How much space do I need to leave around the refrigerator during installation?

Allow ½ inch (1.25 cm) of space on each side and at the top for proper ventilation. When installing next to a fixed wall, leave a minimum of 2 inches (5.08 cm) on each side to allow the door to swing open. Do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or other heat source, or in a location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C). (Page 3)
