1/4" FRAMED PANEL DIMENSIONS
If you choose to install framed panels, they must be
cut to the dimensions shown. The panels will slide
into the frame on the door and grille.
Non-Dispenser Models
If the custom panel is less than 1/4" thick and it fits
loosely in the door frame it can be backed up with
a piece of filler material or foam tape to improve
the fit.
IMPORTANT NOTE - Dispenser Models
The refi'igerator is supplied with two dispenser trims,
one for framed panels and one for overlay panels.
• If the panel is less than 0.250" thick a noticeable
gap may be created around the dispenser trim.
Foam tape may be applied on the door to improve
the fit.

3/4" OVERLAY PANEL DIMENSIONS
For a more custom appearance, overlay panels may be
installed on trimmed models. The overlay panel must
be secured to a 1/4" thick backer panel which slides
into the trim. A spacer panel 0.10" thick must be placed
between the overlay and backer panel.
Assemble the panels with glue and screws.
• Center the spacer panel on the backer panel, left to
right and top to bottom. Secure the panels with glue.
• Center the spacer and backer panel on the overlay
panel and secure with glue and screws. Screws must be
countersunk into the backer panel.
IMPORTANT NOTE - Dispenser Models
The refrigerator is supplied with two dispenser trims,
one for framed panels and one for overlay panels.
The overlay dispenser trim is designed to fit a total
panel thickness of 1.100".
• If the panel is less than 1.100" a noticeable gap may
be created around the dispenser trim.
• If the panel is more than 1.100" the dispenser trim
cannot be secured to the doog

result in the required 1.100" panel thickness.
When a raised panel design is to be used, a custom

FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be
placed on a level surface of hard material that is at
the same height as the rest of the flooring. This
surface should be strong enough to support a fully
loaded refrigerator, or approximately 700 lbs.
NOTE: Protect the finish of the flooring. Cut a large
section of the cardboard carton and place under the
refrigerator where you are working.
GROUNDING THE REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT - (Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a quali-
fied electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.

• A cold water supply is required for automatic ice-
maker operation. The water pressure must be be-
tween 40 and 120 p.s.i.
• Route 1/4" OD copper tubing between house cold
water line and the water connection location.
• Copper tubing should be long enough to extend to
the front of the refrigerator. Allow enough tubing to
accommodate bend leading into the water line
connection.
Shut off tile main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the
line of ware1:
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water
valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet.
The shut-off valve should be located where it will be
easily accessible.
NOTE: It is best to install the valve into a vertical water
pipe. If you install the valve into a horizontal water
pipe, make the connection at the top or side, to
avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.
• Drill a 1/4" hole in the water pipe.
• Fasten the shut-off valve to the pipe with pipe clamp.
• Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer
begins to swell. Do not over tighten.
• Place a compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the
end of the tubing and connect it to the shut-off valve.
Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve
and ferrule is tightened.
• Turn on the main water supply and flush debris. Run
about a quart of water through the tubing into a
bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off valve.

All models have 4-point leveling. The front is sup-
ported by leveling legs, the rear is supported by
adjustable wheels. Both are accessible from the front
of the refrigerator.
• To level the back of the refrigerator, turn the 7/16"
hex nut located above the front wheels. Turn
clockwise to raise or counterclockwise to lower the
refrigerator.
• For front leveling, use a 1-1/4" open-end wrench.
• Adjust height of refrigerator to match installation
cutout opening 83-1/2" to 84q/2". The refrigerator
should be level and plumb with cabinetry.
_STEP 7] ADJUST DOOR SWING
NOTE: This refrigerator has a 2-position door stop.
