ProperDisposalofYourOldRefrigerator
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous
- even if they will sit for "just a few days." If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
• Takeoff the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
\
important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,
EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.
INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Remove the Packaging
• Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning
on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap
over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water
and dry.
• Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For
more information, see "Refrigerator Safety."
• Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside
of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions
in "Refrigerator Care."
important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
When Moving Your Refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for
cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with
cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull
the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or
"walk" the refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor
damage could occur.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor, household
use only.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a 1/2"
(1.25 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for a 1"
(2.54 cm) space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an
ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line
connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall,
leave a 33/4'' (9.5 cm) minimum space between the refrigerator
and wall to allow the door to swing open.
8
NOTE: This 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.

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. Ifyou 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.
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 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 Cooling OFF, and then disconnect the
refrigerator from the electrical source. When you have finished,
reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn
Cooling ON. See "Using the Control(s)."
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 inyour
ice or water. Check for leaks.
If PEX tubing is used instead of copper, we recommend the
following Whirlpool Part Numbers:
W10505928RP (7 ft [2.14 m] jacketed PEX),
8212547RP (5 ft [1.52 m] PEX), or
W10267701 RP (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/le"and W' open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
• _/4"nut driver
NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or 3/le" (4.76 mm) saddle valve
which reduces water flow and clogs easier.

Remove the Handles
The base grille covers the adjustable brake feet and roller
assemblies located at the bottom of the refrigerator below the
freezer drawer. Before making any adjustments, remove the base
grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.
Tools Needed: 1/4"hex nut driver
Tools Provided: 1/8"hex key wrench
1. Remove the base grille. Using both hands, grasp the grille
firmly and pull it toward you. Open the freezer drawer to
access the brake feet.
NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the brake
feet by turning them counterclockwise. The front rollers will
be touching the floor.
2. Move the refrigerator to its final location.
3. Using the 1/4"hex nut driver, lower the brake feet. Turn them
clockwise, until the rollers are off the floor and both brake feet
are snug against the floor. This keeps the refrigerator from
rolling forward when opening the refrigerator doors or freezer
drawer.
IMPORTANT: If you need to make further adjustments
involving the brake feet, you must turn both brake feet the
same amount to keep the refrigerator level.
4. Make sure the doors close easily. If you are satisfied with the
door opening and closing, skip the next section and go to
"Align the Doors." If, however, the doors do not close easily
or the doors pop open, adjust the tilt.
To Adjust the Cabinet Tilt:
• Open the freezer drawer. Use a 1/4"hex nut driver to turn
both brake feet clockwise the same amount. This will
raise the front of the refrigerator. It may take several turns
to allow the doors to close easier.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This
makes it easier to turn them.

Viewing and Adjusting Temperature Set Points
For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls are set to the recommended set points at the factory.
When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the temperature
controls are still set to the recommended set points. The
recommended set points are 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator and
0°F (-18°C) for the freezer.
IMPORTANT:
• Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the set points to a colder than

first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the
storage bin to fill completely following installation.
The dispensing system will not operate when either
refrigerator door or the freezer drawer is open.
Flush the Water System
Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser
to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or
replacing the water filter, flush the water system.
Flushing the water dispensing system, forces air from the water
line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. Additional
flushing may be required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water
dispenser pad for 5 seconds.
2. Release the dispenser pad for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1 and
2 until water begins to flow.
3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total
of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed.
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.
To check water pressure:
With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup of water. If
1 cup 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 of
water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than
recommended. See "Water Supply Requirements" and
"Troubleshooting" for suggestions.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin. To turn off the ice
maker, see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
The dispenser may continue to make noise and ice may continue
to dispense for several seconds after releasing the dispenser
button or pad.
IMPORTANT: If the ice cubes are hollow or have an irregular
shape, it could be because of low water pressure. See "Water
Supply Requirements."
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.
19
• If necessary, remove the ice clogging the storage bin and
delivery chute, using a plastic utensil.
• Clean the ice delivery chute and the bottom of the ice storage
bin using a warm, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Dispensing
IMPORTANT:
• Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so water or ice
will fall into the glass.
• You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the button or pad
to activate the dispenser. Pressing hard will not make water or
ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
Press SELECT to toggle through the following choices in a
continuous loop. The icons on the display indicate your selection.
• Water (default) - Dispenses water
• Crushed Ice - Dispenses crushed ice
NOTE: Cubes are crushed before being 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.
• Cubed Ice- Dispenses cubed ice.
NOTE: When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces
of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

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.
• Do not store anything in the ice storage bin.

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
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.
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.
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.
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.
22
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.
