The refrigerator must be plugged into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz.,
AC-only e_ectric out_et. The power cord of the 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
receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with local codes
and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Do not use an extension
cord or adapter p_ug.
If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by
the manufacturer, service technician or a qualified
person 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 outlet controlled by a wall
switch or pull cord to prevent the refrigerator from being turned off
accidentally,
Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interruptor (GFI) circuit.

The automatic ice & water dispenser on your refrigerator requires a permanent
water supply to function correctly. During installation, you (or a service
professional) establish this water supply by connecting a copper tube from your
household water system to a valve at the rear of the refrigerator.
You may have already followed the directions in the tnstaflation Instructions to
connect the water supply. This information is repeated here for future reference if
you need to relocate your refrigerator.
Whatyou will need:
* Access to a cold water line with pressure of 20-100 psi.
, Copper tubing with ¼-inch (6.4mm) OD. Length for this tubing is the distance
from the rear of the refrigerator to your household water supply line plus 7
feet (2.1 meters).
, A shut-off valve for the connection between your household water line and
the refrigerator supply line.
Do not use a self-piercing shut-off valve.
A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for the water supply connection at the
rear of your refrigerator.
Supply
Toconnectthewatersupplyto therearof yourrefrigerator:

Ensure that the refrigerator is not plugged in.
2
Flush the supply line until water is clear by placing the end of the copper tube
in a sink or bucket and opening the shut-off valve.

To ensure reliable food storage, allow your refrigerator and freezer to operate with
the doors closed for 8 to 12 hours before placing food inside. During this cooling
period, you do not need to adjust the controls, which are preset at the factory.
Your refrigerator comes with a state-of4he-art electronic digital control system. The
system's control panel is located at the top of the the fresh food compartment.
DYNAMIC COOLING
To adjust the temperature to a higher or lower setting, press the Up or Down
Arrow button closest to the display. The first time you press the button, the display
shows the last setting you entered. Each press of the button after that increments
the setting by one degree.
The display shows your new setting momentarily, then changes back to the current
temperature. (Refer to page 13 for more about temperature settings.)
FRJDGE
The two digital displays on the left half of the control panel
indicate the current temperatures of your freezer and fresh
food compartments.
