recess where the top of the refrigerator is completely

covered, use dimensions from floor to top of hinge cap

to verify proper clearance.

Transporting Your Refrigerator

• NEVER transport refrigerator on its side. If an

upright position is not possible, lay refrigerator on its

back. Allow refrigerator to sit upright for

approximately 30 minutes before plugging it in to

assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the

internal parts.

• Use an appliance dolly when moving refrigerator.

ALWAYS truck refrigerator from its side or

back-NEVER from its front.

Protect outside finish of refrigerator during transport

by wrapping cabinet in blankets or inserting padding

between the refrigerator and dolly.
