Installing Your Refrigerator

It is important to prepare your refrigerator for use. This section tells you how to clean it, connect it to a power

source, install it, and level it.

Unpacking your refrigerator

Removing packaging materials

Remove tape and any labels from your refrigerator

before using (except permanent instruction labels

and the model and serial number label).

To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the

area briskly with your thumb. Do not use sharp

instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or

abrasive cleaners. These products can damage the

surface of your refrigerator. For more information,

see "Important Safety Instructions" on page 1.

Cleaning before use

After you remove all of the packaging materials,

clean your refrigerator before using it if

needed. See the cleaning instructions

on page 22 for more information.

Electrical requirements

Fire Hazard

Do not use an extension cord.

Doing so can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.

Before you move your refrigerator into its final

location, it is important to make sure you have the

proper electrical connection.

Recommended Grounding Method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 or 20 ampere fused,

grounded electrical supply is required. It is recom-

mended that a separate circuit serving only your

refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot

be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension

cord. Refer to the Electrical Requirements and

Grounding Instructions Sheet in your Literature

Package for more details.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation,

cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn the

Thermostat to OFF and then disconnect the

refrigerator from the electrical source. When

you are finished connect the refrigerator to the

electrical source and reset the Thermostat to the

desired setting.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded three prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Space requirements

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator,

allow for a 1/2-inch(1.25 cm) space on each side

and at the top. For models that have ice and water

dispensers, make sure you leave some extra space

at the back to allow for the water line connections.

NOTE: Do not install the refrigerator near an oven,

radiator, or other heat source, nor in a location

where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).

Leveling and door alignment

If the refrigerator is not leveled during installation,

the doors may be misaligned and not close or seal

properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture

problems. It is very important for the refrigerator

to be level in order to function properly.

Move the refrigerator into its final position. Use a

level on top of the refrigerator to check that it is

level from side-to-side and front-to-back. If the

refrigerator is not level or the doors are uneven,

level the refrigerator using the instructions below.

NOTE: If your refrigerator has an automatic ice

maker, level it before attaching the ice maker to a

water supply. If you move the refrigerator after the

water line has been hooked up you may loosen or

disconnect the fittings.

1. Roll out the refrigerator and use a level to check

the floor at the back from side-to-side. Use

shims as needed to bring the floor near the wall

to level if it is uneven. Roll the refrigerator back

into place with the rear rollers on top of any

shim(s) used so that the rear of the refrigerator

is bevel.

2. With the rear already level and the refrigerator in

place, use the front leveling screws to level the

refrigerator from side-to-side and front-to-back.

Open the refrigerator door and remove the base

grille to find the two leveling screws. They are

part of the Front Roller assemblies which are

found at the base of the refrigerator on either side.

left to lower

Use a screw-

driver to adjust

Front Roller

Leveling screw

NOTE: The leveling screw on the freezer side

raises or lowers the freezer door. The leveling

screw on the refrigerator side raises or lowers the

refrigerator door.

Leveling and door alignment (cont.)

3. To level your refrigerator, you may either turn

the screw clockwise to raise the lower door or

turn the screw counterclockwise to lower the

higher door. Place a level on top of the refrig-

erator to check adjustments. Use a screw driver

to adjust the leveling screw. (See diagram.)

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of

the refrigerator takes some weight off the

leveling screws and rollers. This makes it easier

to adjust the screws.

4. Open and close doors after each adjustment.

Make sure the doors are even. If not, repeat

steps 3 and 4.

5. Reinstall the base grille.

Attaching the ice maker to a water supply

Read all directions carefully before

you begin.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Unplug the refrigerator before installing

ice maker.

Failure to do so can result in death or

electrical shock.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS:

• All installations must be in accordance with local

plumbing code requirements.

•Use copper tubing only and check for leaks.

•Install ice maker tubing in areas where

temperatures are above freezing.

•It may take up to 24 hours for your ice maker to

begin producing ice.

• If operating the refrigerator before installing the

water connection, turn ice maker to the OFF

position to prevent operation without water.

Valve selection

Your appliance dealer has a kit available with a

1/4-inchsaddle type shut-off valve, a union, and

copper tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a

saddle type valve complies with your local plumb-

ing codes. Do not use a piercing type or ¾8-inch

saddle valve which reduces water flow and

clogs more easily.

Cold water supply

The ice maker water valve contains a flow washer

which is used as a water pressure regulator. The

ice maker needs to be connected to a cold water

line with water pressure limitations of 20-120 psi.

If a problem occurs, call your utility company or a

licensed plumber.

INSTALLATION IS NOT WARRANTED

BY REFRIGERATOR OR ICE MAKER

MANUFACTURER.

