The installation must allow for clearances to adjacent walls or
cabinets. These refrigerators are equipped with a 2-position
door stop. The factory-set 130° door swing can be adjusted to
90° if clearance to adjacent cabinets or walls is restricted.
Space is the first consideration when planning the installation.
The cutout depth must be 24"
The refrigerator will project forward, slightly beyond adjacent
cabinetry, depending on your installation.

Electrical
28-5/8"
A 115V, 60Hz., 15 or 20 amp power supply is required. An
individual properly grounded branch circuit or circuit breaker
is recommended. Install a properly grounded 3-prong electrical
receptacle recessed into the back wall. Electrical must be
located on rear wall as shown.
4" Min.
to Wall
Allow minimum clearances for freezer door and fresh food
door for a full 130° door swing and to allow for pan removal.
Note: GFI (ground fault interrupter) is not recommended.
• 4" minimum clearance is required when door swing is
adjusted to 90°. If the 90° door stop position is used, pan
access is maintained, but pan removal is restricted.
• See door swing illustrations to determine interaction with
adjacent cabinets or countertops.
Water Line
All models are equipped with an automatic icemaker. The
water line can enter the opening through the floor or back
wall. Route 1/4" O.D. copper tubing or GE QuickConnect
kit between the cold water line and the water connection
location. The copper tubing should be long enough to extend
to the front of the refrigerator. The installation of an easily
accessible shut-off valve in the water line is required.
Installation Information: Before installing, consult
installation instructions packed with product, or online at
Monogram.com, for current dimensional data.
