnect refrigerator.

3. Clean the following items–paying

special attention to crevices–using

the appropriate instructions in How to

Clean Your Refrigerator:

•Walls, floor and ceiling of cabinet

interior.

• Drawers, shelves and gaskets.

4. Wash and dry all bottles, containers

and jars. Discard spoiled or expired

items.

5. Wrap or store odor-causing foods in

tightly-sealed containers to prevent

reoccurring odors.

6. Connect power to refrigerator and

return food.

7. After 24 hours, check if odor has

been eliminated.

If odor is still present...

1. Remove drawers and place on top

shelf of refrigerator.

2. Pack refrigerator and freezer

sections–including doors–with

crumpled sheets of black and white

newspaper.

3. Place charcoal briquettes randomly

on crumpled newspaper in both

freezer and refrigerator

compartments.

4. Close doors and let stand 24–48 hours.

5. Repeat steps 5 through 7 above.

If odor was not eliminated, contact

Sears Service Center. Refer to back of

manual for phone number.

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

refrigerator at one time. This

overloads compartments and slows

rate of cooling.

➢ Do not use aluminum foil, wax paper,

or paper toweling as shelf liners. This

decreases air flow and causes

refrigerator to run less efficiently.

➢ A freezer that is

⁄3 full runs most

efficiently.

➢ 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 section in Use and Care

Guide on temperature controls for

recommended control settings.

➢ Clean door gaskets every three

months according to Use and Care

Guide instructions. This will assure

that door seals properly and

refrigerator runs efficiently.

➢ Take time to organize items in

refrigerator to reduce time that door

is open.

➢ Be sure your doors are closing

securely by leveling refrigerator as

instructed in your Use and Care

Guide.

➢ Clean condenser coils off as

indicated in the Use and Care Guide

every 3 months. This will increase

energy efficiency and cooling

performance.

To avoid personal injury or property

damage, observe the following:

➢ Allow light bulb to cool.

➢ Wear gloves when replacing light

bulb.

CAUTION

To avoid electrical shock which can

cause severe personal injury or

death, disconnect power to

refrigerator before replacing light

bulb. After replacing light bulb,

connect power.

WARNING
