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 final 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 qualified 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.

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 the food.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation or cleaning, 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.
■ Connect to potable water supply only.
■ 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 right-hand side is recommended. The access hole through the cabinet must be within 1/2" (1.3 cm) of the rear

NOTE: If the water shutoff valve is in the back wall behind refrigerator, it must be at an angle so that the tube is not k when the refrigerator is pushed into its final location.

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

If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for the water line can come through the floor. A 1/2" (12.7 mm) hole for plumbing should be drilled at least 6" (15.2 cm) from the right-hand or left-hand side cabinet or panel. On the floor, the hole should be no more than 1" (2.54 cm) away from the back wall. See "Connect the Water Supply."
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.
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 also 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 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, qualified plumber.

NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow of water from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes could be hollow or irregular shaped. 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 psi and 120 psi (207 kPa 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 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 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.

the Tipping Radius

Be sure there is adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigerator upright when it is moved into place.

■ Be sure there is adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigerator upright when it is moved into place.
■ If needed, the tipping radius can be reduced. See "Reduce Tipping Radius."

Overlay Series Custom Panels and Decorative Overlay Panel Handle Kits

Custom overlay panels allow you to blend the exterior of your refrigerator into the overall kitchen décor, and to use custom handles for additional design flexibility.

The custom panels must have backer panels attached in order to mount them to the refrigerator. It is most common to work with three panels, as shown in the following graphic: a decorative overlay panel, a 1/8" (3.18 mm) spacer panel or spacer strips and a 1/4" (6.35 mm) backer panel.

In some cases, your cabinet manufacturer may choose to work with one panel routed for the different dimensions. Follow these panel dimension and placement instructions to be sure that the custom overlay panels will fit properly.

IMPORTANT:

■ The weight of the refrigerator door overlay panel cannot exceed 50 lbs (23 kg).
■ The weight of the freezer door overlay panel cannot exceed 40 lbs (18.1 kg).
■ The weight of the top grille overlay panel cannot exceed 10 lbs (4.5 kg).

To minimize panel weight, you may use 2" (5.08 cm) spacer strips around the perimeter in place of full-sheet solid spacer panels. The spacer strips must be set in at least 1" (2.54 cm) from the top, bottom and sides edges of the backer panel. If you use spacer strips, it is also recommended that you use two 2" (5.08 cm) strips horizontally centered for added support.

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 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.

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 water6 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. Connect the flexible, codes-approved water supply line to the water shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto the shutoff valve as shown.

Simple line drawing of a rectangular device with two vertical slots, no text or symbols present.

Notes:

■ Water will only dispense when left door is closed and will stop dispensing when door is opened.
■ It is NOT possible to dispense both water and ice at the 2. same time. The paddle that is pressed first will be the one that dispenses.

1. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: Water may have an off-flavor if you do not use the dispenser periodically. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

Ice Dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker, see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."

Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. The display screen reads "CRUSHED" or "CUBED," indicating which type is selected. To change the setting, press the ICE button before dispensing ice.

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 crushed to cubed, 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.

WARNING

Cut Hazard

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

Clean the Ice Storage Bin

NOTE: It is normal for ice to stick together in the ice bin. Ice may be dispensed or used more frequently which will break up the ice. It is recommended that the ice container be emptied and cleaned as needed.

To clean the ice storage bin:

1. Empty the ice container. Use warm water to melt the ice if necessary.

NOTE: 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.

1. Wash ice bin with a mild detergent, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Remember

■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days to completely fill ice container.
■ Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid impurities that may be flushed out of the system.

■ The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of 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.
■ It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners. They will break apart easily.
■ For Style 1 ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up down.
■ Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice storage bin/bucket.

Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food per cubic foot [907-1,350 g per 28 L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be sure to leave enough room for the door to close tightly.

For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.

Freezer Basket

The freezer basket can be used to store bags of frozen fruits and vegetables that may slide off freezer shelves.

To remove and replace the freezer basket:
