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 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.
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
finished, 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, 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. The tank capacity could be too low
to keep up with the requirements of the refrigerator.
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. 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
■
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 flow 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 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 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.
