INSTALLATION

Choosing the Proper Location

Select a place where a water supply can be easily con-

nected for the automatic icemaker.

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own

individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated

for 240 Volts, 50 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 or 20

amperes. This provides the best performance and

also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which

could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. It is

recommended that a separate circuit serving only this

appliance be provided.

Ambient Temperature

Install this appliance in an area where the temperature is

between 13°C and 43°C. If the temperature around the ap-

pliance is too low or high, cooling ability may be adversely

affected. Do not store the refrigerator in Direct Sunlight or

sheltered outdoor areas.

Unpacking Your Refrigerator

INSTALLATION

WARNING

Use two or more people to move and install the

refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in back or

other injury.

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrig-

erator for cleaning or service, be sure to protect

the floor. The refrigerator has rollers. Wind in the

leveling feet and pull the refrigerator straight out

when moving it. Do not wiggle or walk the refrig-

erator when trying to move it, as floor damage

could occur.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from the refrigerator. Failure to do

so can result in fire, explosion, or death.

Remove tape and any temporary labels from your refrigerator

before using. Do not remove any warning-type labels, the model

and serial number label, or the Tech Sheet that is located under

the front of the refrigerator, behind the base grille.

To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with

your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be easily removed

by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive

with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids,

or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can

damage the surface of your refrigerator.

Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping position. Please

reinstall shelves according to your individual storage needs.

Flooring

To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be leveled and

installed on a solidly constructed floor. If required, adjust

the front leveling legs to compensate for unevenness of the

floor. The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid

in door closing. Leveling legs can be turned easily by tipping

the cabinet slightly. Turn the leveling legs to the left to raise

the unit or to the right to lower it. (See Leveling and door

AlIgnment.)

N O T E

Installing on carpeting, soft tile surfaces, a platform

or weakly supported structure is not recommended.

N O T E

The water pressure must be between 150kpa to 500kpa

on models without a water filter, and 200kpa ~ 500kpa on

models with a water filter when connecting to the refrig-

erators connection point. If in doubt, contact a plumber

to check and install a water pressure reduction valve if

necessary.

Measuring the Clearances

Too small of a distance from adjacent items may result in

lowered freezing capability and increased electricity con-

sumption charges. Allow at least 24 inches (61 cm) in front

of the refrigerator to open the doors and at least 2 inches

(5.08 cm) between the back of the refrigerator and the wall.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not install the

refrigerator in a wet or damp area.
