ELECTRICAL iNFORMATION
• The refrigerator must be plugged into its own dedicated
115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only electric 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
qualified electrician. Do not use an extension cord or
adapter plug.
• 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.

WATERDISPENSER
Your refrigerator includes
an automatic water
dispenser on the front of
the refrigerator door. The
dispenser is designed to
accommodate containers
up to 71/2inches high.
DISPENSING WATER
To operate the water
dispenser, press a
drinking glass against 3enser
the dispensing button. Drip Tray Lock
Hold the glass as far up
as possible, ensuring that the water dispensing spout is inside
the lip of the glass.
To stop dispensing water, pull the glass away from the
dispensing button. Dispensed water is not cold. For colder
water, first add ice to your drinking glass.
DRIPTRAY
The drip tray located at the base of the dispenser catches
small spills and allows them to evaporate. This tray is
removable for easy cleaning.
DISPENSER LOCK
The water dispenser includes a switch that allows you to
disable the water dispenser. You can use this lock to prevent
accidental spills, such as those caused by children pressing
the dispensing button without a glass. The switch is located
below the locked/unlocked symbols on the dispenser face
plate.

HOWTO PRIMETHE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
The water tank, located inside the refrigerator door,
automatically fills as water is dispensed.
To Prime The Water Supply System:
1. Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a drinking
glass against the water dispenser button.
2. Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the
dispenser. There will be noticeable spurts and sputters as
the system pushes air out through the system and
dispensing spout. This is normal. This may take about 11/2
minutes.
iCE MAKER
If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a
sufficient supply of ice for normal use. During the initial startup
of your refrigerator, no 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, itwill 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.
Dispenser
Lock
TURNINGYOUR 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.

PureSource TM*iCE AND WATER FILTER (some models)
Order new filter cartridges through the dealer where you bought the refrigerator, contact the
Electrolux Solutions Hotline at 1-800=944-9044, or go to our web site at www.frigidaire.com, it
might be good to order some filter cartridges when you first install your refrigerator. Be sure to
ask for the RG=100 PureSource TM*replacement cartridge.
System Startup:
Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not use ice and water dispenser while installing filter. The filter
cartridge has already been installed in the filter housing at the factory. Refer to the How to Prime the Water Supply System
section to properly fill the system with water.

The PureSource TM * NGRG-
2000 Ice and Water Filter
System with the RG-100
cartridge is tested and
certified by NSF International,
the nationally recognized and respected,
not for profit, certification organization for
public health safety. The PureSource TM*
system is tested and certified to ANSI/NSF
Standard 42. See performance data sheet
for specifications. This system should not
be used on water that is microbiologically
unsafe or with water of unknown quality
unless the water has been adequately
disinfected before or after traveling through
the filtration system.
• Rated Capacity - 400 gallons
• Rated service flow - .5 GPM
• Maximum Rated Pressure - 100 PSI
• Maximum Operating Temp. - 100° F
Changing the Filter:
Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the water filter every
6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water quality. Ice jams in
the ice maker and/or hollow ice cubes (partially frozen cubes with water
inside), may also be a sign that your water filter needs changing, if the filter has
been in a refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during moving for
example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator. The dispenser
system will also operate without filtration (with filter cartridge removed).
To change filter:
It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter.
1. Set ice maker wire signal arm to the OFF (up) position. Turn dispenser lock to
the locked position.
2. Hold filter cup firmly, and unscrew towards left (Some water could leak out as
you remove cup. This is normal.). Filter cartridge should come down with cup.
If cartridge remains in housing, pull down gently, while twisting filter back and
forth.
3. Rinse out cup under running water.
4. The large o-ring that seals the filter system sets in the o-ring groove
down inside the cup. Should the o-ring fall out during filter cartridge
replacement, simply place it back in the groove prior to screwing the cup
back in place. If the o-ring becomes damaged, you will need to order one
from the Electrolux Solutions Hotline.
5. Discard old filter cartridge.
6. Remove new filter cartridge from packaging and place in cup. The end
with the small o-ring should be up, out of the cup.
7. Screw cup, with filter, back onto housing. Do Not Use Wrench To Reinstall
Cup. Filter cartridge will self-align as cup is tightened. Be sure cup is
completely tightened with PureSource TM logo facing outward. Do Not
Tighten Past Stop.
8. Set ice maker wire signal arm to the ON (down) position.
9. Check for leaks. Open refrigerator door. Wipe any water droplets from the
filter cup. Unlock the dispenser lock. Fill a glass with water. If there is a leak,
unscrew filter cup, and reinsert the filter cartridge. Check placement of large
O-ring. Reinstall filter cup, making certain it is tightened completely.
10. To prime filter system and purge air from water line, continue flushing the
system for approximately 3 minutes to assure that the purest water possible is
stored in the water tank. There will be noticeable spurts and sputters as the
system pushes air out through the system and out the dispensing spout. This
is normal.

UNDERSTANDINGTHE SOUNDSYOU MAY HEAR
Your new high-efficiency refrigerator may make unfamiliar
sounds. These are all normal sounds and soon will become
familiar to you. They also indicate your refrigerator is operating
as designed. Hard surfaces, such as vinyl or wood floors,
walls, and kitchen cabinets may make sounds more
noticeable. Listed below are descriptions of some of the most
common sounds you may hear, and what is causing them.
D. Automatic Ice Maker

faster than older models. The compressor may have a
high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H. 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.
L Drain Pan (Nonremovable)
You may hear water running into the drain pan during
the defrost cycle. The drain pan will be located on top
of the compressor for air-cooled condensers (black coils
on back of refrigerator).
J. Condenser Coils (Fan-cooled models only)
A. Evaporator
The flow of 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.
REPLACJNGTHE FREEZER UGHT BULB (SOME
MODELS)
1. Unplug refrigerator.
2. Wear gloves as protection against possible broken glass.
3. Unsnap light shield.
4. Unscrew and replace old bulb with an appliance bulb of
