REFRIGERATORSAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are 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 potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

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

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic precautions:

• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

• Do not remove ground prong.

• Do not use an adapter.

• Do not use an extension cord.

• Disconnect power before servicing.

• Replace all parts and panels before operating.

• Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

• Use nonflammable cleaner.

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

• Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

• Disconnect power before installing ice maker (on ice maker

kit ready models only).

• Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water (on some

models).

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ProperDisposal ofYourOldRefrigerator

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.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

• Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.

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 packaging materials. 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 the "Refrigerator Safety"
section.

When Moving Your Refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator

for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor.
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.

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.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter

into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass
shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid impact from 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 1/2"

(1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your
refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2" (5.08 cm) minimum on

each side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to
swing open. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra
space at the back for the water line connections.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).

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 control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or
Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and then

disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you
are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and
reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control

depending on the model) to the desired setting.

with the Chilled Door Bin feature.

Chilled Door Bin Control

The chilled door bin control is located on the left-hand side of the

refrigerator compartment.

A. Door chill control

Turn the control clockwise (right) to reduce the flow of cold air
to the bin and make it less cold.

Turn the control counterclockwise (left) to increase the flow of
cold air to the bin and make it colder.

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT:

• The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.

• After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system by dispensing water into a sturdy container until
you draw and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water, or for
approximately 5 minutes after the water begins dispensing.

The flushing process cleans the water system and clears air
from the lines. As the air is cleared from the lines, water may
spurt out of the dispenser.

• Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.

• Dispense enough water every week to maintain afresh supply.

To Dispense Water:

1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever.

2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

The Ice Dispenser

The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is
open. Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer
when the dispenser lever is pressed.

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed ice,

a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a lock
option to avoid unintentional dispensing.

NOTE: Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice.
Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer.

For crushed ice, 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.
When changing from crush to cube, a few ounces of crushed ice
will be dispensed along with the first cubes.

To Dispense Ice:

1. Press the button to select the desired type of ice.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.

IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the
lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will

not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

The Dispenser Light

Style 1: The dispenser light can be turned on by pressing the ON

button.
Style 2: When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically

turn the light on. Ifyou want the light to be on continuously, you

may choose either ON or NIGHT LIGHT.
ON: Press the LIGHT button to turn the dispenser light on.

NIGHT LIGHT: Press the LIGHT button a second time to select

the Night Light. The dispenser light will automatically adjust to

become brighter as the room brightens, dimmer as the room
darkens.

OFF: Press the LIGHT button a third time to turn the dispenser
light off.

The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be

changed. If it appears that your dispenser lights are not working,
check to be sure that the light sensor is not blocked (in Night Light
mode). See "Troubleshooting" for more information.

The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product, to

the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the

dispenser levers. The ice and water dispensers will not work.
Style 1: Press the LOCK button to lock the dispenser. Press the

UNLOCK button to unlock the dispenser.
Style 2: Press and hold the LOCK OUT button to lock the

dispenser. Press and hold the LOCK OUT button a second time to
unlock the dispenser.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

The ON/OFF switch is located on the top right-hand side of the
freezer compartment.

To turn on the ice maker, slide the control to the ON (left) position.
To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the OFF

(right) position.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker

sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will
remain in the ON (left) position.

REMEMBER:

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.

• 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 asoftened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.

• Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin or
bucket. This can cause damage to the ice container and the

dispenser mechanism.

• Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage
bin.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

1. Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press
the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the
OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The
sensor cover ("flipper door") on the left wall of the freezer

stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or
the storage bin is removed.

2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make
sure it is securely in place.

NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe
or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or

after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be
used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.

Water Filter Status Light (on some models)

The filter status light will help you know when to change your
water filter. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells
you that it is almost time to change the filter. It is recommended
that you replace the filter when the status light changes to red OR

water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably.

After changing the filter, reset the filter status light by pressing the
button. The status light will change from red to green when the

system is reset.

Non-indicator Water Filter (on some models)

If your refrigerator does not have the status light, you should
change the water filter every 6 months depending upon your

usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker
decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the

water filter more often.

Changing the Water Filter

1. Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.

2. Pull the filter straight out.

3. Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter.
IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your

refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.

4. Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and
turn the cap until it snaps into place.

NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water
will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the

base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.

5. Remove the protective covers from the O-rings.

6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop
back out when the filter is fully engaged.

7. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."

REFRIGERATORCARE

Explosion Hazard

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

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent
odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent

odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:
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. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh

cleaning tools.

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.

3.

4.

Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

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:

• Removethe base grille.

• 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.

• Replace the base grille when finished.

Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace the
bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage. The dispenser
light requires a heavy duty 10-watt bulb. All other lights require a

40-watt bulb. Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove light shield when applicable.
NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and

liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.

3. Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size,
shape and wattage.

4. Replace light shield when applicable.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Trythe solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

The refrigerator isn't cooling

• Are the temperature controls set at the mid-settings? The
controls are preset at the factory to the correct mid-setting.

After connecting power, wait 1 hour before checking
temperature.

NOTE: Adjusting the controls to coldest setting will not cool either
compartment more quickly.

The lights do not work

• Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.

• Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See
"Changing the Light Bulbs."

• Is the dispenser light set to ON? The dispenser light will
operate only when the levers are pressed. Ifyou want the
dispenser light to stay on continuously, set the dispenser light

to ON, or NIGHT LIGHT. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."

• Does the freezer and ice bin or bucket need to be cleaned?

• Has food in the freezer or refrigerator been wrapped properly?

• Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur}? A filter
may need to be installed to remove the minerals.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? Gray or
dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water filtration

system needs additional flushing.

The ice dispenser will not operate properly

Check the following:

• Is the freezer door closed completely?

• Is the ice storage bin installed correctly?

• Is there ice in the storage bin?

• Has the ice frozen in the storage bin?

• Is ice stuck in the delivery chute?

• Has the wrong ice been added to the storage bin? Use only
cubes produced by the current ice maker.

• Has the ice melted around the auger (metal spiral} in the
ice bucket? Dump the ice cubes and clean the ice storage

bin.

• Is the ice dispenser stalling while dispensing "crushed"
ice? Change the ice button from "crushed" to "cubed." If

cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the button for
"crushed" ice and begin dispensing again.

• Has the dispenser arm been held in too long? Ice will stop
dispensing when the arm is held in too long. Wait 3 minutes

for dispenser motor to reset before using again.

The water dispenser will not operate properly

Check the following:

• Isthe water shutoff valve not turned on, incorrectly installed or
clogged?

• Is the water line connected at the source?

• Is there a kink in the home water source line?

• Has the water system not filled? The water system needs to
be filled the first time it is used.

• Is the refrigerator connected to a cold water line with
water pressure of at least 30 psi? The water pressure to the
home determines the flow from the dispenser.

• Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The filter
may be clogged or incorrectly installed.

Water or ice is leaking from the dispenser

Check the following:

• Is the glass not being held under the dispenser long enough?

• Is an ice cube stuck in the chute and holding the trap door
open?

The dispenser water is not cool enough

NOTE: Water from the dispenser is chilled to only 50°F (10°C).

• Has the refrigerator been newly installed or a large
amount of water recently dispensed? Allow 24 hours for the
refrigerator to cool completely.

• Has water not been recently dispensed? The first glass of
water may not be cool. Discard the first glass of water.
