Important: Child entrapment and suffocation are

not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned

refrigerators are still dangerous – even if they sit out

for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old

refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to

help prevent accidents.

Before you throw away your old

refrigerator or freezer:

•Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so

children may not easily climb

inside.

4. Check with a qualified electrician if you are not

sure this appliance is properly grounded.

5. Do not ground to a gas line.

6. Do not ground to a cold-water pipe.

7. Refrigerator is designed to operate on a separate

115 volt, 15 amp., 60cycle line.

8. Do not modify plug on power cord. If plug does

not fit electrical outlet, have proper outlet installed

by a qualified electrician.

9. Do not use a two-prong adapter, extension cord

or power strip.

10. Do not remove warning tag from power cord.

11. Do not tamper with refrigerator controls.

12. Do not service or replace any partof refrigerator

unless specifically recommended in Use & Care

Guide or published user-repair instructions. Do

not attempt service if instructions are not

understood or if they are beyond personal skill

level.

supply before attempting any service. Disconnect

power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.

14. Install refrigerator according to Installation

Instructions. All connections for water, electrical

power and grounding must comply with local

codes and be made by licensed personnel when

required.

Installation

Your refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment.

Remove and discard shelf packaging and tape. Do not

remove the serial plate.

Location

•Do not install refrigerator near oven, radiator or

other heat source. If not possible, shield refrigerator

with cabinet material.

•Do not install where temperature falls below 55° F

(13° C) or rises above 110° F (43° C). Malfunction

may occur at this temperature.

•Refrigerator is designed for indoor household

application only.

Measuring the Opening

When installing your refrigerator, allow 1⁄2”space at top

and 1⁄2”space behind machine compartment cover

(located in the rear) for proper air circulation. If the

refrigerator is placed with the door hinge side against

awall, you may want to allow additional space so the

door can be opened wider.

Subflooring or floor coverings (i.e. carpet, tile, wood

floors, rugs) may make your opening smaller than

anticipated.

Some clearance may be gained by using the leveling

procedure under Leveling, pg. 9.

Important: If refrigerator is to be installed into a

recess where the top of the refrigerator is completely

covered, use dimensions from floor to top of hinge cap

to verify proper clearance.

Transporting Your Refrigerator

•NEVER transport refrigerator on its side. If an

upright position is not possible, lay refrigerator on its

back. Allow refrigerator to sit upright for

approximately 30 minutes before plugging it in to

assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging

refrigerator in immediately may cause damage to

internal parts.

• Use an appliance dolly when moving refrigerator.

ALWAYS truck refrigerator from its side or

back–NEVER from its front.

• Protect outside finish of refrigerator during transport

by wrapping cabinet in blankets or inserting padding

between the refrigerator and dolly.

• Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with straps or

bungee cords. Thread straps through handles when

possible. Do not over-tighten. Over-tightening

restraints may dent or damage outside finish.

4. Using the carpenter’s level, make sure front of

refrigerator is 1⁄4”(6 mm) or approximately 1⁄2bubble

higher than back of refrigerator and that the

refrigerator is level from side to side.

5. If doors are uneven, do the following:

• Determine which door needs to be raised.

• Turn front roller adjustment screw (A) clockwise

to raise front corner of door.

• If one refrigerator

door has reached

the limit of its

adjustment range

and doors are still

not level, raise or

precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions before installing ice maker.

•Do not attempt installation if instructions are not

understood or if they are beyond personal skill level.

• Observe all local codes and ordinances.

•Do not service ice maker unless specifically

recommended in this Use & Care Guide or

published user-repair instructions.

• Disconnect power to refrigerator before installing

ice maker.

• Water damage due to an improper water

connection may cause mold/mildew growth. Clean

up spills or leakage immediately!

WARNING

To avoid property damage or possible injury,

follow basic precautions, including the

following:

• Consult a plumber to connect 1⁄4”O.D. copper

tubing to household plumbing to assure

compliance with local codes and ordinances.

• Water pressure to water valve must be between 35

and 100 pounds per square inch to function

properly. A minimum pressure of 35 pounds per

square inch is recommended for refrigerators with

water filters.

•Do not use a self-piercing, or 3⁄16”saddle valve.

Both reduce water flow, can become clogged over

time, and may cause leaks if repair is attempted.

• Tighten nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.

Finish tightening nuts with pliers and wrenches. Do

not over-tighten.

• Wait two to three hours before placing refrigerator

into final position to check and correct any water

leaks. Recheck for leaks after 24 hours.

• Verify the copper tubing under the sleeve is smooth

and free from defects. Do not reuse an old sleeve.

CAUTION

Materials Needed:

•1⁄4”outer diameter flexible copper tubing

• Shut-off valve (requires a 1⁄4”hole to be drilled into

water supply line before valve attachment)

•Adjustable wrench (2)

•1⁄4”hex nut driver

• Brass nut and sleeve

Notes:

• Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is

less durable and can cause damage.

• Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water

supply for creation of service loop.

1. Create service loop with

copper tubing (minimum 2’

diameter). Avoid kinks in the

copper tubing when

bending the service loop. Do

not use plastic tubing.

2. Remove plastic cap from water valve

inlet port.

2’ diameter

minimum

3. Place brass nut (A) and sleeve (B)

on copper tube end as illustrated.

Reminder: Do not use an old

sleeve. The nut and sleeve are

provided in the Use and Care

packet.

5. Slide brass nut over sleeve and

screw nut into inlet port.

Place adjustable wrench on nut

(1) attached to plastic waterline

and maintain position.

Using second adjustable wrench

turn the lower nut (2)

counterclockwise and fully

tighten while holding the upper

nut in place.

Important: Do not over-tighten. Cross threading

may occur.

4. Place end of copper tubing into

water valve inlet port. Shape

tubing slightly. Do not kink – so

that tubing feeds straight into inlet

port.
