Proper Disposal of Your Old
WARNING
Refrigerator
Danger: Risk of child entrapment. 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.
WARNING
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.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Unpack the Refrigerator
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 ngers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
■ Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, ammable
uids, 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.
When Moving Yo ur 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.
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.
3
Location Requirements
WARNING
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 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 xed wall, leave a 2" (5.08 cm) minimum space between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open.
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.

Electrical Requirements
WARNING
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 nal location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualied person. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either the plug or connector end.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only 15 A or 20 A 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 nished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn Cooling ON. See “Using the Control(s).’’
Water Supply Requirements
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 psi and 120 psi (207 kPa and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualied 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 30 psi and 120 psi (207 kPa and 827 kPa). If a reverse osmosis water ltration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 psi to 60 psi (276 kPa to 414 kPa). If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 psi to 60 psi (276 kPa to 414 kPa):
■ Check to see whether the sediment lter in the reverse
osmosis system is blocked. Replace the lter if necessary.
■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to
rell after heavy usage. The tank capacity could be too low to keep up with the requirements of the refrigerator.
■ If your refrigerator has a water lter, it may further reduce
the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water lter. See “Water Filtration System.”
Connect the Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin. IMPORTANT:
■ Connect to potable water supply only.
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.
■ All installations must meet local plumbing code
requirements.
■ Use copper tubing or Whirlpool supply line, Part Number
8212547RP, and check for leaks.
■ Install copper tubing only in areas where the temperatures
will remain above freezing.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
■ Flat-blade screwdriver ■ 1/4" Nut driver
■ 7/16" and 1/2" Open-
end or two adjustable wrenches
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4" (6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water ow and clogs more easily.
Connect to Water Line
Style 1
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3. Locate a 1/2" to 1¼"(1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
■ Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
■ Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure
from the connection on the lower left rear of 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 1/4" (6.35 mm) hole in the cold
water pipe you have selected.

clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4" (6.35 mm) drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws slowly and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut onto
the copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.
8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and
turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing.
Style 2
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the black nylon plug from the gray
water tube on the rear of the refrigerator.
3. Thread the provided nut onto the water valve as shown. NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a
wrench two more turns. Do not overtighten.
6. On models with ice makers, the ice maker is equipped with
a built-in water strainer. If your water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in the 1/4" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
Style 2
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the black nylon plug from the gray
water tube on the rear of the refrigerator.
3. If the gray water tube supplied with the refrigerator is not
long enough, a 1/4" x 1/4" (6.35 mm x 6.35 mm) coupling is needed in order to connect the water tubing to an existing household water line. Thread the provided nut onto the coupling on the end of the copper tubing. NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not overtighten.

IMPORTANT: To comply with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines, fully retract the rollers into the cabinet to lower the refrigerator.
Door Closing
The base grille covers the leveling screws and roller assemblies located at the bottom of the refrigerator cabinet below the freezer drawer. Before making adjustments, remove the base grille and move the refrigerator to its nal location.
1. Remove the base grille. Grasp the grille rmly and pull it toward you.
2. Move the refrigerator to its nal location. NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the
leveling legs off the oor by turning the leveling screws counterclockwise. The front rollers will be touching the oor.
3. So the doors will close easier, use a 1/4" hex driver to turn both leveling screws clockwise. This will raise the front of the refrigerator tilting it slightly downward to the rear. Turn both leveling screws the same amount. NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This makes it easier to turn the screws.
Door Alignment
If the space between the refrigerator doors and freezer drawer looks uneven, you can adjust it using the following instructions:
1. Remove the top hinge cover.
2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a 5/16" socket or
wrench.

rst three batches of ice produced.
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 lter, ush the water system.
Flushing the water dispensing system, forces air from the water line and lter and prepares the water lter for use. Additional ushing 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 paddle for 5 seconds.
2. Release the dispenser paddle for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1
and 2 until water begins to ow.
3. Once water begins to ow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed.
Dispense Water
1. Hold a container under the dispenser spout while pressing

Ice Maker
IMPORTANT: For models with a water lter, after connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water lter, ll and discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water lter for use.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm. To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made, the ice cubes will ll the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
Ice Storage Bin
1. Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.
2. Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker, and push it
toward the back as far as it will go.
3. Lower the arm on the ice maker to the “ON” position. NOTE: It usually takes approximately 24 hours for the ice
maker to begin producing ice. You may notice the ice has an “off-taste.” If so, discard the rst three batches of ice produced. After that the “off-taste” should be gone.
Ice Production Rate
■ The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period. Allow 3 days to completely ll the ice container.
■ To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Control(s).” Wait 24 hours between adjustments.
14
Remember
Foldaway Shelf (on some models)
■ 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.
■ Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin.
This can cause damage to the ice storage bin and the dispenser mechanism.
■ Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice
storage bin.
