Instillation Requirements (continued)-IMPORTANT... Please Read Carefully
Use of Adapter Plug
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against use of an adapter
plug. However, if you still elect to use
an adapter, where local codes permiL
a TEMPORARY CONNECTION
may be made to a properly grounded
two-prong wall outlet by use of a
UL listed adapter (Fig. 2) available
at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter nmst
be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching an adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet cover
screw does not ground appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and wall outlet is
grounded through house wiring.
You should have circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to nrake sure
the outlet is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is veO' likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT [SE the
appliance until a proper ground
has again been established.
Use of _nsion Cords
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly reconmlend against the
use of an extension cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessm T that
it be a UL listed 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord having
a grounding type plug and outlet
and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 15 amperes 0ninimum) and
120 volts.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet--
(115 volt, 60 Hertz, or 100 volt, 50
Hertz, single phase AC). This is
recommended for best perfornrance
and to prevent overloading house
wiring circuits, which could cause a
fire hazard from overheating wires.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 60°F.
because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do instill it on a floor strong
enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator.

Clearances
Allow the following clearances
for ease of installation, proper
air circulation and plumbing and
electrical connections:
Sides ..................... _"
Top ...................... 0"
Back ...................... 1"
Allow following door clearances:
Countermaker Side ......... 3_"
Freezer Side .............. 1_"
Water Supply to Icemaker
You will need to connect your
icemaker to a cold water line. A
water supply kit containing copper
tubing, shutoff valve, fittings and
instluctions is available at extra
cost from your dealer. There
should be sufficient tubing tbr the
icemaker from the cold water supply
to allow moving the refrigerator out
from the wall several feet
(approximately 8 feet of 1/4"
copper robing in three 10-inch
diameter coils.)
Rollers
Adjustable rollers behind the base
grille enable you to move the
refrigerator away from the wall for
cleaning. These rollers should be
set so the refrigerator rests firmly
on the floor. To assure that the
doors will close automatically from
a halt\ray-open position, there is a
built-in tilt from the front to the
back of the cabinet. Side-by-side
refrigerators also have specially
designed door hinges that lift both
doors slightly when opened,
allowing the force of gravity to
help close them securely.
PULLOUT
To adjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
Turn roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use
adjustable wrench (3/8" hex head
bolt) or pliers.
When adjusting front milers *'orproper
door closure, we recomnrend that the
bottonr front edge of the cabinet be
approximately 3/4" from the floor.
To replace base grille, align prongs
on back of grille with clamps in
cabinet and-push folavard until the
grille snaps into place.
