Installation .............................................................
Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for ship-
ment. Remove and discard shelf packing clips (if used)
located just above each shelf where they hook onto the
frame. To remove plastic clips wiggle the clips sideways
and pull straight out.
Location
Allow for a free flow of air through the front base
grille.
Install the refrigerator where the room temperature
will not go below 55 °E With temperatures below 55 °,
the refrigerator will not run frequently enough to
maintain proper temperature in the freezer.
Allow a minimum 1/2" clearance on the sides, top
and back for ease of installation. If the refrigerator is
placed with the door hinge side against a wall, you
may want to allow additional space so the door can be
opened wider.
Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or hard-
wood floors so as not to mark or otherwise damage
the flooring. A piece of plywood, a rug or other mate-.
rial should be used to protect the floor while posi-
tioning the unit.
Leveling
To enhance appearance and to maintain optimal perfor-
mance, the refrigerator must be level. "four refrigerator
has wheels which can be adjusted for leveling:
• Remove the lower hinge covers (see fig. I). To do
this, grasp each cover near the hinge and apply pres-
sure. The attachment tabs will snap out, allowing
removal of the covers.
• Adjust the wheels with a screwdriver (see fig. 2).
• To lock the cabinet in place, turn down both leveling/lock
feet, located near the from wheels (see fig 3).
• Replace the hinge covers.
• If the floor is not level and it is necessary to raise the
rear of the cabinet, we suggest rolling the rear wheels
onto a piece of plywood or other shim material.

Energy Saving 77ps
• Locate the refrigerator away from heat producing
appliances such as the range or dishwasher, heat vents
and direct sunlight.
• Level the refrigerator and do not block ventilation
around the front grille.
Keep the freezer ful! to near capacity so less cold air
will escape during door openings. When the freezer is
less than two-thirds full, place milk cartons half full
of water in the freezer.
• Let hot dishes cool slightly before putting into the
refrigerator or freezer.
• Cover liquids.
• Wipe moisture from the outside of containers before
placing them into the refrigerator.
• Avoid opening the doors too often.

g Temperature Controls ...........................................
Your refrigerator has Maytag's Dual CooV freshness design to control fl'esh and frozen food temperatures. The con-
trols are located at the top front of the fresh food compartment,
To adjust the controls, move the slide to the left or right as desired.
Initial Duat CooF Control Settings
The refrigerator and freezer controls have settings
from 1 (warmest) to 9 (coldest). Initially set both con-
trois on 5.
Let the refrigerator run at least 8-12 hours before
adding food.
Dual CooF Control Guide
Refrigerator: Move Control to:
,m,,,
Too Warm Next higher setting.
l_o Cold Next lower setting.
Freezer: Move Control to:
Too Warm Next higher setting.
Too Cold Next lower setting.
Turn refrigerator Off
Move the freezer control to OFE
NOTE: Setting the freezer control to OFF stops cooling
in BOTH compartments. It does not shut off power to
the refrigerator.
Warm Cabinet Surfaces
At times, the front of the refrigerator cabinet may be
warm to the touch. This is a normal occurrence that
helps prevent moisture from condensing on the cabinet.
The condition will be more noticeable when you first
start the refrigerator, during hot weather and after exces-
sive or lengthy door openings.
No Defrosting
Your refrigerator is designed to defrost automatically.
Note: During the automatic defrost cycle, you may
notice a red glow/reflection in the vents on the back
wall of the freezer compartment and you may hear the
sound of water droplets coming into contact with the
defrost heater. This is normal during the defrost
cycle,
Adjusting the Dual CooF Controls
24 hours after adding food, you may decide that one
or both compartments should be colder or warmer, If
so, adjust the control(s) as indicated in the table above.
Except when starting the refrigerator, do not change
either control more than one number at a time.
• Allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize before
resetting.
• Changing either control will have some effect on the
temperature of the other compartment,

