1. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cloth.

NOTE: Do not use sharp instruments. rubbing alcohol. flammable fluids. or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For more information see “Refrigerator Safety.”

Install Levelers

IMPORTANT: Lay down the refrigerator ONLY to your left-hand side (as you are looking at the front of the refrigerator). to avoid damaging the refrigerator.

1. Locate the levelers. They are enclosed in a plastic bag inside the crisper drawer.

2. Using two or more people. access the bottom of the refrigerator either by tilting it first to one side and then the other. OR by laying it down on the floor to your left-hand side. as shown.

- Tilt the refrigerator to the side enough to access the bottom. Using a ³⁄₈" hex driver. remove the two screws attaching the wooden runner to the bottom of the refrigerator. Then install a leveler to the front corner.

NOTE: The refrigerator cabinet should not touch the floor without a leveler installed.

- Using the packaging corner posts (left-hand side. front and back) as a cushion. lay the refrigerator down on the floor (to your left-hand side only). as shown in the following graphic.

NOTE: Using the packaging as a cushion will help avoid denting or scratching the refrigerator.

- Using a ³⁄₈" hex driver. remove the two screws attaching each wooden runner to the bottom of the refrigerator. Install a leveler to each of the front corners.

Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the package materials. clean the inside of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in “Refrigerator Care.”

Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor. household use only.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator. allow ¹⁄₂" (1.25 cm) of space on each side. and between the top of the refrigerator and overhead cabinets. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker. allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall. leave a 3¹⁄₈" (8 cm) minimum space on the hinge side to allow the door to swing open.

NOTE: This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range for optimum performance. which reduces electricity usage and provides superior cooling. is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near a heat source. such as an oven or radiator.

Water Supply Requirements

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

- If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is connected. turn the ice maker OFF.

- All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

- Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing only in areas where the household temperatures will remain above freezing.

TOOLS NEEDED: Flat-blade screwdriver. ⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or 2 adjustable wrenches. ¹⁄₄" nut driver and drill bit. cordless drill. Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed.

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.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure. call a licensed. qualified plumber.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

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 ice maker is still not operating properly:

- 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 you have questions about your water pressure. call a licensed. qualified plumber.

Connect the Water Supply (on some models)

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is connected. turn the ice maker OFF to avoid excessive noise or damage to the water valve.

Connect to Water Line

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" (1.27 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 will need. Measure from the connection on 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.

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" 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.

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.

8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink. and turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

Temperature Control

When you plug in the refrigerator for the first time. set the Temperature Control to the Recommended setting. Temperature Control adjustments range from MIN (least cold) to MAX (coldest).

IMPORTANT:

- Turning the Temperature Control to OFF stops cooling in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. but it does not disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply.

- The Temperature Control regulates the temperature in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting make the temperature colder.

- Wait 24 hours before you put food into your refrigerator. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely. your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the Temperature Control to a higher (colder) setting will not cool the compartments any faster.

- The mid-settings should be correct for normal household usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

- If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or freezer. before adjusting the controls. first make sure the air vents are not blocked.

Airflow Control

The Airflow control is located on the back wall of the freezer. It regulates the amount of air flowing between the freezer and the refrigerator compartments.

When you plug in the refrigerator for the first time. turn the Airflow control to the Recommended setting.

Adjust the Airflow Control

If you want to temporarily increase the cold airflow to a specific compartment. adjust the control.

IMPORTANT: Once the performance is achieved. return the Airflow control to the Recommended setting to keep the refrigerator operating at optimum efficiency.

Crisper Humidity Control (on some models)

You control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Depending on the produce you are storing. select the desired Humidity Level.

Humidity Level - Min Setting

MIN (open) lets moist air out of the crisper for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

- Fruit: Wash. let dry and store in refrigerator in plastic bag or crisper. Do not wash or hull berries until they are ready to use. Sort and keep berries in original container in crisper. or store in a loosely closed paper bag on a refrigerator shelf.

- Vegetables with skins: Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.

MAX (closed) keeps moist air in the crisper for best storage of fresh. leafy vegetables.

- Leafy vegetables: Wash in cold water. drain and trim or tear off bruised and discolored areas. Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.

Ice Maker (on some models - Accessory)

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

NOTE: Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

- To turn the ice maker on. simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made. the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position.

- To manually turn off the ice maker. lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure the ice maker will not continue to operate.

NOTE: Turn off the ice maker before removing the ice storage bin to serve ice or to clean the bin. This will keep the ice cubes from dropping out of the ice maker and into the freezer compartment. After replacing the ice storage bin. turn on the ice maker.

Ice Production Rate

In normal operation. the ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast. enough adjust the controls.

- Air Flow Control - Turn the control dial to the Max Freezer setting.

- Temperature Control - Turn the control dial gradually toward the Max setting. waiting 24 hours between each increase.

Remember

- Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days to completely fill the ice storage bin. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.

- The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the 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.

- Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice storage bin.
