What's New Behind the Doors?
Your Maytag°French Door Refrigerator comes equipped with various
innovative storage and energy efficient features.
Energy and Normal Operating Sounds
Your new French Door Bottom Mount refrigerator has been
designed to optimize energy efficiency, and better regulate
temperatures to match cooling demand. You may notice that it
operates differently than your previously owned refrigerator. It is
normal for the high-efficiency compressor to run for extended
periods of time at varying speeds in order to consume only the
energy necessary for optimum efficiency. In addition, during
various stages of the cooling cycle, you may hear normal
operating sounds that are unfamiliar to you.
More Storage Space
The French Door Bottom Mount has the most fresh food storage
space available, including a full-width, temperature controlled,
pantry drawer perfect for storing veggie trays or party platters.
In-Door-Ice ° Ice Dispensing System
The ice storage bin located in the door provides an entire extra
shelf of storage space, and the storage bin is removable for easy
access to filtered ice.
Dual Evaporator (on some models)
The refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment have
separate evaporators to provide fresh food and frozen food with
separate climates. The refrigerator stays cool and humid for the
optimum storage of fresh foods while the freezer stays cold and
dry. Humidity from the refrigerator does not mix with dry freezer
air, so frost is controlled, which reduces freezer burn. Since no air
is shared between the refrigerator and freezer, the transfer of food
odors and tastes from the refrigerator to the freezer is eliminated.
Water Filter
NSF®Certified filter reduces chlorine taste and odor, particulates
(class I), lead, and mercury. Replacing the water filter every
6 months ensures clean, filtered drinking water.
Air Filter
An air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at
reducing common food odors inside the refrigerator.
Produce Preserver (on some models)
Ethylene is a natural gas produced by fruits and vegetables to
promote ripening. The Produce Preserver absorbs ethylene, to
delay the over-ripening of fresh produce. As a result, certain
produce items will stay fresh longer.
LED Lighting
The LEDlights do not ever need to be replaced.
Door Alarm
A helpful alarm sounds when the refrigerator door or freezer
drawer is left ajar.
Power Outage Indicator (on some models)
If the power should go out while you are away from home, this
indicator will let you know that the refrigerator has been without
power.

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside
of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions
in "Refrigerator Care."
important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
Location Requirements
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable rnateria}s and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, exp}osion, or fire.
IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor, household
use only.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a 1/2"
(1.25 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for a 1"
(2.54 cm) space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an
ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line
connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall,
leave a 33/4'' (9.5 cm) minimum space between the refrigerator
and wall to allow the door to swing open.
NOTE: This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the
temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a
maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range
for optimum performance, which reduces electricity usage and
provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F
(32°C). It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near a heat source, such as an oven or radiator.

Electrical Requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Fai}ure to fol}ow these instructions 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-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. It is recommended 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.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn Cooling OFF, and then disconnect the
refrigerator from the electrical source. When you have finished,
reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn
Cooling ON. See "Using the Control(s)."
Water Supply Requirements
A cold water supply with water pressure between 35 and 120 psi
(241 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and
ice maker. Ifyou have questions about your water pressure, call a
licensed, qualified plumber.
NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow
of water from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes
could be hollow or irregular shaped.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a
reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the
refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and
827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse
osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill
after heavy use. The tank capacity could be too small to keep
up with the requirements of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Faucet mounted reverse osmosis systems are not
recommended.
If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the
water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse
osmosis system. Remove the water filter. See "Water
Filtration System."
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.
Connect the Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IM PORTANI"."

Refrigerator Leveling, Door Closing and Alignment
The base grille covers the adjustable brake feet and roller
assemblies located at the bottom of the refrigerator below the
freezer drawer. Before making any adjustments, remove the base
grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.
Tools Needed: 1/4"hex driver
Tools Provided: 1/8"hex key wrench
1. Remove the base grille. Grasp the grille firmly and pull it
toward you. Open the freezer drawer to access the brake
feet.
NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the break
feet by turning them counterclockwise. The front rollers will
be touching the floor.
2. Move the refrigerator to its final location.
3. Lower the brake feet, by turning them clockwise, until the
rollers are off the floor and both brake feet are snug against
the floor. This keeps the refrigerator from rolling forward when
opening the refrigerator doors or freezer drawer.
IMPORTANT: If you need to make further adjustments
involving the brake feet, you must turn both brake feet the
same amount to keep the refrigerator level.
4. Make sure the doors close easily. If you are satisfied with the
door opening and closing, skip the next section and go to
"Align the Doors." If however, the doors do not close easily or
the doors pop open, adjust the tilt.
To Adjust the Cabinet Tilt:
Open the freezer drawer. Use a 1/4"hex driver to turn both
brake feet clockwise the same amount. This will raise the
front of the refrigerator. It may take several turns to allow
the doors to close easier.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This
makes it easier to turn them.

Make sure the doors are even at the top and that the space
between the bottom of the refrigerator doors and the top of
the freezer drawer is even. If necessary, align the doors.
To Align the Doors:
Keeping both refrigerator doors closed, pull out the
freezer drawer. Locate the bottom hinge pin of the
right-hand refrigerator door. The alignment screw is inside
the bottom hinge pin.
Insert the short end of the 1/8"hex key wrench (packed
with the Door Handle Installation Instructions) into the
bottom hinge pin until it is fully engaged in the alignment
screw.
To raise the refrigerator door, turn the hex key to the right.
To lower the door, turn the hex key to the left.
Continue to turn the alignment screw until the doors are
aligned.

Make sure the refrigerator is steady. Ifthe refrigerator seems
unsteady or rolls forward when the door or drawer is pulled
open, adjust the brake feet.
To Steady the Refrigerator:
Open the freezer drawer. Using a 1/4"hex driver, turn both
brake feet clockwise the same amount until the brake feet
are snug against the floor. Check again. If not satisfied,
continue to adjust the brake feet by half turns of the
screw until the refrigerator does not roll forward when the
drawer is opened.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This
makes it easier to turn the screws.
Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille with
the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping the grille
into place.

of fruit or vegetable. To preserve freshness, it is best to separate
produce with sensitivity to ethylene from fruits that produce
moderate to high amounts of ethylene.
