SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous
- even if they will sit for "just a few days." Ifyou are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
Takeoff the doors.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
L
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
r
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
When Moving Your Refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for
cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with
cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull
the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or
"walk" the refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor
damage could occur.
Remove packaging materials. Do not use sharp instruments,
rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your
refrigerator. For more information, see "Refrigerator Safety."
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.
2
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failureto do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for 1/2"
(1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your
refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2" (5.08 cm) minimum on
each side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to
swing open. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra
space at the back for the water line connections.

It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near
an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).
Normal minimum cabinet cut-out width required for product
installation is 36" (91.44 cm). However, if the product is placed
against an extended wall and the ability to remove the crisper
pans is desired, an additional 18" (45.72 cm) of cabinet width
is required, so a total cabinet opening width of 54"
(137.16 cm)is recommended.

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.
Failure to follow 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 the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or
Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and then
disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you
are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and
reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control
depending on the model) to the desired setting. See "Using the
Controls."
Wa<z;;:::,. !j
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.
Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed
here.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Flat-blade screwdriver 1/4"Nut driver
7/le"and 1/2"Open-end or two 1/4"Drill bit
adjustable wrenches Cordless drill
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4"
(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or ¾e"
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
IMPORTANT:
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing
only in areas where the household temperatures will remain
above freezing.
Water Pressure
A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and
120 psi (207 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.
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 30 and 120 psi (207 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).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
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 usage.
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.
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
Connect to Water Line
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3. Locate a 1/2"(12.70 mm) to 1_¼'' (3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
4,
5,
Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure
from the connection on the lower rear corner of refrigerator to
the water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use V4"
(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both
ends of copper tubing are cut square.
Using a cordless drill, drill a V4" (6.35 mm) hole in the cold
water pipe you have selected.

Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the V4"(6.35 mm)
drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the
pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp
screws slowly and evenly so the washer makes a watertight
seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the
copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the
outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw the compression
nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not
overtighten.
8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and turn
ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear.
Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper
tubing.
Connect to Refrigerator
Style 1
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten.
3. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure
the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid
damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back
against the wall.

REMEMBER:
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage
bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the
dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage
bin.

the storage bin is removed.
Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely in place.
8
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
Water Filter Status Light (on some models)
The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter. When the water filter status display changes from
"GOOD" to "ORDER," this tells you that it is almost time to
change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter cartridge
when the water filter status display changes to "REPLACE." If
water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced
at least every 6 months depending on your water quality and
usage.
After changing the water filter, reset the status light by pressing
and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will
change from "REPLACE" to "GOOD" when the system is reset.
Changing the Water Filter

REFRIGERATOR CARE
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
3.
4.
5,
Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal
home operating environments. If the environment is
particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in
the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to
3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
Remove the base grille.
Use a vacuum cleaner with asoft brush to clean the grille,
the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area
of the condenser.
Replace the base grille when finished.
Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for the
refrigerator to cool completely.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to coldest setting
will not cool either compartment more quickly.
The motor seems to run too much
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its
high-efficiency compressor and fans. The unit may run even
longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, doors are
opened often, or if the doors have been left open.
The refrigerator isnoisy
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this
reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new
refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below are
listed some normal sounds with an explanation.
Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice
maker
Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
performance
Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or from items placed
on top of the refrigerator
Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during
defrost cycle
Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls, especially
during initial cool-down
Water running - may be heard when ice melts during the
defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan
Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from the
ice maker mold.
The doors will not close completely
Door blocked open? Move food packages away from door.
Bin or shelf in the way? Push bin or shelf back in the correct
position.
The doors are difficult to open

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Are the gaskets dirty or sticky? Clean gaskets with mild
soap and warm water.
The lights do not work
Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See
"Changing the Light Bulbs."
Is the dispenser light set to OFF? The dispenser light will
operate only when the levers are pressed. If you want the
dispenser light to stay on continuously, set the dispenser light
to ON, or NIGHT LIGHT or AUTO or HALF or DIM. See "Water

baissera au-dessous de 55°F (13°C).
La largeur de la cavite d'encastrement dolt etre d'au moins
36" (91,44 cm) pour I'installation du produit. Cependant, si le
produit est place contre une paroi relativement Iongue et si on
veut pouvoir retirer les bacs & legumes et fl viande, il convient
d'elargir la cavite de 18" (45,72 cm). On recommande donc
une cavite d'encastrement d'une largeur totale de 54"
(137,16 cm).
Risque de choc _lectrique
Brancher sur une prise a 3 alv_oles reli_e a la terre.
Ne pas enlever la broche de liaison a la terre.
Ne pas utiliser un adaptateur.

