A:Answer It DEPENDS on where you live, and how hot/cold your garage might get! The manual actually contradicts itself. It says "This refrigerator is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation," and on the very next page it says "This refrigerator can be placed in a garage, as long as the ambient temperature in the garage is not below 50 degrees F or above 85 degrees F. (By the way, we were told by a customer rep ahead of purchase that the range was 50 to 109 degrees. That is NOT what the manual states.)
