Use and Care Guide
LOCATION REQUIREMENTS 
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, 
away from appliances. Failure to do so can result in fire, 
explosion or death. 
IMPORTANT: 
Do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or 
other heat source, nor in a location where the temperature will fall below 
40°F (5°C). Do not place in direct sunlight.   
Check the strength of the floor before installing your appliance. It should 
hold the weight of a fully loaded appliance. Allow at least 1” (2.5 cm) of 
airspace at the top and on both sides o
f the appliance and 1” (2.5 cm) 
between the back of the appliance and the wall. If the appliance is going 
to be placed against a wall, leave extra space on the hinge side so the 
door can open wider than its width. 
Note: This appliance may be installed side by side with another 
appliance or appliances. Allow for a 3” (7.5 cm) clearance at the top 
and sides and a ¼” (0.64 cm) clearance between the appliances. IF 
YOUR MODEL HAS THE LETTERS “BI” IN THE SUFFIX, IT IS 
DESIGNED FOR BUILT-IN USE, AND DOES NOT REQUIRE 
CLEARANCE EXCEPT IN THE BACK.  
Electrical Shock Hazard 
•  Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. 
•  Do not remove ground prong. 
•  Do not use an adapter. 
•  Do not use an extension cord. 
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electrical 
shock or death. 
Recommended grounding method      
A 115 Volt (AC only) 60 Hz grounded electrical supply with a 15- or 20- 
amp fuse or circuit breaker is required. It is recommended that a separate 
circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use outlets that cannot 
be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord.
