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.
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
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 OFF Cooling,
and then disconnect
the
refrigerator
from the electrical
source. When
you have finished,
reconnect
the refrigerator
to the electrical
source and turn ON
Cooling.
See "Using
the Controls."
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. 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."
Read all directions
before
you begin.
IMPORTANT:
•
If you turn the refrigerator
on before
the water
line is
connected,
turn the ice maker
OFF.
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,_6"
and
1/2"
open-end
or two
•
1/4"
drill bit
adjustable
wrenches
•
Cordless
drill
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,_6" (4.76 mm) saddle
valve
which reduces water
flow and clogs
more easily.
Connect to Water
Line
Style I
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" hole in the cold water
pipe you
have selected.

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
or you may crush the copper
tubing.
