NOTES:
This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the
temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a
maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature
range for optimum performance, which reduces electricity
usage and provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C)
and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended that you do not install
the refrigerator near a heat source, such as an oven or
radiator.
Normal minimum cabinet cut-out width required for product
installation is 36" (91.44 cm). However, if the product is
placed against an extended wall and the ability to remove
the crisper pans is desired, an additional 18" (45.72 cm) of
cabinet width is required, so a total cabinet opening width
of 54" (137.16 cm) is recommended.
