INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS

Unpack the Refrigerator

Remove packaging materials. 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 the "Refrigerator Safety" section.

When Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or "walk" the refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.

For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when removing them to avoid impact from dropping.

Location Requirements

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for 1/2" cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave 2" (5.08 cm) minimum on each side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to swing open. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).

Electrical Requirements

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 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 the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending on the model) to the desired setting.

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 OFE
• All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
• Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing only inareas where the house hold temperatures will remain above freezing.

TOOLS NEEDED: Flat-blade screwdriver, 7/16"and 1/2"open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, 1/4"nut driver and drill bit, hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded).

NOTE: Your freezer dealer has a kit available with a 1/4"(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and plastic tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or 3_e,, mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

Water Pressure

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and psi (207-827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, see "Troubleshooting" or 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 system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 - 414 kPa). If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than to 60 psi (276 - 414 kPa), a booster pump can be inserted into the small tubing that goes from the cold water line to the reverse osmosis system.

If the water dispenser is still not dispensing water 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 your refrigerator has a water filter cartridge, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter cartridge. See "Water Filtration System."

If you have questions about your water pressure, refer to "Troubleshooting" or call a licensed, qualified plumber.

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 OFE

Connect to Water Line

1. Unplug freezer 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"(12.7 mm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water pipe near the freezer.

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 plastic tubing you need. Measure from the connection on the lower left rear of freezer to the water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4" mm) O.D. (outside diameter) plastic tubing. Be sure both ends of plastic tubing are cut square.

5. Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4"(6.35 mm) 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"(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 carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the plastic tubing.

7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the plastic 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 plastic tubing.

Connect to Refrigerator

Style 1

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove the shipping tape from the gray, coiled water tubing on the rear of the refrigerator.

3. A 1/4"x 1/4"coupling is needed to order to connect the water tubing to an existing household water supply line. Thread the provided nut onto the coupling on the end of the copper tubing.

NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not overtighten.

4. Turn shutoff valve ON.

5. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including connections at the valve) that leak.

Style 2

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove the shipping tape from the gray, coiled water tubing on the rear of the refrigerator.

3. Thread the provided nut on to the water valve as shown,

NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not overtighten.

4. Turn shutoff valve ON.

5. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including connections at the valve) that leak.

Complete the Installation

1. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
2. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."

NOTE: It may take up to 24 hours for your ice maker to begin producing ice.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer Control should both be set to the "mid-settings."

Style 1

Style 2

IMPORTANT:

• Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control is set to OFE
• The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature. 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 the refrigerator. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may spoil.

Style 1

Turn the control to the right (clockwise) to make the compartment colder or to the left (counter clockwise) to make it less cold.

Style 2

1. Push control button on the side of the control box and release it.
2. The control will pop out. Turn the control to the desired setting.
3. Push the control in to lock it into place.

NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a higher colder) than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any faster.

Adjusting Controls

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. The settings indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at least hours between adjustments.

Convertible Drawer Temperature Control

The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is cooled to prevent "spot" freezing and can be set to keep meats at the National Live stock and Meat Board recommended storage temperatures of28°to32°F(-2°to0°C). The convertible vegetable/meat drawer control comes preset at the lowest meat setting.

To store meat:

Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at its optimal storage temperature.

To store vegetables:

Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures.

NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the left (less cold). Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments.

Crisper Humidity Control

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH.

LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.

Chilled Door Bin

Cool air from the freezer is directed to the refrigerator door bin directly beneath the vents.

NOTE: The dairy compartment and can rack are not associated with the Chilled Door Bin feature.

Chilled Door Bin Control

The chilled door bin control is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator compartment.

• Turn the control clockwise (right) to reduce the flow of cold air to the bin and make it less cold.
• Turn the control counterclockwise (left) to increase the flow of cold air to the bin and make it colder.

Water and Ice Dispenser

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT:

• The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open.
• After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the water system by dispensing water into a sturdy container until you draw and discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water, or for approximately 5 minutes after the water begins dispensing.
• The flushing process cleans the water system and clears air from the lines. As the air is cleared from the lines, water may spurt out of the dispenser.
• Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
• Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

To Dispense Water:

1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

The Ice Dispenser

The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser lever is pressed.

Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.

NOTE: Some models dispense both cubed and crushed ice. Before dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer.

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 crush to cube, 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.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall outside of the glass.

IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

The Dispenser Light

Style 1: The dispenser light can be turned on by pressing the ON button.

Style 2: When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn the light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either ON or NIGHT LIGHT.

ON: Press the LIGHT button to turn the dispenser light on.

NIGHT LIGHT: Press the LIGHT button a second time to select the Night Light. The dispenser light will automatically adjust to become brighter as the room brightens, dimmer as the room darkens.

OFF: Press the LIGHT button a third time to turn the dispenser light off.

The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be changed. If it appears that your dispenser lights are not working, check to be sure that the light sensor is not blocked (in Night Light mode). See "Troubleshooting" for more information.

The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the dispenser levers. The ice and water dispensers will not work.

Style 1: Press the LOCK button to lock the dispenser. Press the UNLOCK button to unlock the dispenser.

Style 2: Press and hold the LOCK OUT button to lock the dispenser. Press and hold the LOCK OUT button a second time to unlock the dispenser.

Ice Maker and Storage Bin

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

The ON/OFF switch is located on the top right-hand side of the freezer compartment. To turn on the ice maker, slide the control to the ON (left) position. To manually turn off the ice maker, slide the control to the OFF right) position.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The ice maker sensors will automatically stop ice production, but the control will remain in the ON (left) position.

REMEMBER:

• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. 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 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.
• Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage bin.

Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin

1. Hold the base of the storage bin with both hands and press the release button to lift the storage bin up and out.

NOTE: It is not necessary to turn the ice maker control to the OFF (right) position when removing the storage bin. The sensor cover ("flipper door") on the left wall of the freezer stops the ice maker from producing ice if the door is open or the storage bin is removed.

2. Replace the storage bin on the door and push down to make sure it is securely in place.

Water Filtration System

NOTE: 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.

Water Filter Status Light (on some models)

The filter status light will help you know when to change your water filter. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells you that it is almost time to change the filter. It is recommended that you replace the filter when the status light changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably.

After changing the filter, reset the filter status light by pressing the button. The status light will change from red to green when the system is reset.

Non-indicator Water Filter (on some models)

If your refrigerator does not have the status light, you should change the water filter every 6 months depending upon your usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter more often.

Changing the Water Filter

1. Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.
2. Pull the filter straight out.
3. Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter. IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.
4. Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and turn the cap until it snaps into place. NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.
5. Remove the protective covers from the O-rings.
6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop back out when the filter is fully engaged.
7. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

3. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

4. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

• Remove the base grille.
• Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the condenser.
• Replace the base grille when finished.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulbs

NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage. The dispenser light requires a heavy duty 10-watt bulb. All other lights require a watt bulb. Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove light shield when applicable. NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.
3. Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size, shape and wattage.
4. Replace light shield when applicable.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
