Make sure that incoming voltage is the same as unit rating. An electric rating plate specifying voltage, frequency, wattage, amperage, and phase is attached to the product.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified people in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

The installer should leave these instructions with the consumer who should retain them for local inspector’s use and for future reference.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert

symbol and the word “DANGER”or “WARNING”. Thesewordsmean:

DANGER

You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance if injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

WARNING

TIP OVER HAZARD Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not completely installed.

Keep doors closed until refrigerator is completely installed and secured per installation instructions.

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.

Most of the refrigerator’s weight is at the top. Extra care is needed when moving the refrigerator to prevent tipping. Use cardboard shipping material or plywood under refrigerator until it is installed in the operating position to protect floor surface.

It is your responsibility to :

-comply with installation specifications and dimensions -properly install refrigerator

-remove any moldings or decorative panels that prevent the refrigerator from being serviced

-make sure that you have these materials (not provided with your refrigerator), which are necessary for proper installation:

1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing with shutoff valve

6 - #8 x 3” (7.6 cm) wood screws (Longer screws may be required.) 1 - Saddle valve (Do not use self-piercing feature of the valve)

-assure that floor will support refrigerator, door panels and contents (approximately 1200 pounds [540 kg])

-provide a properly grounded electrical outlet

-assure that location will permit appliance doors to open 90o minimum

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Some water may remain in line. Electric drill must be grounded to prevent severe or lethal shock if water is in line and enters drill during use.

Use only 1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing for water line. Do Not install copper tubing in area where temperatures drop below 35oF (1.7oC). Before attaching copper tubing to refrigerator, flush at least 2 quarts (1.9 L) of water through the copper tubing and into a bucket to remove any particles in the water line.

•Viking Range Corporation is not responsible for property damage due to improper installation or water connection. •Connect 1/4” (6mm) flexible copper tubing to household plumbing in compliance with local codes and ordinances. •Length of copper tubing must reach from water supply connection to refrigerator connection with an additional length to facilitate moving the refrigerator out of enclosure for cleaning or service. Tubing should be soft instead of rigid and

ends should be free of burrs.

•Copper tubing route must be above 35oF (1.7oC) to prevent water line from freezing. •Do not use plastic water lines.

•Do not use the self-piercing feature of a saddle valve. The hole made by the piercing lance is too small for the water flow rate required by the ice maker. To use a saddle valve, follow the instructions below located under “To rough in water line” on how to pre-drill a 3/16” (4.5 mm) diameter hole.

•If saddle valve is not used, place a separate shut-off valve in an easily accessible location between water supply and refrigerator. Do not locate shut-off valve behind refrigerator.

•Do not use with reverse osmosis water filtration system. This will void warranty.

•Connect a vertical or horizontal 1/2” (1.2 cm) to 1 1/4” (3.2 cm) COLD water line near refrigerator area.

•Run water line through the floor, back, or side wall. Tubing should lay flat on floor underneath refrigerator. Clamp tubing to wall or floor.

•Water pressure must be greater than 20 psi and less than 120 psi.

To rough in water line:

1.Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.

2.Vertical cold water line: Use grounded electric drill or hand drill to drill 3/16” (4.5 mm) hole in an easily accessible location in water line.

Horizontal cold water line: Use grounded electric drill or hand drill to drill 3/16” (4.5 mm) hole in the TOP of the water line. This will keep sediment from collecting in valve.

3.Position washer over hole in water line. Turn saddle valve handle clockwise to expose piercing lance a maximum of 3/16” (4.5 mm). Align piercing lance over hole in water line. Place both halves of saddle valve bracket against water line. Turn saddle valve handle clockwise until piercing lance enters hole in water line and is firmly seated. The saddle valve is now in the closed position. Tighten packing nut. Evenly and firmly tighten bracket screws so washer will make a water-tight connection. Do not overtighten screws: copper tubing could be crushed.

4.Check that both ends of copper tubing are cut square. Slide compression nut and sleeve onto copper tubing. Insert end of copper tubing completely into valve outlet. Tighten compression nut to outlet with adjustable wrench.

Do not overtighten.

5.Turn on main water supply. Check for leaks. Turn saddle valve handle counterclockwise and run 2 quarts (1.9 L) of water through copper tubing and into a bucket. Turn saddle valve clockwise to shut off water to copper tubing.

6.Route copper tubing to refrigerator area.

7.Leave an additional length of copper tubing coil to facilitate moving the refrigerator out of enclosure for cleaning or service.

8.See page 13 for water connection instructions.

AREA REQUIREMENTS

Verify the following:

•Refrigerator can fit into residence and can be moved around corners and through doorways. •Floors can support refrigerator’s weight plus food weight (approximately 1200 pounds total).

•Rear wall is solid and is able to support two (2) horizontally mounted 2X4s (included) bolted to 2 wall studs. The 2X4 board bolt heads must be flush with 2X4 to prevent obstruction.

•Remove anything attached to rear or side walls that can obstruct refrigerator installation. •Cutout dimensions are accurate.

•Electrical outlet is in correct location. •Water line is in correct location.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. DO NOT remove ground plug.

DO NOT use an adapter.

DO NOT use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in fire or electrical shock.

If codes permit a separate grounding wire to be used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the grounding path is adequate. Do Not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the appliance is properly grounded. Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

It is the customer’s responsibility to: •contact a qualified electrical installer.

•assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or Canadian Electrical Code C22.1-1998 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (or latest edition), and all local codes and ordinances. (115 volt, 60-Hz, 15 amp, fused, electrical supply is required. It is required that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3- prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong, grounding-type wall receptacle. Do not use an extension cord.)

Anti-Tip Requirements

The anti-tip boards should be fastened

into position prior to moving the unit into WARNING the opening.

Note: Additional mounting boards may be required if the refrigerator does not touch the back wall of the enclosure.

To prevent refrigerator from tipping forward, it must be secured in place with a solid soffit or wood block.

TIP OVER HAZARD

Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not completely installed.

Keep doors closed until refrigerator is completely installed and secured per installation instructions. Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.
