WARNING
Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage compartments of the
appliance unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.
Proper Disposal of your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation are
not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned appliances are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for “just a few days”.
If you are getting rid of your old unit,
please follow the instructions below to
help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check
with your utility company or visit
energystar.gov/recycle for more information on recycling your old appliance.

may not easily climb inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a
qualified service technician.
IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old unit 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 appliance, 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.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
13
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can
cause death or severe personal injury,
disconnect the unit from electrical power source before connecting a water
supply line to the appliance.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• Use Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing for the water supply line.
Frigidaire does not recommend water supply tubing made of ¼" plastic.
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 your water supply line connections
comply with all local plumbing codes.
Before Installing The Water Supply Line,
You Will Need:
• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench,
flat-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" (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� (2.1 m), so the refrigerator can be
moved out for cleaning.
• A shuto valve to connect the water
supply line to your household water
system. DO NOT use a self-piercing
type shuto 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.
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,
we recommend for homes with existing
valves its Smart Choice® water line kit
5304490728 (with a 6�Stainless Steel
Water Line) and for homes without an
existing valve, we recommend Smart
Choice® water line kit 5304490717 (with
a 20�copper water line with self-tapping saddle valve). Please refer to
Frigidaire.com for more information.
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice
Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect the refrigerator from
electrical power source.
2. Place the end of the water supply
line into a sink or bucket. Turn ON
the water supply and flush the supply
line until the water is clear. Turn OFF
the water supply at the shuto valve.
3. Remove the plastic cap from the water valve inlet and discard the cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide the
brass compression nut, and then
the ferrule (sleeve) onto the water
supply line. Push the water supply
line into the water valve inlet as far
as it will go (¼"/6.4 mm). Slide the
ferrule (sleeve) into the valve inlet
and finger tighten the compression
nut onto the valve. Tighten another
half turn with a wrench; DO NOT
overtighten. See Figure 1.

Understanding the Sounds you
may Hear
Your new, high-eciency unit may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds
normally indicate your appliance is operating correctly. Some surfaces on floors,
walls, and kitchen cabinets may make
these sounds more noticeable.
Following is a list of major components
in your unit 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 be-
ing 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 Condenser fan You may hear air be-
ing forced through the condenser.
E Water valve Makes a buzzing sound
each time it opens to fill the ice maker.
F Drain pan (not removable) You may
hear water dripping into the drain
pan during the defrost cycle.
G Condenser May create minimal
sounds from forced air.
H Motorized damper May produce in-
termittent humming during operation.
I Ice Maker When ice has been pro-
duced, you will hear ice cubes falling
into the ice bin.
NOTE
Energy ecient 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.
Compressor
Modern, high-eciency compressors run
much faster than previous models. The
compressor may have a noticeable hum or
pulsating sound during operation.
