CAUTION

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT indicates installation, operation or maintenance information which is important but not hazard-related.

Child Safety

Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after the refrigerator is unpacked. Children should never use these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers,

and can quickly cause suffocation.

Proper Disposal of your Refrigerator or Freezer

Risk of child entrapment

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Grounding type wall receptacle

Power cord with 3-prong grounded plug

Do not, under any circumstances, cut, remove, or bypass the grounding prong.

Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/ Freezers

We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for more information on recycling your old refrigerator.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator/freezer:

• Remove doors.

• Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.

• Have refrigerant removed by

a qualied

service technician.

IMPORTANT

CFC/HCFC Disposal

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs

or HCFCs (chlorouorocarbons or hydrochlorouorocarbons). 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 qualied technician. If

you intentionally release refrigerant, you may

be subject to nes and imprisonment under

provisions of environmental legislation.

• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on

the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly,

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 insufcient 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.

IMPORTANT

Pressing and holding the On/Off button for three seconds, located on the left side of the temperature control panel 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.

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

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 qualied

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.

CAUTION

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.

This Use & Care Guide provides general installation and operating instructions for your model. We recommend using a service or kitchen contracting professional to install your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the refrigerator, follow these important

rst steps.

Location

• Choose a place that is near a grounded, non-GFCI, 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 oor that is level and strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator.

• Consider water supply availability for

models equipped with an automatic ice

maker.

Installation

CAUTION

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. Sufcient air circulation

is essential for the proper operation of your refrigerator.

• Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing and electrical connections:

Sides & Top 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)

NOTE



If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge side against a wall, you may have to allow additional space so the door can be opened wider.

Door opening

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy access to a counter when removing food. For best use of refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator should be in a position where both can be fully opened.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

WARNING

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 tting or use thread seal tape.

• A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting a copper water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve.

CAUTION

To Avoid Property Damage:

• Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is recommended for the water supply line. Water supply tubing made of ¼ 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.

IMPORTANT

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, at-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 ¼ inch (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).

NOTE



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.

for cleaning.)

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

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 ush

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 (¼ inch/6 mm). Slide ferrule

(sleeve) into valve inlet and nger tighten

compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. 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 nger tighten compression

nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. 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 2½ turns, 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.

AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER (select models)

Ice maker operation & care

After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It

can completely ll an ice bin in about three

days.

When using the ice maker for the rst time and

in order for the ice maker to work properly, it is

necessary to clear air from water lter tubing.

Once ice maker begins making ice, allow the

bucket to ll completely, then discard the rst TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will take at least two days to completely ll the bucket on

regular ice making mode or 1½ days on fast ice mode.

The ice maker produces approximately four pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

IMPORTANT

Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker’s wire signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s

ll valve may make a loud chattering noise

when it attempts to operate without water.

Turning the ice maker on and off

Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice maker’s wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift the wire signal arm to turn the ice maker OFF and lower the wire signal arm to turn it ON.

• The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:

- Motor running

- Ice dropping into ice bin

- Water valve opening or closing

- Running water

• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an

odd avor. Empty the ice bin as explained

below.

Quick Ice Function

Your refrigerator is equipped with a Quick Ice

Function, that increases ice production. This function terminates automatically.

Cleaning the ice maker

CAUTION

If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened, be sure the softener is properly maintained. Chemicals from a water softener can damage the ice maker.

Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, especially prior to vacation or moving.

1 Turn off the ice maker. 2 Remove the ice bin. 3 Empty and carefully clean the ice bin

with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clean water.

4 Allow the ice bin to dry completely before

replacing in the freezer. 5 Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on. Remove and empty the ice bin if:

• An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and freeze together.

Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or clean as explained above.

Wire

Signal Arm

Ice maker tips

• If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the water supply is turned off, turn off the ice maker by lifting wire signal arm.

CAUTION

NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This could damage the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.

To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before replacing the ice bin, make sure it is completely dry.

STORAGE FEATURES

CAUTION

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. Allow the glass shelves to stabilize to room temperature before cleaning. Do not wash in dishwasher.

STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY

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 deli 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 efciently when it is at least ⅔ 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-avor (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 efciently 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

Installation

• 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 heatproducing 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

efciently.

• 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.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS AND SIGHTS

Understanding the sounds you may hear

Your new, high-efciency refrigerator may

introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate your refrigerator is operating

correctly. Some surfaces on oors, 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

uid 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-efciency

compressors run much faster than older models. The compressor may have a highpitched hum or pulsating sound.

H Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each

time it opens to ll 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.

M Motorized damper May produce a light

humming during operation.

NOTE



Energy efcient foam in your refrigerator is

not a sound insulator.

NOTE



During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow in the back wall vents of your freezer compartment is normal.
