INSTALLATION GUIDE

INSTALLATION LIMITATIONS

 Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard, even surface away from direct sunlight or heat

source, e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances, etc. Any ﬂoor unevenness should be

corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of the refrigerator.

UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the corrugated base and all adhesive tape holding the

refrigerator accessories inside and outside. Retain foam block between doors if door swing reversal is

required.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the

refrigerator.

3. If your refrigerator comes with a snack pan, remove the blue adhesive tape from the rear of the pan.

The pan will not slide in and out without removing the tape.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT - SHOCK HAZARD

 Make sure there is a suitable power outlet. 115 Volt, 15 Amp, 3-prong (grounded) power outlet with

proper grounding to power the refrigerator.

 Avoid the use of 3-prong adapters or cutting oﬀthe third grounding prong in order to accommodate

a 2-prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no eﬀective grounding for the

refrigerator and may result in death, ﬁre or electrical shock.

WARNING

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS - POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD

 Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions. If it

is necessary to use an extensions cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong grounding

plug and a 3-prong outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be

equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

 Do not use an extension cord longer than 12 ft.

 Failure to follow these instructions may result in death, ﬁre or electrical shock.

PROPER AIR CIRCULATION

 To ensure your refrigerator works at the maximum eﬃciency it was designed for, you should install it

in a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections. Your

refrigerator is not designed to operate in temperatures below 55°F (12°C)

or above 95°F (35°C).

 Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or

heated, e.g. garage, etc.

 Keep out of direct sunlight and away from heating sources such as

radiators, heaters and cooking appliances.

 The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:

Sides and Top ………. 1” (25mm) Back ………. 2” (50mm)

4. If your refrigerator comes with smooth or stainless steel doors, please remove the clear ﬁlm before

turning it on for the ﬁrst time. When removing ﬁlm, do not pull the ﬁlm straight down as this could

result in misaligned doors.

5. It is normal for the freezer door to be positioned slightly higher than the top of the cabinet when the

refrigerator is ﬁrst installed. This positioning is done at the factory to ensure gasket seals properly

once the door is weighted with food items.

LEVELING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

 The cabinet must rest ﬁrmly on the ﬂoor.

 The cabinet must sit level from side to side.

 The cabinet must tilt slightly (¼”or 6mm) from front to back for the doors to seal

properly.

 Turn the leveling legs to raise or lower the cabinet.

WATER SUPPLY INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: This water supply installation is not covered under warranty by the refrigerator or ice maker

manufacturer(s). Follow these instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage.

SUPPLIES REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION:

 Access to a household cold water line with water pressure between 20 psi and 120psi

 A water supply line made of 1/4-inch outside diameter, copper tubing. Plastic is not recommended since it

greatly increases the potential for water leaks. To determine the length of the copper tubing needed, you

will need to measure the distance from the ice maker water valve at the back of the refrigerator to your

cold water pipe. Then add approximately 7 feet, so the refrigerator can be moved out for service.

WATER SUPPLY INSTALLATION (CONT.)

A shutoﬀvalve to connect the water supply line to your household water system

NOTE: Do not use a self-piercing type shutoﬀvalve.

A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting the water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve.

Do not install water supply tubing in areas where the temperature falls below freezing.

Connect the ice maker to a drinkable water source that is not connected to a water softening system.

Chemicals from the softener may damage the ice maker, causing it to malfunction.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Disconnect refrigerator from power supply.

2. Turn oﬀwater supply at shut oﬀvalve.

3. Connect copper water supply line to household water system.

4. Turn ON water supply and tighten any connections that leak.

5. Re-install rear access cover for compressor compartment.

6. Coil excess water supply line behind refrigerator, as shown below

and arrange coils so they do not vibrate or wear against other

surfaces. Use water tube clamp and #8 screw from the parts

included bag to secure water supply line to rear of refrigerator.

7. Reconnect refrigerator to power supply.

8. Turn icemaker ON by lowering wire control arm.

CONTROLS

 Allow 24 hours for adjustments.

 The Refrigerator Temperature control should be set at “1 o’clock” and adjusted in small increments after

24 hours to achieve desired temperature.

 The Freezer Temperature control should be set at “12 o’clock” and adjusted in small increments after 24

hours to achieve desired temperature.

 Adjusting the refrigerator control will aﬀect the freezer compartment as well.

 Turning either control to “Oﬀ” or the lowest temperature setting does not disconnect the power supply

from the refrigerator.

Refrigerator Temperature Freezer Temperature Crisper

ICE MAKER (NOT ALL MODELS)

To stop the ice maker, lift the wire arm until it clicks and locks in the OFF

(raised) position. The ice maker turns OFF automatically when the ice

container is full.

NOTE: It takes approximately 24 hours for the ice maker to begin

producing ice. New plumbing may cause ice discoloration and

poor ﬂavor. Discard ice made in the ﬁrst 24 hours.

Water quality determines ice quality. Do not connect the ice maker to

water that is softened. Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can

damage the ice maker.

Ice stored too long may develop an odd ﬂavor. Empty the container and make sure the wire arm is in the

ON (lowered) position. The ice maker will then produce ice.

Keep the wire arm in OFF position until the refrigerator is connected to the water supply or whenever the

water supply is turned OFF.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not wash the ice container in your dishwasher.

 Be sure to stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer or on vacation.

 If the ice maker has to be turned OFF for a long period of time, turn the water supply valve to the closed

position.

Wire Control Arm

STORAGE

In order for air to ﬂow properly inside of your refrigerator, do not store items directly in front of the freezer

fan tower vents, directly under the refrigerator vent or against the sides of the refrigerator compartment.

Position items toward the center of shelves.
