Grounding Method
Pick the Right Place.
Save steps by putting your refrigerator near the sink and next to a
countertop, it should not be near a stove, radiator, water heater or
any source of heat, .including direct sunlight.
You can install it flush against the wall in back. Leave ' 2 inch
(1,3 cm) clearance against cabinets on each side for ease of instal­
lation, Do you want it in a corner? Leave some room on the wall side
if you want the doors to open wider.
Planning to add the automatic ice maker? Will the refrigerator be
near a cold water pipe'?’ Some people run the water line through the
floor to the basement. Others run if behind the cabinets to the pipes
under the sink
Make Sure It’s Level.
Your refrigerator is on rollers: the hwo front ones are adjustable tor
leveling.
Remove the base grill to uncover the leveling screws. With a
screwdriver, turn each screw to the right to raise the front Turn them
to the left to lower the front. (If you have someone tilt the top of the
refrigerator back while turning, it will be easier)
Keep adjusting one or the other until the refrigerator won’t rock.
Then raise or lower both by the some number of turns until the refrig­
erator is level (use o level to check this). If you don't hove
a level, the
refrigerator will be about right when you con open the refrigerator
door port way and it will stay where you put it.
Peel Off the Labels.
Remove the Consumer Buy Guide label and other inside labels
before using the refrigerator. Any glue left con be token oft with
rubbing alcohol.
Do not remove the Tech Sheet tastened behind the base grill.
