Electrical Requirements
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 be provided. Use an outlet that
cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension
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.
cord.
Water Supply Requirements
■ All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
■ The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on
either side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible
area. The right-hand side is recommended. The access hole
through the cabinet must be within ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) of the rear wall.
NOTE: If the water shutoff valve is in the back wall behind the
refrigerator, it must be at an angle so that the tube is not kinked
when the refrigerator is pushed into its final location.
NOTE: Flooring under refrigerator must be at same level as the
room. Face of cabinetry must be plumb.

the water line can come through the floor. A ¹⁄₂" (12.7
mm) hole
for plumbing should be drilled at least 6" (15.2 cm) from the
right-hand or left-hand side cabinet or panel. On the floor, the
hole should be no more than 1" (2.54 cm) away from the back
wall. See “Connect the Water Supply.”
■ 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 clogs more easily.
NOTE: Your 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 a saddle-type
valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
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
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
to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
40
■ 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 cartridge, 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.

clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the ¹⁄₄" (6.35
mm)
drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the
pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp
screws slowly and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal.
Do not overtighten.
IMPORTANT: Before attaching the tubing to shutoff valve, flush the
main water supply line to remove particles and air in the water line.
Allow enough flow so that water becomes clear. Flushing the water
line may help avoid filters and/or water valves from becoming
clogged.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the
copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the
outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut
onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten the
clamp or the sleeve. This will crush the copper tubing.
8. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper
tubing.
9. Connect the flexible, codes-approved water supply line to the
water shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto the
shutoff valve.
10. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoff
valve ON.
11. Check for leaks around the saddle valve. Tighten any nuts or
connections (including connections at the valve) that leak.
Connect to Refrigerator
5. Connect the 7 ft (2.13 m) flexible codes-approved water

Level and Align Refrigerator
1. Set control switch at top of cabinet to the OFF position.
2. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Move Refrigerator to Final Location
IMPORTANT: To avoid floor damage, make sure levelers are raised
(not touching floor) and refrigerator is on rollers before moving.
1. Place top of cardboard carton or plywood under refrigerator.
Remove dolly.
2. Do not remove film or cover.
3. Move the refrigerator straight back and evenly into the
opening. Be sure that the refrigerator side trims are not
interfering with the door opening. Also, be sure that the water
tubing is not kinked and the power supply cord is on top of the
refrigerator.
IMPORTANT: All four leveling legs must contact the floor to
support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator. Rollers are
for moving refrigerator and not for permanent support.
After moving the refrigerator to its final location:
1. Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts clockwise
to extend the legs to the floor as shown. The rollers should be
off the floor.
A. Rear leveling bolt
B. Front leveling bolt
2. Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the refrigerator
from left to right and front to back so that the refrigerator
is level and aligned with the cabinetry. The cabinetry surface
must be plumb for the ideal fit of the refrigerator side trim.
