NOTE:

As the door gets pressed in during shipping,

after reversing the door, the gasket may have to be
reset. This is done to prevent the cool refrigerated
air from escaping. If there is a gap between the door
gasket and the cabinet, set the gasket by gently pulling
it out to seal the gap.

IMPORTANT:

This refrigerator is designed for

freestanding installation only. It should not be recessed or
built-in an enclosed cabinet. To ensure your refrigerator
works at optimum efficiency, you should install it in
