Proper Disposal of Your Old

Refrigerator

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.” If you are getting rid

of your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help

prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:

■ Take off the doors.

■ Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily

climb inside.

INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

Unpack the Refrigerator

Remove the Packaging

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the white foam air return insert from

behind the control panel on the ceiling of the refrigerator. If the

insert is removed, ice may migrate down from the freezer and

cause icicles to form.

■ Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning

on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap

over the adhesive with your ngers. Wipe with warm water

and dry with a soft cloth.

■ Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, ammable

uids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These

products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For

more information, see “Refrigerator Safety.”

Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside

of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in

“Refrigerator Care.”

WARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

Important information to know about disposal of

refrigerants:

Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local

regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,

EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with

established procedures.

WARNING

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 oor with

cardboard or hardboard to avoid oor damage. Always pull

the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or

“walk” the refrigerator when trying to move it, as oor

damage could occur.

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

IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor household

use only.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, it is

recommended to allow a 1/2" (1.25 cm) space on each side.

Allow 1½" (3.81 cm) of space between overhead cabinets and

refrigerator top. Allow at least 1" (2.54 cm) between back of

cabinet and the wall (consider the condenser as back in case is

present). If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at

the back for the water line connections.

If you are installing your refrigerator next to a xed wall, leave

enough space on the hinge side to allow the door to swing open.

Level the refrigerator. See "Adjust the Doors" part of this manual.

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

Before you move your refrigerator into its nal 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 A 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 or cleaning,

or removing a light bulb, turn cooling off or 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 nished, reconnect the

refrigerator to the electrical source and turn cooling on or

reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator, or Freezer control,

depending on the model) to the desired setting. See “Using the

Controls” in the User Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care

Guide.

Water Supply Requirements

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

■ Connect to potable water supply only.

■ If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is

connected, turn the ice maker off.

■ 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.

TOOLS NEEDED: Flat-blade screwdriver, 7/16" and 1/2" open-

end wrenches or 2 adjustable wrenches, 1/4" nut driver and drill

bit, cordless drill. Gather the required tools and parts before

starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided

with any tools listed.

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 3/16"

(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water ow and clogs more

easily.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep ammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or re.

2"(3.81cm

)

2"(1.25 cm

)

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.

WARNING

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or

of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before

or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction

may be used on disinfected waters that may contain

filterable cysts.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi

(207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If you have

questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualied

plumber.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

If a reverse osmosis water ltration 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 ice maker is still not operating properly:

■ Check to see whether the sediment lter in the reverse

osmosis system is blocked. Replace the lter if necessary.

■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to rell

after heavy usage.

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,

qualied plumber.

Connect the Water Supply

(on some models)

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line

is connected, turn the ice maker off to avoid excessive noise or

damage to the water valve.

Connect the 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" to 1¹⁄

" (1.27 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water

pipe near the refrigerator.

IMPORTANT:

■ Make sure it is a cold water pipe.

■ Horizontal pipe will work. 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.

4. Determine the length of copper tubing you will need. Measure

from the connection on lower left rear of refrigerator to the

water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4"

(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both

ends of copper tubing are cut square.

5. Using a cordless drill, drill a 1/4" hole in the cold water pipe

you have selected.

6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe

clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4" 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 washer makes a watertight seal. Do not

overtighten.

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 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

NOTE: On kit models, attach water valve to refrigerator according

to kit instructions.

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.

4. Turn shutoff valve ON.

5. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including

connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

6. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If your

water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in

the 1/4" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain

a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.

Style 2

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the product and

insert the copper tubing through the clamp as shown.

3. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression

nut and sleeve as shown.

4. Tighten the compression nut. Do not overtighten. Reattach the

tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet.

Adjust the Doors

IMPORTANT: Your refrigerator complies with American

Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines.

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has two front adjustable levelers - one on the

right and one on the left. To avoid a hazard due to instability, if

your refrigerator seems unsteady or you want the doors to close

easier, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the following instructions:

1. Turn the leveler to lower or raise that side of the refrigerator.

It may take several turns to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

■ To raise, turn the leveler to the right.

■ To lower, turn the leveler to the left.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the levelers and rollers

which makes it easier to adjust.

2. Open both doors again to make sure they close as easily as

you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by

turning both leveling legs to the left; it may take several more

turns.

NOTE: To keep the refrigerator level, you should turn both

leveling legs the same amount.

