refrigerator.

■ If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified

person.

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

■ 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.

■ 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.”

■ Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

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 appliances is intended to be used in

household and similar applications such as:

■ Staff kitchen areas in shops, ofce and other working

environments,

■ Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other

residential type environments,

■ Bed and breakfast type environments,

■ Catering and similar non-retail applications.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for 1/2"

(1.25 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for 1"

(2.54 cm) of 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 xed wall,

leave 3

" (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

Before you move your refrigerator into its nal location, it is

important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the

manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualied person.

Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along

its length or at either the plug or connector end.

Recommended Grounding Method

A 115 V, 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 and approved accessories 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 nished,

reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn Cooling

ON. See “Using the Controls.”

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.

3³⁄₄" (9.5 cm)

¹⁄₂" (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

Water Supply Requirements

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

■ 7/16" and 1/2" Open-end or

two adjustable wrenches

■ 1/4" Drill bit

■ Cordless drill

IMPORTANT:

■ Connect to potable water supply only.

■ All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

■ Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle valve

which reduces water ow and clogs more easily.

■ Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing

only in areas where the household temperatures will remain

above freezing.

■ For models with water lters, the disposable water lter

should be replaced at least every 6 months.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 35 and 120

psi (241 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser

and ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure,

call a licensed, qualied 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 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827

kPa).

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 water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than

40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):

■ 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 your refrigerator has a water lter, it may further reduce

the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse

osmosis system. Remove the water lter. See “Water Filtration

System.”

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

qualied plumber

Connect the Water Supply

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

■ Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the

International Plumbing Code and any local codes and

ordinances.

■ The gray water tubing on the back of the refrigerator (which

is used to connect to the household water line) is a PEX

(cross-linked polyethylene) tube. Copper and PEX tubing

connections from the household water line to the refrigerator

are acceptable and will help avoid off-taste or odor in your ice

or water. Check for leaks.

If PEX tubing is used instead of copper, we recommend the

following Whirlpool Part Numbers:

W10505928RP (7 ft [2.14 m] jacketed PEX),

8212547RP (5 ft [1.52 m] PEX), or

W10267701RP (25 ft [7.62 m] PEX).

■ Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain

above freezing.

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

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

damage to the water valve.

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. Find a 1/2" to 1¹⁄

" (12.7 mm to 31.8 mm) vertical cold water

pipe near the refrigerator.

IMPORTANT:

■ Make sure it is a cold water pipe.

■ Horizontal pipe will work, but the following procedure

must be followed: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the

bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This

also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

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

from the connection on the lower right rear of the 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.

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.

A. Cold water pipe

B. Pipe clamp

C. Copper tubing

D. Compression nut

E. Compression sleeve

F. Shutoff valve

G. Packing nut

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 the 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 or

you may crush the copper tubing.

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.

Connect to Refrigerator

1. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Attach the

copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut

and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not

overtighten. Conrm copper tubing is secure by pulling on the

copper tubing.

2. Create a service loop with the copper tubing. Avoid kinks

when coiling the copper tubing. Secure copper tubing to the

refrigerator cabinet with a “P” clamp.

3. Turn on water supply to refrigerator and check for leaks.

Correct any leaks.

Complete the Installation

1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the rst batch of ice.

Discard the rst three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days

to completely ll the ice container.

■ Flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See

“Water and Ice Dispensers.”

■ The ice maker and storage bin are located in the upper left-

hand side of the refrigerator compartment.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

The ice maker has an automatic shutoff. When the ice maker

is ON, sensors will automatically stop ice production when the

storage bin is full. The ice maker will remain set to ON, and ice

production will resume when the bin is no longer full.

To manually turn off the ice maker, press TEMP and FAST COOL

at the same time and hold for 3 seconds until the “Ice Maker

Off” icon lights up. When the ice maker is set to OFF, it will stop

producing ice.

Pressing and holding TEMP and FAST COOL again for 3 seconds

turns on the ice maker and the “Ice Maker Off” icon disappears.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

To Remove the Ice Storage Bin:

1. Hold the base of the storage bin and press the release button.

2. Pull out the storage bin.

To Replace the Ice Storage Bin:

IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to turn the auger driver, behind

the ice bin, counterclockwise to properly align the ice bin with

the auger driver. The ice storage bin must be locked in place for

proper ice dispensing.

1. Slide the ice bin into the guide rails located on either side of

the enclosure.

2. Push the ice bin in until resistance is felt. Raise the front

slightly and push the ice bin in until an audible “click” is heard.

Ice Production Rate

■ Allow 24 hours to produce the rst batch of ice. Discard the

rst three batches of ice produced.

■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches

of ice in a 24-hour period.

■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator

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

between adjustments.

NOTE: Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make

some foods, such as ice cream, harder.

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 bin and dispenser mechanism.

■ Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.

Water and Ice Dispensers

IMPORTANT: After connecting the refrigerator to a water source

or replacing the water lter, ush the water system. Use a sturdy

container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for

5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water

begins to ow. Once water begins to ow, continue depressing

and releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off)

until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed. This will ush

air from the lter and water dispensing system, and prepare the

water lter for use. Additional ushing may be required in some

households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt

out of the dispenser.

NOTES:

■ The dispensing system will not operate when the refrigerator

door is open.

■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill

water.

■ Allow 24 hours to produce the rst batch of ice. Discard the

rst three batches of ice produced.

■ The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn

off automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control

buttons and dispenser levers have not been used for 2

minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the rst press of a

control button will only reactivate the display screen without

changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any

settings can then be made. If no changes are made within 2

minutes, the display will re-enter “sleep” mode.

Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before

dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the

ICE TYPE button.

The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This

may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise

from the ice crusher is normal and pieces of ice may vary in size.

When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed

ice will be dispensed along with the rst cubes.

To Dispense Ice:

1. Make sure the desired type of ice is selected. To switch

between cubed and crushed, press ICE TYPE.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold

the glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall

outside of the glass.

IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to

the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard

will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds

after removing the glass from the lever. The dispenser may

continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.
