bles such as gasoline.

sides of freezer and 2 inches (5 cm) at back.

during installation. If, for any reason, the hinges
need adjustment, see your authorized
Whirlpool dealer.
5. Do not cover the freezer with items such as
blankets, sheets, tablecloths, etc.

that the lid will seal properly. Use shim(s) to level if
needed.
