Location Requirements

The refrigerator can be recessed in an opening between cabinets
or installed at the end of a cabinet run using a side panel to
enclose the refrigerator.
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.
IMPORTANT:
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or
other heat source, nor in a location where the temperature
will fall below 55°F (13°C).
Floor must support the refrigerator weight, more than
600 lbs. (272 kg), door panels and contents of the
refrigerator.
Ceiling height must allow for side or front tipping radius.
See "Tipping Radius."
Location should permit doors to open fully. See "Door
Swing Dimensions."

Dimensions."
Opening Dimensions
The solid soffit must be within 1 in. (2.5 cm) maximum above
the refrigerator. If the solid soffit is higher than 1 in. (2.5 cm) or
one is not available, then the refrigerator must be braced to
prevent tipping during use.
If the anti-tip boards are needed, they must be attached to
the rear wall studs 80 in. to 90 in. (203 - 229 cm) above the
floor. See "Install Anti-Tip Boards" for more information.
