SAVETHESEINSTRUCTIONS

Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator

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." Ifyou are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a t/2" (1.25 cm) space at the top and 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 2t/2'' (6.3 cm) minimum on the hinge side (some models require more) to allow for the door to swing open.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install the

refrigerator ina location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).

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 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 the refrigerator to OFR Depending on

your model, turn the freezer control to the word OFF, or press the

Freezer down arrow touch pad until a dash (-) appears in both the Freezer and Refrigerator displays as shown. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished,

reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the temperature controls to the desired setting. See "Using the

Controls."

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed

here.

TOOLS NEEDED:

• Flat-blade screwdriver • ¼" Nut driver

• 7Ae"and 1/2"Open-end or two • ¼" Drill bit adjustable wrenches

• Cordless drill

IM PORTANT:

• All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

• Do not use a piercing-type or 3Ae"(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

• Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing only in areas where the household temperatures will remain

above freezing.

• For models with water filters, the disposable water filter should be replaced at least every 6 months.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure of 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. 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).

If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 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 usage.

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.

Read all directions before you begin. IMPORTANT: Ifyou turn the refrigerator on before the water line is

connected, turn the ice maker OFR

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. Find a 1/2"to 11/4'' (12.7 mm to 31.8 mm) vertical cold water pipe near the refrigerator.

IM PORTANT:

• Make sure it is a cold water pipe.

Horizontal pipe will work, but the following procedure must be followed: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure from the connection on the rear of the refrigerator to the water

pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4"(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

5. Using a cordless drill, drill a V4"hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.
