separate 115VAC, 60Hz, 15 amp circuit
and accept a three-prong grounding
plug.
Electrical outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician
to confirm it meets all applicable electrical codes. Failure

Plumbing
Location: The water line should be located in the
area marked “Water” in Fig 1. This area
also extends 10” forward on the floor.
If it is outside this area, it may be
damaged during installation and
prevent the refrigerator from being
installed at the proper depth.
Requirements: The water line must use 1/4” OD
copper, braided stainless steel, or PEX
tubing and have 36” of excess line.
Water Pressure: The water pressure must be between
35-120 psi.
Important: The water line cannot be exposed to
temperatures below freezing.
Connect the water line to the household water supply with
an easily accessible shut-off valve, not a self-piercing
valve. Purge the water line before connecting it to the
refrigerator. This will remove any debris that may be
present.

completely installed. Use two or more people to move
and install refrigerator. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious injury.

not discard the anchor bracket, toe grille, and
associated hardware.

Installation Instructions
Step 2 — Install Anchor Bracket (continued)
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard
Anchor bracket must be installed properly to prevent
refrigerator from tipping. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in death or serious injury.
AVERTISSEMENT
Risque de renversement
Le support d'ancrage doit être installé correctement pour
empêcher le renversement du réfrigérateur. Le non-
respect de ces instructions peut entraîner la mort ou des
blessures graves.
Install the anchor bracket on the back wall of the
enclosure. The notch in the back of the bracket
should be centered in the enclosure (from side to
side). Secure the anchor bracket with at least two
screws spaced far apart, close to the sides of the
bracket. Wood screws and self drilling sheet metal
screws are located in the plastic bag with the
literature. Screws must be securely threaded into
wood or metal studs that are structurally sound and
part of the building structure.
Step 3 — Route Water Line
Locate the household water line as shown below prior
to moving the refrigerator into position. It may be
helpful to tape the water line to the floor to avoid
damaging it as the refrigerator is rolled into position.
