If you plan to install custom wood panels, you will need to create the panels yourself or consult a qualified cabinetmaker or carpenter. See dimension drawings for panel specifications.
IMPORTANT: Panels weighing more than recommended may cause damage to your refrigerator.
NOTE: Dimensions shown have a (±)¹⁄ " (1.5 mm) tolerance. Panels that are more than ¹⁄ " (6.35 mm) thick must be routed. If panels are less than ¹⁄ " (6.35 mm) thick, install a filler panel between the door and the decorative panel.

OverlaySeriesCustomPanels
Custom overlay panels allow you to blend the exterior of your refrigerator into the overall kitchen décor and to use custom handles for additional design flexibility.
The custom panels must have backer panels attached in order to mount them to the refrigerator. It is most common to work with three panels, as shown in the following graphic: a decorative overlay panel, a ¹/ " (3.18 mm) spacer panel or spacer strips and a ¹/ " (6.35 mm) backer panel.

Offset Dimension |
In some cases, your cabinet manufacturer may choose to work with one panel routed for the different dimensions. Follow these panel dimension and placement instructions to be sure that the custom overlay panels will fit properly.
IMPORTANT:
■The weight of the refrigerator door overlay panel cannot exceed 50 lbs (23 kg).
■The weight of the freezer drawer overlay panel cannot exceed 30 lbs (13.5 kg).
■The weight of the top grille overlay panel cannot exceed 10 lbs (4.5 kg).
To minimize panel weight, you may use 2" (5.08 cm) spacer strips around the perimeter in place of full-sheet solid spacer panels. The spacer strips must be set in at least 1" (2.54 cm) from the top, bottom and side edges of the backer panel. If you use spacer strips, it is also recommended that you use two 2"
(5.08 cm) strips horizontally centered for added support.
11
NOTE: For the grille and the door panels to be flush, the overlay door panel should be ¹⁄" (6.35 mm) thicker than the overlay grille panel.
■The side panel should be a minimum of ¹⁄" (12 mm) thick to prevent warping.
■If the opening depth is 25" (63.5 cm) or more, you may want to install a support board on the rear wall.

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 you have the proper electrical connection.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15or 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 cord.
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, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, 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.
WaterSupplyRequirements
■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 right-hand side cabinet must be within ¹⁄ "
(12.7 mm) of the rear wall.

■If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for the water line can come through the floor or the back wall. A ¹⁄ " (12.7 mm) hole for plumbing should be drilled 6"
(15.2 cm) to 12" (30.4 cm) from the right-hand side cabinet or panel. On the floor, the hole should be no more than 11"
(28 cm) away from the back wall. On the wall, the hole should be no more than 3" (7.6 cm) up from the floor. See “Connect the Water Supply.”
If this recommended water line location is used, no additional plumbing must be purchased.
■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⁄ " (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄ " (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.
15
Water Pressure
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi (207 - 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 - 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 - 414 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 - 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 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.

ConnecttheWater Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
Connect to Water Line
1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2.Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.
3.Locate a ½" to 1¹⁄ " (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
■Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
■Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4.Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure from the connection on the lower left rear of refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use ¹⁄ " (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.
5.Using a grounded drill, drill a ¹⁄ " hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

6.Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the ¹⁄ " 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, or you may crush the copper tubing.
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.Before attaching copper tubing to the refrigerator place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink and turn on the main water supply. Flush at least 2 qt (1.9 L) of water through the copper tubing until water is clear to get rid of any particles in the water line. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing.
9.Check for leaks around the saddle valve.
