These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety mechanisms in this refrigerator
willoperateproperly............
Electrical information
The refrigerator must be plugged into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of me appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptade. The receptacle must be installed inaccordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.
If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorized service
technician to prevent any risk.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock. Performance may be affected if the voltage
varies by 10% or more. Operating the
refrigerator with insufficient power can damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered under your warranty.
Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the refrigerator from being turned off accidentally.
Turning the Freezer and Fresh Food controls to "0" (Mechanical controls) or
"OFF" (Electronic controls) will disable your
refrigerator's cooling system, but does not disconnect the power to the light bulb and other electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator you must unplug
the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
To avoid personal injury or property damage, handle tempered glass shelves
carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden
temperature change.
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone if released to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants may also cause harm to the environment if released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified technician. If you intentionally release refrigerant, you may be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.
ThisUse&CareGuideprovidesgeneral operatinginstructionsforyourmodel.Usethe refrigeratoronlyasinstructedinthisUse&
Care Guide. Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important first steps.
Location
Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct sunlight and away from the range,
dishwasher or other heat sources.
The refrigerator must be installed on a floor
that is level and strong enough to support
a fully loaded refrigerator.
Consider water supply availability for models equipped with an automatic ice
maker. If you do not hook up water to
the refrigerator, remember to turn the ice
maker off.
Do Not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or
rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.
Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation
is essential for the proper operation of your
refrigerator.
The cabinet should be level at the front and rear.
e
The sides should tilt 1/4-inch (6 mm) from front-to-back (to ensure that doors close and seal properly).

To 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. If 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 Ins_lling 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 (6.4
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).
* 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 re-use compression fitting or use
thread seal tape.
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.
To Conne_ 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 (1/4inch / 6A mm). Slide ferrule
(sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT over tighten. 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 over tighten. 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.

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, minimal ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days to fill the ice container.
New plumbing connections may cause the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice made during
the first 24 hours.
Automatic ice makers are also optional accessories that may be installed in most
models at any time. Call your local dealer for information.
Turning your Ice Maker On
After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position.
Turning your Ice Maker Off
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the "up" or OFF position. The ice maker also turns off automatically when the ice container is full.
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the wire signal arm in the ON position.
To ensure proper function for your ice maker,
hook up water supply immediately or turn ice
maker OFF by lifting the wire signal arm until
it clicks and locks in the UP position. If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not
connected, the water valve will make a loud
chattering noise.
ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT
TO EXPECT
The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 80 to 160 minutes.
Do Not place the ice container in your

Understanding the sounds you may hear
Your new, high-effidency 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.
Rigid foam insulation is very energy efficient,
but is not a sound insulator.
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.
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.
During the automatic defrost cycle, you may notice a red glow in the vents on the back
wall of your freezer compartment. This is normal during the defrost cycle.
D Automatic ice maker When ice has
been produced, you will hear ice cubes
falling into the ice bin.
Electronic 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 in the
past. The compressor may have a high-
pitched hum or pulsating sound. Water valve If your refrigerator is
equipped with an automatic ice maker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the water
valve opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.
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.
If the Fresh Food door is left open form more than 5 minutes, an alarm will sound. The alarm will sound for 2 minutes and then stop. If the "Door Ajar" condition remains, the alarm will
repeat every 30 minutes for two intervals. After 15 minutes of a "Door Ajar" Condition, the unit will turn the Fresh Food light off until the door is closed. The door switch in the Fresh Food can be pressed and released to reset the
alarm and light.
Protecting your investment
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains appearance and prevents odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean the freezer and fresh food compartments at least twice a year. When cleaning, take the following
precautions:
Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with bleach to clean stainless steel.
Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
Always unplug the electrical power cord
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments
which can scratch the appliance surface.
Do not remove the serial plate.
Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes,
flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet liners. Do not use paper towels, metallic scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials or strong alkaline
solutions.
If you store or move your refrigerator in freezing temperatures, be sure to completely drain the water supply system. Failure to do so could result in water leaks when the
refrigerator is put back into service. Contact a service representative to perform this
operation.
If you set your temperature controls to turn off cooling, power to lights and other
electrical components will continue until you
Pull the refrigerator straight out to move it. Shifting it from side to side may damage flooring. Be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond the plumbing
connections.
