LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Floor must support the refrigerator weight, more than 600 lbs (272 kg), door
panels, and contents of the refrigerator.
Each refrigerator needs to be installed in a separate cabinet frame.
NOTE: This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the
temperature ranges from a minimum of 13°C (55°F) to a maximum of 43°C (110°F).
The preferred room temperature range for optimum performance, which reduces
electricity usage and provides superior cooling, is between 15°C (60°F) and
32°C (90°F). It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near a
heat source, such as an oven or radiator.
