Transport Unpackaged Refrigerator To Site
By now, you have already removed your refrigerator's shipping carton. You may still need to use a hand truck to move it through close spaces or entrances.
If the refrigerator is larger than an entrance, consider _,o options:
Remove the entrance door if one exists.
Remove the refrigerator doors (see how in your Use & Care Guide).
When using a hand truck:
Load refrigerator from side of cabinet only.
Do not run retaining straps over handles.
Do not over-tighten retaining straps.
Never use refrigerator handles to move the refrigerator.
Remove tape from doors only after unit is in place.
Shifting the refrigerator from side to side may damage flooring.
Connect Water Supply
What you will need:
o
Access to a cold water line with pressure of 30-100 psi.
o
Copper tubing with 1/4-inch (6.4ram) OD. Length for this tubing is the distance from the rear of the refrigerator to your household water supply line plus 7 feet (2.1 meters).
A shut-off valve for the connection between your household water line and the refrigerator supply line. Do not use a self-piercing shut-off valve.
A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for the water supply connection at the rear of your refrigerator.
To avoid property damage:
Use copper tubing for the wafer supply llne
(pla_c tubing is more likely to leak).
Ensure water supply complies with local
plumbing codes.
To conned the wa_er supply fe the rear of your refrlgerafot: \\ Plastic Water steel

Place In Permanent Position
If possible, use a hand truck to position the refrigerator directly in front of its cabinet enclosure. Be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond its water supply (copper tubing) connections.
Plug in the power cord, and push the refrigerator straight back into place.
" Shifting the refrigerator from side to
side may damage flooring.
If you are installing your refrigerator without connecting it
to a water supply, make sure the ice maker's power switch
is turned Off (see the Use & Care Guide for more details).
Do not block the toe grille on the lower front of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation is essential for proper operation.
Level Refrigerator & Adjust Doors (if necessary)
Guidelines for final positioning of your refrigerator:
" All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on
the floor.
The cabinet should be level at the front and rear.
The sides should tilt 1/4-inch (6 ram) from front-to-
back (to ensure that doors close and seal properly).
Doors should align with each other and be level.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1. Remove the toe grille (Figure 1).
2. Use a flat-blade screwdriver or 3/8 inch socket wrench to raise or lower the front rollers (Figure 2).
3. Use adjustable wrench to adjust leveling screws. Lower the leveling screws on each side clockwise until they contact the floor (Figure 3).
Raise the front of the refrigerat ...... gh
so the d ..... lose freely when opened halfway. The refrigerator should slope 1/4
inch to 1/2 inch from front-to-back. Then level the refrigerator f .... ida-to-side.
Failure to do so will result in injury.
4. Some models are equipped with an anti-tip bracket (Figure 4). Lower it clockwise until it contacts the floor.
