PREPARATION (Cont.)

Ŷ Install front mullion and access cover trims between

the 2 units. Open the doors and push the flexible

“dart” area of the trims in place between units.

STEP 10 INTERNAL UNIT

PREPARATION

Ŷ Remove all tape, cardboard, and foam from each

unit.

Ŷ Remove boxed door bins from shelves.

Ŷ Unbox and install door bins.

STEP 11 START ICEMAKER

(freezer models)

A newly-installed freezer may take 12–24 hours to

begin making ice.

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—

approximately 15 cycles in a 24-hour period,

depending on freezer compartment temperature, room

temperature, number of door openings and other use

conditions.

If the freezer is operated before the water connection

is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to

OFF. Top wire basket must be removed to access the

icemaker power switch.

When the freezer has been connected to the water

supply, set the power switch to

Throw away the first full bucket of ice to allow the water

line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler

arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the

icemaker will stop producing ice.

It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become

cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

NOTE: Icemaker works best between 40 and 120 PSI

(275-827 kPa) home water pressure.

STEP 12 INSTALL AUTOFILL PITCHER ASSEMBLY (Some Refrigerator Models)

Ŷ Locate the AutoFill pitcher cover on the left side of the

refrigerator’s interior. Remove T20 Torx screw holding

the cover in place towards the rear of the cover. Retain

this screw for attachment of AutoFill assembly.

Ŷ Slide the cover forward to remove. This reveals an

electrical connector and a water tube.

Ŷ Remove the AutoFill assembly from the box. Connect

the 4 pin connector from the AutoFill assembly to the

connector in the compartment wall.

Ŷ Ensure that the locking tab on the connector is fully

engaged.

Ŷ Connect the water line fitting from the AutoFill

assembly to the water tube located in the

compartment. Ensure the water tube is firmly

connected and will not easily become unattached.

Water tube should be inserted to the tubing mark.

Ŷ Conceal wires and tubing inside the wall compartment

and place the AutoFill wall assembly onto the forward

end of the mount until flush with the interior wall of the

refrigerator. Slide the assembly toward the back wall

until mounting screw hole is visible.

Ŷ Secure AutoFill assembly with the T20 Torx screw

removed earlier.

Ŷ Ensure supply water is connected to the refrigerator

before proceeding further.

Ŷ Align the pitcher lid to the dispenser guide and slide

the pitcher toward the back of the refrigerator until it

stops. There may be up to a 5 second response time

before water starts to fill the pitcher.

Ŷ Water will fill the pitcher until it reaches a specified

level and will then shut off. It is normal for the water

level to be below the top of the pitcher.

NOTE: After installing the AutoFill pitcher, run 2 gallons

of water (approximately 5 full pitchers) through the

AutoFill dispenser to remove air from the system.

A newly installed filter cartridge will cause water to

spurt and dribble until the air is out of the system. It is

normal for water to appear discolored during the initial

system flush. Water color will return to normal after the

first minutes of dispensing. Wash the AutoFill pitcher

following the initial flush before using.

NOTE: Do not place the pitcher in the dispenser guide

before the water connection is made to the refrigerator.