Rassembler les outils et pieces necessaires avant de commencer
I'installation. Lire et suivre les instructions fournies avec les outils
indiques ici.
OUTILLAGE REQUlS :
Tournevis fl lame plate Tourne-ecrou de V4"
Cles plates de 7As"et V_"ou Foret de V4"
deux cles fl molette reglables Perceuse sans fil
REMARQUE :Votre marchand de refrigerateurs presente une
trousse disponible avec un robinet d'arret fl etrier de V4"
(6,35 mm), un raccord et un tube en cuivre. Avant I'achat,
s'assurer que le robinet d'arret fl etrier est conforme fl vos codes
Iocaux de plomberie. Ne pas employer de robinet d'arret fl etrier
de 3As"(4,76 mm) ou de type fl percer, ce qui reduit le debit d'eau
et cause une obstruction plus facilement.
IM PORTANT:
Toutes les installations doivent etre conformes aux exigences
des codes Iocaux de plomberie.
Utiliser un tube en cuivre et verifier s'il a des fuites. Installer les
tubes en cuivre seulement fl des endroits oQ la temperature se
maintient au-dessus du point de congelation.
Pression de I'eau
Une alimentation en eau froide avec une pression entre 30 et
120 Ib/po _(207 et 827 kPa) est necessaire pour faire fonctionner
le distributeur d'eau et la machine & glagons. Si vous avez des
questions au sujet de la pression de votre eau, appeler un
plombier qualifie agree.
Alimentation en eau par osmose inverse
IMPORTANT : La pression de I'alimentation en eau entre le
systeme d'osmose inverse et la valve d'arrivee d'eau du
refrigerateur dolt etre entre 30 et 120 Ib/po 2(207 et 827 kPa).
Si un systeme de purification de I'eau par osmose inverse est
raccorde &votre alimentation en eau froide, la pression de I'eau
au systeme dolt etre d'un minimum de 40 fl 60 Ib/po 2 (276 fl
414 kPa).
Si la pression de I'eau au systeme d'osmose inverse est inferieure
&40 fl 60 Ib/po _(276 & 414 kPa) :
Verifier si le filtre &sediment du systeme d'osmose inverse est
bloque et le remplacer si necessaire.
Laisser le reservoir du systeme d'osmose inverse se remplir
apres une utilisation intense.
Si votre refrigerateur a une cartouche de filtre & eau, celle-ci
peut reduire encore plus la pression de I'eau Iorsqu'elle est
utilisee avec un systeme d'osmose inverse. Retirer la
cartouche du filtre & eau. Voir "Systeme de filtration d'eau".
Si vous avez des questions au sujet de la pression de votre eau,
appeler un plombier qualifie agree.

Lire toutes les instructions avant de commencer.
IMPORTANT : Si on dolt mettre en marche le refrigerateur avant
qu'il soit raccorde & la canalisation d'eau, placer lacommande de
la machine fl glagons fl la position OFF (arret).
Raccordement _ une canalisation d'eau
1. Debrancher le refrigerateur ou deconnecter la source de
courant electrique.
2. FERMER le robinet principal d'arrivee d'eau. OUVRIR le
robinet de puisage le plus proche pendant une periode
suffisante pour que la canalisation d'eau se vide.
3. Trouver une canalisation d'eau froide verticale de
W' (12,7 mm) fl 11/4"(3,18 cm) pres du refrigerateur.
IMPORTANT :
S'assurer qu'il s'agit d'une canalisation d'eau froide.
Un conduit horizontal fonctionnera, mais percer par le
dessus de la canalisation et non pas par le dessous. Ceci
permet de tenir le point de pergage & I'ecart de I'eau et
d'empecher les sediments qu'on trouve normalement
dans I'eau de s'accumuler dans le robinet d'arret.
