REFRIGERATOR SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic precautions:

mPlug into a grounded 3 prong outlet, m Use nonflammable cleaner.

mDo not remove ground prong.

mDo not use an adapter.

mDo not use an extension cord.

mDisconnect power before servicing.

mReplace all parts and panels before operating.

mRemove doors from your old refrigerator.

m Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline,

away from refrigerator.

m Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

m Disconnect power before installing ice maker (on ice maker

kit ready models only).

m Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water (on some

models).

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator

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.

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.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

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 fingers. Wipe with warm water

and dry.

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."

When Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator

for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor.

Always pulI the refrigerator straight out when moving it.

Do not wiggle or "walk" the refrigerator when trying to move

it, as floor damage could occur.

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."

_mportant information to know about glass she_ves

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.

For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter

into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal Glass

shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when

removing them to avoid impact from dropping.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to 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.

NOTE: 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).

Failuretofollowthese}nstructionscanresult }n 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.

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed

here.

IMPORTANT:

• 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: Fiat-blade screwdriver, 7/16"and 1/2"open-end

wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, 1/4"nut driver and drill bit,

hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded).

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 flow and clogs more

easily.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and

120 psi (207 - 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser

and ice maker. If you 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 - 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 - 414 kPa).

If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than

40 to 60 psi (276 - 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 cartridge, it may further

reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a

reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter cartridge.

See "Water Filtration System."

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

qualified plumber.

Remove the Base Grille:

1. Open both doors.

2. Place hands along the ends of the grille. Push in on the top of

the base grille and pull up on the bottom.

NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille

after cleaning.

Replace the Base Grille:

1. Open both doors.

2. Line up the grille support tabs with the metal clips.

3. Push the grille firmly to snap it into place.

Your refrigerator has two front adjustable rollers -- one on the

right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or if

you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's

tilt using the instructions below.

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1. Move the refrigerator into its final position.

2. The two leveling screws are part of the front roller assemblies

which are at the base of the refrigerator on either side. See

Graphic 7.

Use a hex-head socket wrench to adjust the leveling screws.

Turn the leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the

refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that

side. It may take several turns of the leveling screws to adjust

the tilt of the refrigerator. See Graphic 7.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws and

rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.

4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they

close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly

more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It

may take several more turns, and you should turn both

leveling screws the same amount.

5. Replace the base grille.

NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille.

Read all directions before you begin.

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

is connected, turn the ice maker OFR

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 11/4"(3.18 cm) vertical cold water

pipe near the refrigerator.

IMPORTANT:

• 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 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.

Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4"(6.35 mm) hole in the cold

water pipe you have selected.

Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn't

make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be

concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard

surfaces, such as the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the

sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds

and what may be making them.

• If your refrigerator is equipped with an ice maker, you will hear

a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to fill the ice

maker for each cycle.

Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently, to keep

your food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize

energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may

cause your refrigerator to run longer than your old one. You

may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the

compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.

You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating air through

the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The fan speed

may increase as you open the doors or add warm food.

Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant, the

water line, or items stored on top of the refrigerator.

Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle

may cause a sizzling sound.

As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to

the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.

Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a

popping noise.

You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the

condenser fan.

You may hear water running into the drain pan during the

defrost cycle.

REFRIGERATOR USE

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to

flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the

freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator

section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as

shown.

Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,

bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented and

the temperature controls will not function properly.

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 prevent

odor transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

Your model may have Slide Controls, Electronic Controls or

Digital Controls.

IMPORTANT (All Controls):

• The Refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment

temperature. The Freezer control adjusts the freezer

compartment temperature.

• Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you put

food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled

completely, your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer controls to a

lower (colder) setting will not cool the compartments any

faster.

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

freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not

blocked before adjusting the controls.

• The preset settings should be correct for normal household

usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as

cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

Slide Controls (on some models)

For your convenience, your controls are preset at the factory.

When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are

still preset to the "mid-settings" as shown.

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water°

Faimureto do so can resumt in cuts,

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the

following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed

ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, a

special AUTO mode, or a lock option to avoid unintentional

dispensing.

The Ice Dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer. When

the dispenser lever is pressed:

• A trap door opens in a chute between the dispenser and the

ice bin. Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.

• When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door closes

and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing system will not

operate when the freezer door is open.

Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before

dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer. The button

controls are designed for easy use and cleaning.

Style 1 Style 2

ICE

CRUSH CUBE

Crushed Cubed

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before they are 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, afew ounces of

crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

To Dispense Ice:

1. Press button for the desired type of ice.

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.

Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: The first few batches of ice may have an off-flavor

from new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away, Also, take

large amounts of ice from the ice bin, not through the

dispenser.

The Water Dispenser

If you did not flush the water system when the refrigerator was

first installed, press the water dispenser bar with asturdy glass or

jar until you draw and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) or

approximately 6 to 7 minutes of water after water begins

dispensing. It will take 3 to 4 minutes for the water to begin

dispensing. The water you draw and discard cleans the system

and helps clear air from the lines. Allow several hours for the

refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

IMPORTANT: Depending on your model, the small removable

tray at the bottom of the dispenser is designed to catch small

spills and allow for easy cleaning. There is no drain in the tray.

The tray can be removed from the dispenser and carried to the

sink to be emptied or cleaned.

To Dispense Water:

dispenser mechanism.

2. Wash ice bin with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry

thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Remember

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days

to completely fill ice container.

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.

• Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid

impurities that may be flushed out of the system.

• It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.

They will break apart easily.

The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of •

the water supplied to your ice maker.

For Style I ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up or

down.

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

storage bin.

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. 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 Ibs. of food per cubic foot

[907 to 1,360 g per 28 L] of freezer space). Leave enough space

in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Leave enough

room for the door to close tightly.

For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a

freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammabme cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, expmosion, or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.

However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent

odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,

crispers, etc.

3. 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.

• Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning

waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers

containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior

and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels,

scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can

scratch or damage materials.

• To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a

mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt

[26 g to 0.95 L] of water).

4. Determine whether your refrigerator exterior is painted metal,

brushed aluminum or stainless steel and choose the

appropriate cleaning method.

Painted metal: Wash exteriors with a clean sponge or soft

cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive

or harsh cleaners, or cleaners designed for stainless steel.

Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection

against damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance

wax (or auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax

plastic parts.

Brushed aluminum: Wash with a clean sponge or soft cloth

and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or

harsh cleaners, or cleaners designed for stainless steel. Dry

thoroughly with a soft cloth.

To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new

and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that

you use the manufacturer's approved Stainless Steel

Cleaner & Polish. To order the cleaner, see the

"Accessories" section.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only?

Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into

contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,

dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental contact does

occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in

warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

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. See "Base Grille" graphic or

"Base Grille" section.

• Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft 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.
