Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.7 ■ The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on either side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible area. If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for the water line can come through the floor. See “Water Supply Requirements” for more information. Electrical Requirements 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. IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protected outlet, nuisance tripping of the power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Food quality and flavor may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the condition of the food appears poor, dispose of it. NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, remove the top grille and turn the master power switch to OFF or disconnect power at the circuit breaker box. When you are finished, turn ON the master power switch or reconnect power at the circuit breaker box. Then reset the control to the desired setting. Water Supply Requirements IMPORTANT: ■ All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements. ■ There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush installation if a water shutoff valve is located in the wall behind the refrigerator. ■ The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on either side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible area. The water supply line, however, must come up through the floor in the gray shaded area shown. Model Width A (as shown above) Dimension B (as shown above)

WARNING 1"(2.54 cm) 6"(15.2 cm)6"(15.2 cm)6"(15.2 cm)8 ■ A ½" (12.7 mm) hole for plumbing should be drilled on the floor at least 6" (15.2 cm) from the right or left hand side cabinet and should be no more than 1" (2.54 cm) away from the back wall. See “Connect the Water Supply.” ■ The water supply connection is made at the front of the refrigerator. ■ If additional tubing is needed, use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install the copper tubing only in areas where the household temperatures will remain above freezing. ■ Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily. 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. Water Pressure A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If you 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 30 and 120 psi (207 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 cartridge. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber. Product Dimensions IMPORTANT: ■ The depth from the front face of the doors to the back of the refrigerator cabinet is 24" (60.96 cm) without panels. ■ The power cord is 84" (213 cm) long. ■ The water supply connection is made at the bottom front of the refrigerator. Top View Front View ■ Width dimensions were measured from hinge to hinge. ■ When leveling legs are fully extended to 1¹⁄₄" (3.2 cm) below rollers, add 1¹⁄₄" (2.9 cm) to the height dimensions.

Connect to Water Line Parts Needed ■ Minimum 7 ft (2.13 m) flexible, codes approved water supply line Style 1—Shutoff Valve Connection NOTE: If your water line connection does not look like Style 1, see “Style 2—Copper Line Connection.”

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power supply.

IMPORTANT: ■ There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush installation if a water shutoff valve is located in the wall behind the refrigerator. The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on either side of the refrigerator. ■ Before attaching the tubing to shutoff valve, flush the main water supply line to remove particles and air in the water line. Allow enough flow so that water becomes clear. Flushing the water line may help avoid filters and/or water valves from becoming clogged.

2. Connect the flexible, codes approved water supply line to the

water shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto the shutoff valve as shown.

3. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoff

4. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including

connections at the valve) that leak. Style 2—Copper Line Connection NOTE: If there is a water supply line that meets the specifications in “Water Supply Requirements,” proceed to “Connecting to Refrigerator.” If not, use the following instructions to connect to the household cold water supply.

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 ½" to 1¹⁄₄" (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 keep normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure

from the connection on 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 ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) hole in the cold

water pipe you have selected.

6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe

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. IMPORTANT: Before attaching the tubing to shutoff valve, flush the main water supply line to remove particles and air in the water line. Allow enough flow so that water becomes clear. Flushing the water line may help avoid filters and/or water valves from becoming clogged.

7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on 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 the clamp or the sleeve. This will crush the copper tubing.

8. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper

9. Connect the flexible, codes approved water supply line to the

water shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto the shutoff valve.

10. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoff

The bulb- shaped edge should be forward with the notch at the top, as shown. Top View Move Refrigerator to Final Location IMPORTANT: ■ A flush installation is NOT possible with a 24" (60.9 cm) deep opening. ■ To avoid floor damage, make sure levelers are raised (not touching floor) and refrigerator is on rollers before moving. ■ Use the installation block, attached to the door hinge, as a reference to make sure the refrigerator is pushed back far enough into the opening, so that when the panels are installed they will be flush with the adjacent cabinets. ■ After the refrigerator is leveled and aligned, remove the installation block from the door hinge and use it to check the spacing between the panels and adjacent cabinets. NOTE: The installation block is designed to provide accurate spacing for ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm), ³⁄₈" (9.53 mm) and ¹⁄₈" (3.18 mm).

2. Move the refrigerator straight back and evenly into the

opening. Be sure that the water tubing is not kinked and the power supply cord is on top of the refrigerator. NOTE: If the power supply cord is behind the refrigerator, it will not install properly.

3. Make sure the installation block is flush with the adjacent

cabinets. NOTE: To achieve a flush installation, it is critical to verify a ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm) depth from the front face of the adjacent cabinetry to the refrigerator. Level and Align Refrigerator IMPORTANT: All four leveling legs must contact the floor to support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator. Rollers are for moving the refrigerator, not for permanent support. After moving the refrigerator to its final location:

1. Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts clockwise to

extend the legs to the floor as shown. The rollers should be off the floor. A. Side trimB. Adjacent cabinetC. DoorD. Bulb-shaped edge

Continue adjusting the leveling legs until the top of the refrigerator is making contact with the bottom of the solid soffit, or the bottom of the anti-tip boards, if anti-tip boards were used. Do not crush the compressor cover.IMPORTANT: Adjust in small increments to keep from damaging the cabinet trim and causing problems with the door alignment or top grille fit. To avoid damage to the cabinet or leveling legs, do not apply more than 50 inch-pounds (5.65 Nm) of torque to the leveling bolts. The leveling legs can be extended to a maximum of 1¹⁄₄" (3.18 cm) below the rollers.

4. After leveling the refrigerator, again use a straight edge or 4-ft

level across the front of the refrigerator installation blocks to the cabinets to check that the refrigerator is still flush. Install Refrigerator and Panels IMPORTANT: Jenn-Air is not responsible for the removal or addition of molding or wood overlay panels that would not allow access to the refrigerator for service. Install Top Grille Filler (standard installation only) IMPORTANT: The grille panel height allows the necessary airflow for refrigerator performance. The top grille filler hides the upper compartment cover behind the top grille. If you choose to modify the recommended grille panel dimensions, performance will be compromised.
