POSITIONING THE APPLIANCE
The area in which the fridge is to be installed must be relatively cool, dry, and suitably ventilated.
The area must be protected against any inclement weather (rain, snow) and excessive surface dust.
To ensure proper function, the appliance must be placed on a at, rm, and stable surface resting
level on all four supports. The oor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded cabinet. Use
wood or metal shims to level the fridge if necessary. Do not place the appliance in direct sunlight
or near sources of heat, such as a stove or heater, as this can increase electrical consumption. Ex-
treme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance to perform improperly.
Do not place the fridge close to heat sources (heater, stove, boiler, chimney, etc.), and avoid pro-
longed exposure to direct sunlight. This appliance uses the exterior walls to transfer heat from the
inside of the cabinet. Ensure that there is adequate space between the fridge and neighboring
walls or large objects. A minimum spacing of 3 inches (7.6 cm) is highly recommended. This will
provide sufcient airow around the appliance resulting in more efcient operation and longer ap-
pliance lifetime. Always keep the air vent openings of the compressor housing cover free from dust
and obstructions. This appliance is intended for free-standing installation only and is not intended
to be built into a cabinet or counter.