Tools needed:

• Standard screwdriver

• 7,46-inchand 1/2-inch#pen-end wrenches or

two adjustable wrenShes

• 1/4-inch nut driver

• 1/4-inch drill bit

• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)

Attaching the ice maker to a water supply (cont.)

Connecting to water line

1. Find a 1/?-inch to 11/4-inch vertical COLD water

pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the follow-

ing precaution must be taken: Drill on the top

side of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help

keep water away from the drill. This also keeps

normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

2. Measure from connection on rear of refrigerator

to water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1 m) to allow for

moving refrigerator for cleaning. This is the

length of 1/4-inchO.D. copper tubing you will

need for the job (length from connection to

water pipe PLUS 7 feet [2.1 m]). Be sure both

ends of copper tubing are cut square.

3. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest

faucet long enough to clear line of water.

4. Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4-inch hole on the

cold water pipe you have selected.

5. Fasten shut-off valve to cold water pipe with pipe

clamp. Be sure outlet end is solidly in the ¼-inch

drilled hole in the water pipe and that washer is

under the pipe clamp. Tighten packing nut.

Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and

evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not

overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing,

especially if soft (coiled) copper tubing is used.

Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing.

6. Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on

copper tubing as shown in diagram. Insert end of

tubing into outlet end squarely as far as it will go.

Screw compression nut onto outlet end with

adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten. Turn ON

main water supply and flush out tubing until

water is clear. Turn OFF shut-off valve on the

water pipe, Coil copper tubing.

Connecting to refrigerator

1. Disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the

product and insert copper tubing through the

clamp as shown at the right. Attach the copper

tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut

and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression

nut. Do not overtighten. Reattach the tube

clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet.

Move to step 2.

2. Turn shut-off valve ON. CHECK FOR LEAKS.

TIGHTEN ANY CONNECTIONS (INCLUDING

CONNECTIONS AT THE VALVE) OR NUTS

THAT LEAK.

3. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water

screen. However, for long lasting operation, it is

recommended that a filter be installed between

the shut-off valve and the refrigerator. (You can

order filter part number 4378411 using the toll-

free number on the back of this manual.)

4. After completing installation, connect the

refrigerator to the electrical supply and push it

back into place.

5. Check again to make sure the refrigerator is

level. (See "Leveling and door alignment" on

page 4.)

Using Your Refrigerator

To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator, it is important that you operate it properly. This section

tells you how to set the controls, remove and adjust the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.

Setting the controls

When you first install your refrigerator, set the

Thermostat Control at -i- and the Air Balance

Control at -i-. Give your refrigerator time to cool

down completely before adding food. It is best to

wait 24 hours before adding food.

IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator

has cooled completely, your food may spoil. Turning

the Thermostat and Air Balance Controls to a higher

than recommended setting will not cool the com-

partments any faster.

How the controls work

There are two controls in your refrigerator

compartment. Knowing how each works will help

you set the controls properly for your own house-

hold conditions.

The Thermostat Control adjusts both the refrig-

THERMOSTAT erator and freezer

compartment tem-

peratures. Settings

1-3 make the overall

temperature in both

compartments warmer.

Settings 4-6 make the

overall temperature in

both compartments

colder.

NOTE: Your product

will not cool when the Thermostat Control is set

to OFF.

The Air Balance Control divides the amount of

AIR BALANCE

Icold air entering both

compartments. Settings

1 and 2 direct more cold

air into the refrigerator

compartment. Settings 3

and 4 direct more cold

air into the freezer

compartment.

Hold your hand in front of the top vent (see

the diagram "Ensuring proper air circulation" on

page 9) and adjust the Air Balance Control to feel

the difference in air flow. As you adjust the Air

Balance Control to a lower setting, you will feel

more cold air entering the Refrigerator compart-

ment. If you make changes to the control settings,

it is best to move the control knob in 1/2step

increments and wait 24 hours in between adjust-

ments. This will help prevent you from making your

refrigerator warmer or colder than needed.

For further information about air circulation or

temperature, refer to the Troubleshooting

Guide on pages 28-34.

.....i ..........................................................................................

Ensuring proper air circulation

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need

to permit air flow between the two compartments.

As shown in the illustration, cold air enters the

bottom of the freezer section (A) and moves up.

It then enters the fresh food section through the

top vent (B).Air returns to the freezer through the

vent at (C).

Do not block any of these vents with food

such as soda, cereal, bread, etc. If the vents

are blocked, air flow will be prevented and the

temperature controls will not function properly.

To adjust the air control vent D, see "Adjusting the

Meat Drawer Temperature" on page 13. This

vent directs cold air into the meat drawer so that

it is colder than the rest of the refrigerator com-

partment.

NOTE: Because air circulates between both

sections, any odors formed in one section will

transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean

both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor

transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

For further information about air circulation or

temperature, refer to the Troubleshooting

Guide on pages 28-34.
