VENTING

Sufficient ventilation (airflow) over the rear mounted condenser of the refrigerator is necessary for the refrigerator to operate correctly.

NOTE The fan will operate only when the ambient temperature is higher than approximately 95° F.

CAUTION : Do not remove the bottom legs from the refrigerator cabinet. The legs supply space under the refrigerator that is neces­sary for correct ventilation.

If you do not make sure that the ventilation is correct, a shortened refrigerator life expectancy, poor refrigeration, continuous operation, accelerated battery discharge and a void warranty will result.
