Frequently Asked Questions - JPK48SNXWSS JENN-AIR

How to level the refrigerator?
Use a 5/16" socket wrench to turn the leveling bolts located at the front and rear. Turn clockwise to extend the legs until the rollers no longer touch the floor. Check level with a bubble level and adjust until the top of the refrigerator touches the bottom of the soffit or anti-tip boards. Do not tighten beyond 50 in-lb (5.65 Nm).
What water pressure is required for the dispenser and ice maker?
Cold water pressure between 30 and 120 psi (207 to 827 kPa) is required. For a reverse osmosis system, minimum pressure must be 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
How to install custom panels on the doors?
Pre-drill holes in the panels using the provided template. Attach the shoulder washers and sharp-pointed hex-head screws to the back of the panel. Align the washers with the J-slots on the door and slide the panel in place. Secure the mounting bracket at top and bottom. Use the installation shim for precise spacing of 3/8" (0.95 cm) or 1/8" (0.32 cm).
What to do if the ice maker is not working?
Check that the water supply is turned on and pressure is adequate. Make sure the shut-off valve is open. If installing the appliance without a water connection, set the ice maker to OFF. Purge the water system before use. Replace the water filter if necessary.
How to clean the refrigerator interior?
Use warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive or ammonia-based cleaners. Remove shelves and bins to wash separately. Wipe with a soft cloth and dry. For the base grille, remove dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Why does the door not close properly?
Check the refrigerator level: all four feet must touch the floor. Adjust the leveling bolts. Make sure the door panel is not misaligned: use the installation shim to verify the 3/8" (0.95 cm) or 1/8" (0.32 cm) gap with adjacent cabinets. Adjust the mounting brackets and adjustment rods.
How to change the water filter?
Locate the water filter cartridge in the upper grille or inside the refrigerator. Turn the filter a quarter turn counterclockwise to unlock and pull out. Insert the new filter by pushing and turning clockwise until it stops. Purge the water system by running 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water.
What type of lighting is used?
The refrigerator is equipped with LED lighting. To replace a bulb, consult the user guide. Disconnect the appliance before any intervention. LEDs have a long life and generally do not require replacement.
What to do in case of unusual noise?
A slight hum is normal (compressor, fan). If the noise is loud or irregular, check that the appliance is level and the feet are in full contact with the floor. Ensure no objects are touching the back or sides. If the noise persists, contact Jenn-Air after-sales service.
How to adjust the temperature?
The controls are factory preset to the medium setting. Use the electronic controls on the front panel to adjust the refrigerator and freezer temperatures. Wait 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize after a change. For optimal performance, do not block the ventilation grilles.

Electrical Requirements

WARNING

JENN-AIR JPK48SNXWSS - WARNING - 1

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.

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.

JENN-AIR JPK48SNXWSS - IMPORTANT: - 1

text_image 6" (15.2 cm) 6" (15.2 cm) 1" (2.54 cm) 6" (15.2 cm)

■ A 12 " (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 315 " (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 14 " (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.

Connect the Water Supply

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is connected, turn the ice maker OFF.

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.

C. Water tubing

  1. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoff valve ON.
  2. 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 12 " to 114 " (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.

  1. 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 14 " (6.35 mm) O.D.
    (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.
  2. Using a cordless drill, drill a 14 " (6.35 mm) hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

  1. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 14 " (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.

  1. 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.
  2. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing.
  3. Connect the flexible, codes approved water supply line to the water shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto the shutoff valve.
  4. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoff valve ON.
  5. Check for leaks around the saddle valve. Tighten any nuts or connections (including connections at the valve) that leak.
