Installing it properly

1. Allow inch (1.25 cm) space on each side

and at the top of the refrigerator for ease of
installation.

2. If the hinge side of the refrigerator is to be

against a wall, you might want to leave extra
space so the door can be opened wider.

3. The refrigerator can be flush against the back

wall.
