6IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
CAUTION
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of minor or moderate injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the product or
property when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Installation
Do not install the refrigerator where there may be a danger of the unit falling.
The refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions.
This appliance does not require changes in installation or use based on altitude.
Operation
This appliance is intended to be used only in domestic and similar applications.
Do not scratch the refrigerator with a sharp object or use a detergent that contains alcohol, a flammable
liquid or an abrasive when removing any tape or adhesive from the refrigerator. Remove adhesive
residue by wiping it off with your thumb or dish detergent.
Do not peel off the model or serial number label or the technical information on the rear surface of the
refrigerator.
Putting food in the refrigerator before it has cooled could cause the food to spoil, or a bad odor to
remain inside the refrigerator.
Keep hands and tools out of the ice compartment door and dispenser chute. Failure to do so may result
in damage or personal injury.
Keep the ice compartment door closed tightly. If the ice compartment door is not closed tightly, the cold
air in the ice bin will freeze food in the refrigerator compartment. This could also cause the icemaker to
stop producing ice.
Storing cans or other items in the ice bin will damage the icemaker.
Store only ice in the ice bin. Do not store ice scooping tools or other items in the ice bin.
Ice may overflow when removing or assembling the ice bin. Remove any ice in the bin area before
assembling the ice bin.
Make sure that the ice bin is assembled in the correct orientation front to back.
Models with two ice bins in the freezer:
- The Craft Ice bin is located on the left and the Mini Cubed Ice bin is located on the right. Do not
change the positions of the two ice bins.
- Do not store Craft Ice in the Mini Cubed Ice bin or Mini Cubed Ice in the Craft Ice bin.
This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is combustible.
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts
of the refrigerating circuit are damaged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or
cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of
ignition and air out the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.
In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating
circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the
amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 10.8 square feet (1 square meter) in size for
every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your
particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an
appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping
position. Reinstall shelves according to your
individual storage needs.
Choosing the Proper
Location
Water
The refrigerator must be located where a water
supply can be connected for the automatic
icemaker.
NOTE
The water pressure must be 20 - 120 psi (138 -
827 kPa). If the refrigerator is installed in an area
with low water pressure (below 20 psi or 138
kPa), you can install a booster pump to
compensate for the low pressure.
Electricity
Use an individual, grounded outlet:115 Volts, 60
Hz, AC, 15 amps minimum.
WARNING
Do not overload house wiring and cause a fire
hazard by plugging in multiple appliances in the
same outlet with the refrigerator.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not install
the refrigerator in a wet or damp area.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be
installed and leveled on a solidly constructed floor.

Connecting Refrigerator to
Water Supply
This feature is only available on some models.
Before Beginning
These instructions assume you have an existing
water supply connection for the refrigerator. If
necessary, call a qualified plumber to install a
water supply line for the refrigerator.
Turn the icemaker OFF if the refrigerator will be
used before the water line is connected.
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas
where the ambient temperatures fall below
freezing.
WARNING
Connect to potable water supply only.
CAUTION
To prevent burns and product damage, only
connect the refrigerator water line to a cold
water supply.
Wear eye protection during installation to
prevent injury.
Water Pressure
You will need a cold water supply.
Water Pressure
Models with water filter:
- 20 - 120 psi (138 - 827 kPa)
Where reverse osmosis water filtration
system is connected to a cold water supply:
- 40 - 60 psi minimum to reverse osmosis
system (2.8 kgf/cm2 - 4.2 kgf/cm2, or less than
2 - 3 seconds to fill a cup of 7 oz capacity)
If the water pressure from the reverse osmosis
system is less than 20 psi or 138 kPa or 1.4 kgf/cm2
(takes more than 4 seconds to fill a cup of 7 oz or
198 cc capacity):
Check to see if 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 the water pressure remains low, call a
licensed, qualified plumber.
All installations must be in accordance with local
plumbing code requirements.
Supplies Needed
Copper or PEX Tubing, ¼ in. outer diameter, to
connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be
sure both ends of the tubing are cut square. To
determine how much tubing you need, measure
the distance from the water valve on the back of
the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then,
add 8 feet (2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient
extra tubing (about 8 feet [2.4 m] coiled into 3
turns of about 10 in. [25 cm] diameter) to allow
the refrigerator to move out from the wall after
installation.
½ in. or adjustable wrench.
Flat-blade and Phillips screwdrivers.
Two ¼ in. outer diameter compression nuts
and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the copper
tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator
water valve. If you are using a PEX water line kit,
it may already have the required fittings at either
end.
If your existing copper water line has a flared
fitting at the end, purchase an adapter (available

at plumbing supply stores) to connect the water
line to the refrigerator OR cut off the flared
fitting with a tube cutter and use a compression
fitting.
NOTE
The hookup line cannot be white, plastic tubing.
Licensed plumbers must use only copper tubing
(NDA tubing #49595 or #49599) or Cross Link
Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.
Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8
ft. coiled into three turns of about 10 in.
diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out
from the wall after installation.
Connecting Water Line to
Refrigerator
1 Connect the tubing to the shutoff valve.
Place the compression nut and ferrule
(sleeve) onto the end of the copper tubing
and connect it to the shutoff valve. If you
are using PEX, the tubing may already have
the required fittings at either end. Make
sure the tubing is fully inserted into the
valve. Tighten the compression nut
securely.

2 Flush out the tubing into a bucket.
Flush out the tubing coming from the home
water supply until the water is clear. Shut
the water off at the water valve after about
one quart of water has been flushed
through the tubing.
NOTE
Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure that the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
3 Remove the flexible plastic cap from the water
valve on the refrigerator.
4 Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown. If you
are using a PEX connection kit, it may already
have the required fittings.
5 Insert the end of the copper or PEX tubing
into the connection as far as possible. While
holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.
