fire, or electrical shock.

WARNING

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.

Electrical Requirements

Water Supply Requirements

A cold water supply with water pressure between 35 and 120 psi (241 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.

NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow of water from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes could be hollow or irregular shaped.

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 35 and 120 psi (241 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).

■ 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 use. The tank capacity could be too small to keep up with the requirements of the refrigerator.

NOTE: Faucet-mounted reverse osmosis systems are not recommended.

■ 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. See “Water Filtration System.”

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended Grounding Method

A 115 volt, 60 Hz, AC only 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator and approved accessories be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn OFF Cooling, and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you have finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn ON Cooling. See “Using the Control(s).”

Connect the Water Supply

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

■ Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the

International Plumbing Code and any local codes and ordinances.

■ The gray water tubing on the back of the refrigerator (which is

used to connect to the household water line) is a PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) tube. Copper and PEX tubing connections from the household water line to the refrigerator are acceptable, and will help avoid off-taste or odor in your ice or water. Check for leaks.

If PEX tubing is used instead of copper, we recommend the following Part Numbers: W10505928RP (7 ft [2.14 m] jacketed PEX), 8212547RP (5 ft [1.52 m] PEX), or W10267701RP (25 ft [7.62 m] PEX).

■ Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain

above freezing.

Tools Needed:

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

■ Flat-blade screwdriver

■ ⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches

■ ¹⁄₄" nut driver

NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs easier.

dispensed. This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.

■ When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of

crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

Water Crushed Cubed

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT:

■ Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a

fresh supply.

■ If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be

caused by low water pressure.

■ With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of

water. If 1 cup (237 mL) of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement.

■ If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup

(237 mL) of water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements” and “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.

To Dispense Water (Standard):

1. Select WATER.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the dispenser paddle. NOTE: While dispensing water and for 3 seconds after

IMPORTANT:

■ If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular shape, it could

be because of low water pressure. See “Water Supply Requirements.”

■ Ice travels from the ice storage bin through the dispenser

chute to the dispenser. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”

To Clean the Ice Dispenser Chute:

Humidity causes ice to naturally clump together. Ice particles can build up until the ice dispenser chute becomes blocked.

If ice is not dispensed regularly, it may be necessary to empty the ice storage bin and clean the ice delivery chute, the ice storage bin and the area beneath the storage bin every 2 weeks.

■ Remove the ice clogging the storage bin and delivery chute,

using a plastic utensil if necessary.

■ Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage

bin using a warm, damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.

Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin

(on some models)

IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice, flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See “Water Dispenser.”

■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the

first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the storage bin to fill completely following installation.

■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the

water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.

■ If the ice in the storage bin clumps together, break up ice

using a plastic utensil and discard. Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice. This can cause damage to the ice bin and the dispenser mechanism.

Style 1 - Smooth Door

IMPORTANT: Damage to smooth finish due to improper use of

cleaning products, or using non-recommended cleaning products, is not covered under the warranty. Sharp or blunt instruments will mar the finish.

DO USE DO NOT USE

✔ Soft, clean cloth ✘ Abrasive cloths

✘ Paper towels or newsprint ✘ Steel-wool pads

✔ Warm, soapy water ✘ Abrasive powders or liquids

✘ Ammonia ✘ Citrus-based cleaners ✘ Acidic or vinegar-based

cleaners

✘ Oven cleaners

a stainless steel cleaner designed for appliances. To order the cleaner, see “Accessories.”

NOTES:

■ If unintentional contact does occur, clean plastic part with a

sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

■ Just because a cleaner is a liquid does not mean it is

nonabrasive. Many liquid cleansers formulated to be gentle on tile and smooth surfaces still damage stainless steel.

■ Citric acid permanently discolors stainless steel. To avoid

damaging the finish of your stainless steel refrigerator:

Do not allow these substances to remain on the finish

✘ Mustard ✘ Citrus-based sauces ✘ Tom a to jui ce ✘ Citrus-based products ✘ Marinara sauce

✘ Stainless steel cleaner is for

stainless steel parts only! Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish to come into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces, dispenser covers or door gaskets.

Interior Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Refrigerator shelves with under-shelf, LED lighting

are not dishwasher safe.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets.

3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Condenser Cleaning

Vacation and Moving Care

Vacations

If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While You’re Away:

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, and is

connected to the household water supply, turn off the water supply to the refrigerator. Property damage can occur if the water supply is not turned off.

3. If you have an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker. NOTE: Depending on your model, raise the wire shutoff arm to

OFF (up) position, or press the switch to OFF.

4. Empty the ice bin.

There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove the base grille.

3. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the

open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the condenser.

4. Replace the base grille when finished.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Lights

The lights in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments are LEDs which do not need to be replaced. If the lights do not illuminate when the door or drawer is opened, call for assistance or service. In the U.S.A., call 1-800-253-1301. In Canada call

1-800-807-6777.

If You Choose to Turn Off the Refrigerator Before You Leave:

1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

■ Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

■ When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or press the switch to OFF, depending on your model.

3. Turn off the Temperature control(s). See “Using the Control(s).”

4. Clean refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.

5. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop

them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up.

Moving

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move.

1. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

■ Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

■ Disconnect the water line from the back of the refrigerator.

■ When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or press the switch to OFF, depending on your model.

2. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food in dry ice.

3. Empty the ice bin.

4. Turn off the Temperature control(s). See “Using the Control(s).”

5. Unplug refrigerator.

6. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.

7. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them

together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move.

8. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so it rolls more easily OR raise the leveling screws so they don't scrape the floor. See “Adjust the Door(s)” or “Door Closing and Door Alignment.”

9. Tape the doors closed and tape the power cord to the back of the refrigerator.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to the “Installation Instructions” section for preparation instructions. Also, if your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, remember to reconnect the water supply to the refrigerator.
