To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator from electrical power before connecting a water supply line to the
refrigerator.
A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line to your household water system. DO NOT use a self-piercing type shutoff valve.
Do not reuse compression fitting or use
thread seal tape. A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for
connecting a copper water supply line to the
ice maker inlet valve.
Avoid Property Damage:
Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is recommended for the water supply
line. Water supply tubing made of 1/4 ....
inch plastic is not recommended to be
used. Plastic tubing greatly increases ....
the potential for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not be responsible for
any damage if plastic tubing is used for the supply line.
DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas where temperatures fall below freezing.
Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice maker. [f the ice maker is connected to soft water, ensure
that the softener is maintained and working properly.
Ensure that your water supply line
connections comply with all local plumbing
codes. ....
Before Installing The Water Supply Line,
You Will Need:
Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, fiat-blade screwdriver, and PhillipsTM screwdriver
Access to a household cold water line with water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
A water supply line made of 1/4inch (6 mm) OD, copper or stainless steel tubing. To determine the length of tubing needed,
measure the distance from the ice maker inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator
to your cold water pipe. Then add
approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters), so the refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning (as shown).
Check with your local building authority for recommendations on water lines and
associated materials prior to installing your new refrigerator. Depending on your local/ state building codes, Frigidaire recommends for homes with existing valves its Smart Choice ® water line kit 5305513409 (with a 6 ft. Stainless Steel Water Line) and for homes without an existing valve, Frigidaire
recommends its Smart Choice ® water line kit 5305510264 (with a 20 ft. Copper Water
Line with self-tapping saddle valve). Please refer to www.frigidaire.com/store for more
information.
Page 13
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power source,
2. Place end of water supply line into sink or bucket. Turn ON water supply and flush supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF water supply at shutoff valve.
3. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet and discard cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide brass compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve) onto water supply line. Push water supply line into water valve inlet as far as it will go (1/4 inch/6 mm). Slide ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtJghten. See Figure 1.
If you use stainless steel tubing - The nut and ferrule are already assembled on the tubing. Slide compression nut onto valve inlet and finger tighten compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtJghten. See Figure 2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water supply line (copper tubing only) to rear panel of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about 21/2turns, behind
refrigerator as shown and arrange coils so they do not vibrate or wear against any other surface.
7. Turn ON water supply at shutoff valve and tighten any connections that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power source.

Ideas for storing foods
Fresh food storage
,, Keep the fresh food compartment
between 34° F and 40 ° F with an optimum
temperature of 37° F.
Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling.
Fruits and vegetables
Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for longer time periods.
Wash items and remove excess water.
Wrap any items that have strong odors or high moisture content.
Meat
Wrap raw meat and poultry separately and securely to prevent leaks and
contamination of other foods or surfaces.
Use the dell drawer to store meat/poultry
for short-term storage. Any meat to be
kept longer than two days should be
frozen.
Frozen food storage
Keep the freezer compartment at 0 ° F or lower.
A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least % full.
Packaging foods for freezing
,, To minimize food dehydration and quality
deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags, or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable
freezer wrap prior to freezing.
Do not refreeze meat that has completely
thawed.
Loading the freezer
Prior to grocery shopping, activate
"quick freeze" so that on your return you
can ensure your newly purchased food designated for the freezer will be preserved as quickly as possible.
Activating "quick freeze" also will help
your freezer more efficiently maintain the
selected temperature after placing new purchases with pre-existing frozen foods.
,, Avoid adding too much warm food to the
freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can
raise the temperature of frozen foods.
Leave a space between packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as possible.
Ideas for saving energy
[nstallation
Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers.
Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-
producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.
Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightly.
Temperature settings
,, Refer to the "Controls" section for
procedures on temperature settings.
Food storage
Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or
blocking cold air vents. Doing so causes
the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before
placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts
down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as
soon as possible.
Do not place a hot container directly on a cold shelf. Remember, such an extreme temperature change may damage the glass.

Understanding the sounds you may hear
Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds
normally indicate your refrigerator is operating correctly. Some surfaces on floors, walls, and
kitchen cabinets may make these sounds more noticeable.
The following is a list of major components in your refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:
A Evaporator Refrigerant through the
evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound.
B Evaporator fan You may hear air being
forced through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.
C Defrost heater During defrost cycles,
water dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may
OCCUr.
D Automatic ice maker When ice has
been produced, you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin. Ice maker fan, water valve activation, and refrigerant gas fluid may create sounds from its operation.
E Electronic control & automatic
defrost control These parts can produce
a snapping or clicking sound when turning the cooling system on and off.
F Condenser fan You may hear air being
forced through the condenser.
G Compressor Modern, high-efficiency
compressors run much faster than older
models. The compressor may have a high- pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each
time it opens to fill the ice maker.
I Drain pan (not removable) You may hear
water dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.
J Condenser May create minimal sounds
from forced air.
H Hotorized damper Nay produce a light
humming during operation.
Energy efficient foam in your refrigerator is
During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow in the back wall vents of your freezer
compartment is normal.

Locating the Filters
Your refrigerator is equipped with water filtering system. The water filter system filters
all dispensed drinking water, as well as the water used to produce ice.
Water Filter
The water filter is located at the top right side of the fresh food compartment.
Replacing the Water Filter
In general, you should change the water filter every six months to ensure the highest possible water quality. The Water Filter Status light on the user interface prompts you to replace the filter after a standard amount of water (200 gallons/757 liters for PureSource IJitra TM) has flowed through the system. The water filter status light on this model is not performance tested or certified by NSF.
:if your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time (during moving for example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator.
Ordering Replacement Filters
To order your replacement filters, please visit our online store at www.frigidaire.com/store, by calling toll-free at 877-808-4195, or by visiting the dealer where you purchased your refrigerator, Frigidaire recommends that you order extra filters when you first install your refrigerator, and that you replace your filters at least once every six months.
