Setting up your Refrigerator
10_ Setting Up
First thing! Make sure that you can easily move your Refrigerator to its final location by measuring doorways
(both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc.
The following chart details the exact height and depth of Samsung Refrigerator.
FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a
level surface of hard material that is the same height as the
rest of the flooring. This surface should be strong enough
to support a fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately
223lbs(106kg). To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a
large section of the cardboard carton and place under
the refrigerator where you are working. When moving the
refrigerator, be sure to pull it straight out and return it to
position by pushing it straight in.