3. Using a level, be sure that the refrigerator is still level side to

side. Readjust if necessary.

Door Aligning

If the space between your doors looks uneven, you can adjust it

using the following instructions:

1. Depending on your model, remove the Top Hinge cover.

2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a 5⁄16" socket or wrench.

3. Have someone hold the door in place or put a spacer

between the doors while you tighten the top hinge screws.

4. Replace the Top Hinge cover, if removed in Step 1.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

Your refrigerator has two controls that affect the temperature.

The Temperature control located at the top front of the refrigerator

compartment and the Airow control located on the back wall of

the freezer compartment.

IMPORTANT:

■ The recommended setting should be correct for normal

household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly

when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream

is rm.

■ Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before

adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has

cooled completely, your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature

controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool

the compartments any faster.

■ If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator

or freezer, rst check the air vents to be sure they are not

blocked before adjusting the controls.

Temperature Control

For your convenience, the Temperature control is preset at the

factory. When you rst install your refrigerator, make sure the

control is still preset as shown.

Recommended Setting

Cooling Off/On

■ To turn cooling off, press and hold the Setting button for 4

seconds until all lights are illuminated for 1 second. To turn

cooling back on, press and hold the Setting button again for

4 seconds.

NOTE: Neither compartment will cool when the control is set to

OFF.

Adjusting the Temperature Control

If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or

freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart below as

a guide.

NOTE: Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust the

control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between

adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.

■ Press the SETTING button to toggle among the 4 LED lights

which indicate the temperature setting. Reading from left to

right, the LED in the rst position is the least cold. The LEDs

indicate increasingly colder settings as you continue to the

Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of

food, the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and

moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Seal the package

or container securely to avoid taste and odor transfer throughout

the product. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This

simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package

have condensed, creating ice crystals.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within

24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food per cubic foot [907

to 1,350 g per L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the

freezer for air to circulate around packages. The freezer door must

close tightly.

NOTE: For more information on preparing food for freezing, check

a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

DOOR FEATURES

Your model may have some or all of these features.

Door Rails

The door rails may be removed for easier cleaning.

To remove and replace the rails:

1. Depending on your model, remove the rails by pushing in

slightly on the front of the bracket while pulling out on the

inside tab. Repeat these steps for the other end.

2. Replace the rails by aligning the ends of the brackets with the

buttons on the sides of the door liner. Firmly snap bracket and

assembly onto the tabs above the shelf as shown.

Door Bins

To remove and replace the bins:

lock and sliding in the opposite side until it stops.

Ice Maker

IMPORTANT: For models with a water lter, after connecting the

refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water lter, ll and

discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water lter for

use.

For products without any part of the ice dispensing circuit, ice

maker and internal water circuit parts can only be installed by the

Manufacturer or by its Service Agent.

For Easy Connect (ice maker ready) products, ice maker can be

easily installed by the user, following instruction given with the kit.

In "Accessories" part of this manual you can nd the ice maker

part number to be purchased.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shut-off arm.

To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shut-off arm to the

Off (arm up) position and listen for the click.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,

the ice cubes will ll the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will

raise the wire shut-off arm to the Off (arm up) position. Do not

force the wire shut-off arm up or down.

Ice Storage Bin

1. Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.

2. Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker and push it

toward the back as far as it will go.

3. Lower the arm on the ice maker to the On position.

NOTE: It usually takes approximately 24 hours for the ice

maker to begin producing ice. You may notice the ice has

an “off-taste.” If so, discard the rst three batches of ice

produced. After that the “off-taste” should be gone.

Ice Production Rate

■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches

of ice in a 24-hour period. Allow 3 days to completely ll the

ice container.

■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator

temperatures. See “Using the Controls.” Wait 24 hours

between adjustments.

Remember

■ 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 bin. This

can cause damage to the ice storage bin and the dispenser

mechanism.

■ Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice

storage bin.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

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.

IMPORTANT:

■ 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 avoid

odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods

tightly.

■ For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion

resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of

your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the

following cleaning instructions.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, ammable uids, muriatic acid,

cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers

containing petroleum products on exterior surfaces (doors and

cabinet), plastic parts, interior and door liners, or gaskets. Do not

use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a

mild detergent in warm water.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or re.

3. Clean the exterior surfaces.

Painted metal: Wash painted metal exteriors with a clean,

soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm water.
