For best performance at high ambient temperatures, there must be free air circulation over the cooling unit
at the rear of the refrigerator.
Ensure that there is a free air space above the refrigerator and that the flue (chimney) on top of the cabinet
is not covered in any way. Do not place the refrigerator in a space where air circulation is restricted. Follow
“clearance” instructions.
This free-standing refrigerator requires accessibility to the back for servicing the gas equipment, which
can be obtained by using a certified Flexible Metal Connector to allow the refrigerator to be withdrawn
without disrupting the gas supply. Where a flexible metal connector is used, it must comply with local
authorities and in Canada with the provisions of the current Standard CAN 1- 6.10, Metal Connectors for Gas
Appliances. However, if the Local Authorities require a rigid gas supply connector, the refrigerator should
be located with sucient space at the back for servicing or, if located against a wall a removable panel of
a minimum size of 16” x 20” should be provided in the wall to allow access to the rear of the refrigerator. If
you purchased a CM (CO Monitor model) you must follow instructions that were included with your CO
HEAT SHIELD
The heat shield must be installed before operating the appliance. This is a CSA
requirement.
Unwrap the heat shield (located inside the box attached to the appliance).
Mount heat shield with the screws (supplied) to the right side of the fridge.
CLEARANCES
Minimum clearances to combustible materials are:
Top – 6”
Sides – 2”
Rear – 1” as shown in Figures. 1, 2 & 3.
Note: DO NOT install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpeting must be removed or protected by
a metal or wood panel beneath the appliance, which extends at least the full width and depth of the
appliance.
