4Safety

EJectrica information

WARNING

You must follow these guidelines to ensure

that your refrigerator's safety mechanisms are

operating correctly.

*The refrigerator must be plugged into

its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC-

only electric outlet. The power cord of the

appliance is equipped with a three-prong

grounding plug for your protection against

electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged

directly into a properly grounded three-

prong receptacle. The receptacle must be

installed in accordance with local codes and

ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician.

Do not use an extension cord or adapter

plug.

,If the power cord is damaged, it should

be replaced by the manufacturer, service

technician or a qualified person to prevent

any risk.

, Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on

the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,

and pull straight out from the receptacle to

prevent damaging the power cord.

,, Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning

and before replacing a light bulb to avoid

electrical shock.

Performance may be affected if the voltage

varies by 10% or more. Operating the

refrigerator with insufficient power can

damage the compressor, Such damage is not

covered under your warranty.

• Do not plug

the unit into an

outlet controlled

by a wall switch

or pull cord to

prevent the

refrigerator from

being turned off

accidentally.

,, Avoid connecting

refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interrupter

(GFI) circuit.

iMPORTANT

To turn off power to your refrigerator, unplug the

power cord from the wall outlet.

Installation 5

This Use & Care Guide provides general operating

instructions for your model. Use the refrigerator

only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before

starting the refrigerator, follow these important

first steps.

Location

* Choose a place that is near a grounded

electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension

cord or an adapter plug.

,, If possible, place the refrigerator out of

direct sunlight and away from the range,

dishwasher or other heat sources.

• The refrigerator must be installed on a floor

that is level and strong enough to support a

fully loaded refrigerator.

• Consider water supply availability for models

equipped with an automatic ice maker.

CAUTION

DO NOT install the refrigerator where the

temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or

rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor wil!

not be able to maintain proper temperatures

inside the refrigerator,

DO NOT block the toe grille on the lower front

of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation

is essential for the proper operation of your

refrigerator.

Door opening

NOTE

The refrigerator doors are designed to shut by

themselves within a 20 degree opening.

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy

access to a counter when removing food, For best

use of drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator

should be in a position where both the refrigerator

and freezer doors can be fully opened.

Guidelines for final positioning of your

refrigerator:

,, All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly

on the floor.

The cabinet should be level at the front and

rear.

* The sides should tilt !4 inch (6 mm) from front

to back (to ensure that doors close and seal

properly).

,, Doors should align with each other and be

level.

All of these conditions can be met by

raising or lowering the adjustable front

rollers.

To level the doors using the adjustable lower

hinge (some models):

1 If the refrigerator door is lower than the

freezer door, raise the refrigerator door by

turning the adjustment screw clockwise using

a 7/1Ginch socket wrench. (See illustration.)

2 If the freezer door is lower than the

refrigerator door, raise the freezer door by

turning the adjustment screw clockwise using

a 7/ieinch socket wrench. (See illustration.)

After leveling, verify door stop contacts lower

hinge and top of door does not contact upper

hinge through full movement of door (from

fully closed to fully open).

To level the cabinet using the front rollers: OpenDoor

Connecting The Water Supply

About your refrigerator's water supply

The automatic ice & water dispenser on your

refrigerator requires a permanent water supply

to function correctly. During installation, you

(or a service professional) establish this water

supply by connecting a copper tube from your

household water system to a valve at the rear of

the refrigerator,

You may have already followed the directions in

the Installation Instructions to connect the water

supply. This information is repeated here for future

reference if you need to relocate your refrigerator.

CAUTION

To avoid property damage:

• Use copper tubing for the water supply

line (plastic tubing is more likely to leak),

Manufacturer is not responsible for any

damage if plastic tubing is used for supply

line.

Ensure water supply and installation comply

with state and local laws and regulations.

For proper dispenser operation,

recommended water supply pressure

should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.

Excessive pressure may cause water filter

to malfunction.

What you will need:

,, Access to a cold water line with pressure of

30-100 psi. (System supplied with cold water

only.)

,, Copper tubing with ¼ inch (6.4mm) Outside

Diameter (OD). Length for this tubing is the

distance from the rear of the refrigerator to

your household water supply line plus seven

feet (2.1 meters).

,, A shut-off valve for the connection between

your household water line and the refrigerator

supply line.

Do not use a self-piercing shut-off valve.

,, A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for

the water supply connection at the rear of

your refrigerator.

NOTE

A kit is available from your dealer that provides all

materials for a water supply installation, including

25 feet of copper tubing and full instructions.

placing the end of the copper tube in a sink

or bucket and opening the shut-off valve,

3 Unscrew the plastic cap from the water valve

inlet at the rear of your refrigerator. Discard

the cap.

4 Slide the brass compression nut, then the

ferrule (sleeve) onto copper tube.

5 Push the copper tube into water valve inlet as

far as it will go (¼ inch).

6 Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into valve and

finger-tighten the compression nut onto valve.