Dispenser Models
Automatic Ice Maker
After your refrigerator has been connected to the water
supply, move the wire lever arm into the down position.
This will start its operation. The ice maker will fill with
water when the freezer reaches the proper temperature. It
may be 8 to 12 hours before the ice maker furnishes any
usable ice cubes.
Discard all the cubes from the first two or three batches
made. These initial ice cubes may be irregularly shaped,
discolored, or contain impurities from the new water
supply piping.
/
When the ice cubes are ejected it is normal for several
cubes to be joined together at the ends. They can easily
be broken apart. The ice maker will continue to make ice
until the supply of ice cubes raises the wire lever arm,
shutting the ice maker off.
To manually stop the operation of the ice maker, move
the wire lever arm into the up (off) position.
Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of the
ice maker.
• buzzing of the water valve
• running of the water as the tray fills
• rattling of the ice cubes falling into an empty ice bin.
If the ice is not used frequently, the ice cubes will become
cloudy, shrink, stick together and taste stale. Empty the
ice storage bin periodically and wash it in lukewarm
water. Be sure to dry the bin before replacing it.
To check the ice level or gain access to the ice bin, lift
open the door on the ice bin.
To remove the bin, first turn off the ice maker. This is
done by opening the door on the ice bin and moving the
ice maker wire lever up to the "off' position. Then reach
under the bin front and pull down on the back edge. After
it snaps free, pull the bin straight forward. To replace the
ice bin, align the bottom rails to the corresponding shelf
grooves and push it straight back until it stops and
latches. Make sure the tabs at the back of the bin that
turn the spiral auger are positioned between the prongs
from the auger motor. Turn the ice maker on by low-
ering the wire arm.
Beverages and loods should not be placed in the ice
storage bin for quick chilling. These items can block the
wire lever arm, causing the ice maker to malfunction.
For Your Safety
Do not place fingers or tmands on the automatic ice
making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
Under certain rare circumstances, ice cubes may be
discolored, usually appearing with a green-bluish
hue. The cause of this unusual discoloration is a
combination of factors such as certain characteristics
of local waters, household plumbing and the accu-
mulation of copper salts in an inactive water supply
line which feeds the ice maker.
Contimaed consumption of such discolored ice cubes
may be injurious to health. If such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes and contact your
local water unity or water treatment c_mpany.

pad for one to two minutes to bleed the air from the
water line. Discard the first five to six glasses of water
dispensed. This will insure pure and fresh water for
drinking.
Ice Dispensing "tips
- Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though cubed
ice was selected. This happens occasionally when a few
cubes axe accidentally channeled into the crusher.
Likewise, when changing from crushed ice to cubes,
some crushed ice may be dispensed. This may also
happen if irregular sized cubes or ice chips are in the
storage bin.
• If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes
may clump together and may need to be broken apart
or discarded.
• A slight pause may be noticed when dispensing
crushed ice. This is normal because the ice is being
channeled to the crusher. Crushed ice pieces will vary
in size and shape.
• Do not add ice to the storage bin which was not pro-
duced by your ice maker, it may not crush and!or dis-
pense properly.
• Avoid operating the ice dispenser continuously lbr
more than five minutes. Remove large quantities from
the bin by hand.
° Avoid dispensing ice directly into fine china or deli-
cate crystal. The pressure of pressing against the actu-
ator pad and the ice dropping into the container can
cause cracking or chipping of delicate items.
CRUSHED CUBE WATER
Water from the dispenser is not as cold as ice water. For
colder water, simply add ice before dispensing the
water. The first glass or two of water dispensed each
time may be warmer than subsequent glasses. A full
glass of water will be cooler than a partial glass. To pre-
vent splashing, fill the glass with ice before adding
water.
NOTE: When using the ice dispenser for the first time,
discard tlhe first two or three dozen cubes. When using

