IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor,
household use only.
This appliance is intended to be used in household and
similar applications such as:
Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working
environments.
Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and
other residential type environments.
Bed and breakfast type environments.
Catering and similar non-retail applications.
NOTE: The refrigerator is intended for use in a location
where the temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F
(13°C) to a maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room
temperature range for optimum performance, which
reduces electricity usage and provides superior cooling, is
between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended
that you do not install the refrigerator near a heat source,
such as an oven or radiator.
IMPORTANT:
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Floor must support the refrigerator weight, more
than 600 lbs (272 kg), door panels and contents of
the refrigerator. Flooring under refrigerator must be
at same level as the room. Face of cabinetry must be
plumb.
Location should permit door to open fully. See “Door
Swing Dimensions.”
Location must permit top grille removal. See
“Opening Dimensions.”

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
OPENING DIMENSIONS
IMPORTANT:
The width of the opening (Width A), from side to side,
must be as specified for your model, for at least
2" (5.08 cm) back from the face of the cabinet.
NOTE: If your opening does not meet this
requirement, you will need to make modifications.
A solid soffit or wall cabinet must be installed 84"
(213.4 cm) above the floor. If the solid soffit is higher
than 84" (213.4 cm) or one is not available, then the
refrigerator must be braced.
If anti-tip boards are needed, they must be attached to
the rear wall studs so that there is 84" (213.4 cm) from the
bottom of the anti-tip board to the floor. See “Install AntiTip Boards” for more information.
NOTES:
A clearance of 1/2" (1.3 cm) must be maintained above
the top grille so that the top grille can be removed.
Do not remove the foam gasket from the top of the
compressor cover unless removal is necessary to fit
the unit under a soffit. Removal of the gasket will
cause loss in cooling efficiency.
7
If installing under a solid soffit, after installation raise
the leveling legs so that the gasket is pressed snugly
against the soffit.

A grounded 3 prong electrical outlet should be
located within a specified number of inches from
the right-hand side cabinets or end panel. See the
chart following the graphic for the number of inches
required for your model. For more information, see
“Electrical Requirements.”
The water shutoff should be located in the base
cabinet on either side of the refrigerator or some
other easily accessible area. If the water shutoff valve
is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for the water line
can come through the floor. See “Water Supply
Requirements” for more information.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location,
it is important to make sure that you have the proper
electrical connection.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided.
Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do
not use an extension cord.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at either the plug or
connector end.
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI
(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protected outlet,
nuisance tripping of the power supply may occur,
resulting in loss of cooling. Food quality and flavor may
be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the
condition of the food appears poor, dispose of it.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation or
cleaning, remove the top grille and turn the master power
switch to OFF or disconnect power at the circuit breaker
box.
When you are finished, turn ON the master power switch
or reconnect power at the circuit breaker box. Then reset
the control to the desired setting.

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT:
All installations must meet local plumbing code
requirements.
Connect to potable water supply only.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush
installation if a water shutoff valve is located in the
wall behind the refrigerator.
The water shutoff should be located in the base
cabinet on either side of the refrigerator or some
other easily accessible area. The water supply line,
however, must come up through the floor in the gray
shaded area shown.
6"
(15.2 cm)
WATER PRESSURE
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and
120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water
dispenser and ice maker. If you have questions about your
water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.
REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER SUPPLY
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming
out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet
valve of the refrigerator needs to be between
30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected
to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the
reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of
40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less
than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
Check to see whether the sediment filter in the
reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if
necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system
to refill after heavy usage.
If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further
reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction
with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water
filter cartridge.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a
licensed, qualified plumber.
6"
(15.2 cm)
1"
(2.54 cm)
6"
(15.2 cm)
A 1/2" (12.7 mm) hole for plumbing should be drilled
on the floor at least 6" (15.2 cm) from the right- or lefthand side cabinet and should be no more than
1" (2.54 cm) away from the back wall. See “Connect
the Water Supply.”
The water supply connection is made at the front of
the refrigerator.
If additional tubing is needed, use copper tubing and
check for leaks. Install the copper tubing only in areas
where the household temperatures will remain above
freezing.
Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle
valve which reduces water flow and also clogs more
easily.
NOTE: JennAir® refrigerator dealer has a kit available
with a 1/4" (6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a
union, and copper tubing. Before purchasing, make
sure that a saddle-type valve complies with your local
plumbing codes.
PRODUCT DIMENSIONS
IMPORTANT:
The depth from the front face of the doors to the
back of the refrigerator cabinet is 24" (60.96 cm)
without panels.
The power cord is 84" (213 cm) long.
The water supply connection is made at the bottom
front of the refrigerator.
