It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near ƒ
an oven, radiator, or other heat source.
Do not install in a location where the temperature will fall ƒ
below 55°F (13°C).
Floor must support the refrigerator weight, more than 600 lbs ƒ
(272 kg), door panels and contents of the refrigerator.
Ceiling height must allow for side tipping radius. See ƒ Tipping