sarily in your water. The feed water connection must
conform to applicable plumbing codes.
When the system detects either 12 months of usage, or
the filtering of 416 gallons of water (whichever comes
first _,the CHANGE FILTER indicator light will illumi-
nate. This indicates that the water filter should be
changed (see page 12) and the light reset.
To reset the CHANGE FILTER light: Press and hold
the LIGHT and LOCK pads until the CHANGE
FILTER light blinks (approx. 3 seconds). The control is
now reset _br 12 months or another 416 gallons.
Note: The Water Filter Change Reminder will
count down 12 months if the filter bypass is in place
(see page 12).
Notes:
• Leave the refrigerator door open while removing
and installing filters or plugs; this will prevent water
from flowing through the system and running into
the fresh food compartment, As an added precau-
tion, turn off the ice maker by moving the wire lever
ann into the up (OFF) position.
• A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause
water to temporarily spurt from the dispenser.

Condenser
A clean condenser means more efficient refrigerator
operation. Thanks to the unique design of the No
Clean TM condenser there's no longer a need for routine
condenser cleaning in normal home usage surroundings.
Some operating environments may be particularly dusty
or greasy. In these situations, the condenser can be peri-
odically cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.

Food Storage Tips ................................. ................
Fresh Food Storage
• The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should
be kept between 34°F and 40°F with an optimum
temperature of 37°F. To check the temperature,
place an appliance thermometer in a glass of water
and place in the center of the refrigerator. Cheek
after 24 hours. If the temperature is above 40°F
adjust the controls as explained on page 3.
• Temperatures measured elsewhere in the refriger-
ator may vary from crisper readout temperatures
(select models) due to location of crisper thermostat.
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This
reduces the circulation of air around the :food and
results in uneven cooling.
Fruit and Vegetables
• Store in the crisper drawers to help preserve the fruit
and vegetable quality tbr longer time periods.
• So_ fruits and vegetables before storage and use
bruised or soft items first. Discard those showing
signs of dee_:
• Always wrap odorous foods such as onions aud cah-
bage so the odor does not transfer to other ibods.
Frozen Food Storage
The freezer compartment of a refrigerator should be
kept at 0°F or lower. To check the temperature,
place an appliance thermometer between the frozen
packages and check a[}er 24 hours. If the tempera-
ture is above 0°F, adjust the control as described on
page .3.
• A freezer operates more efficiently when it is at least
two-thirds full.
Packaging Foods for Freezing
To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration
use almninum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or air-
tight containers. Force as much air out of the pack-
ages as possible and be sure they are tightly sealed.
Trapped air can cause the food to dry out, change
color and develop an off-flavor (freezer bum).
• Overwrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable
freezer wrap prior to freezing.
• Do no[ refreeze meat that has completely
thawed.
Loading the Freezer
• While vegetables need a certain amount of moisture
to remain fresh, too much moisture can shorten
storage times (espeeiMly lettuce). Drain vegetables
well before storing.
Meat and Cheese
• Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely,
so leakage and contamination of other foods or sur-
t:aces does not occur.
• Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of
hard cheeses (S_4ss, Cheddar, Parmesan). Cut off at
least an inch around and below the moldy area. Keep
your knife or instrument out of the mold itself. The
remaining cheese x_41!be safe and flavorful to eat. Do
NOT try to save indMdual cheese sliees, soft cheese,
cottage cheese, cream, sour cream or yogurt when
mold appears.
Dairy Food
• Most dairy foods snch as milk, yogurt, sour cream and
cottage cheese have freshness dates on their cartons
for appropriate length of storage. Store these foods in
the original carton and refrigerate immediately a}ler
purchasing and after each use.
Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at
one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of
freezing and can raise the temperature of frozen
fbods.
Leave space between the packages so cold air can
circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly" as
possible.
Avoid storing hard-to-freeze fbods such as ice cream
and orange juice on the freezer door shelves. These
fbods are best stored in the freezer interior where
the temperalure varies Tess with door openings,
