Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and
any exterior wrapping material immediately
after the refrigerator is unpacked. Children
should never use these items to play. Cartons
covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets
or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers,
and can quickly cause suffocation.
Proper Disposal of your
Refrigerator or Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous
- even if they will sit for "just a few days". If
you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or
freezer, please follow the instructions below to
help prevent accidents.
Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/
Freezers
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility
company or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for
more information on recycling your old refrigerator.
Before you throw away your old
refrigerator/freezer:
Remove doors.
Leave shelves
in place so
children may
not easily
climb inside.
Have
refrigerant
removed by
a qualified
service technician.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to
prevent damaging the power cord.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the voltage
varies by 10% or more. Operating the
refrigerator with insufficient power can
damage the compressor. Such damage is
not covered under your warranty.
Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to
prevent the refrigerator from being turned
off accidentally.
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a
cooling system that used CFCs
or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs
are believed to harm stratospheric ozone if
released to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants
may also cause harm to the environment if
released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator,
make sure the refrigerant is removed for
proper disposal by a qualified technician. If
you intentionally release refrigerant, you may
be subject to fines and imprisonment under
provisions of environmental legislation.
Electrical information
The refrigerator must be plugged into its
own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp,
AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of
the appliance is equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug for your protection
against electrical shock hazards. It must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded
three prong receptacle. The receptacle
must be installed in accordance with local
codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to
a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do
not use an extension cord or adapter plug.
If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by an authorized service
technician to prevent any risk.
Pressing and holding the On/Off button for
three seconds, located on the left side of
; the temperature control panel will disable
your refrigerator's cooling system, but does
not disconnect the power to the light bulb
and other electrical components. To turn off
power to your refrigerator you must unplug
the power cord from the electrical outlet.

This Use & Care Guide provides general
installation and operating instructions for
your model. We recommend using a service
or kitchen contracting professional to install
your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as
instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before
starting the refrigerator, follow these important
first steps.
Do Not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or
rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor
will not be able to maintain proper
temperatures inside the refrigerator.
Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front
of your refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation
is essential for the proper operation of your
refrigerator.
Allow the following clearances for ease
of installation, proper air circulation, and
plumbing and electrical connections:

Guidelines for final positioning of your
refrigerator:
• All four corners of the cabinet must rest
firmly on the floor.
• The sides should tilt 1/4inch (6 mm) from
front to back (to ensure that doors close
and seal properly).
• Doors should align with each other and be
level.
Most of these conditions can be met by raising
or lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front
rollers (select models):

working properly.
Ensure that your water supply line
connections comply with all local plumbing
codes. ....
Before Ins_lling The Water Supply Line,
You Will Need:
• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, fiat-blade
screwdriver, and PhillipsTM screwdriver
Access to a household cold water line with
water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
A water supply line made of 1/4inch (6 mm)
OD, copper or stainless steel tubing. To
determine the length of tubing needed,
measure the distance from the ice maker
inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator
to your cold water pipe. Then add
approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters), so the
refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning
(as shown).
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice
Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power
source.
2. Place end of water supply line into sink or
bucket. Turn ON water supply and flush
supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF
water supply at shutoff valve.
3. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet
and discard cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide brass
compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve)
onto water supply line. Push water
supply line into water valve inlet as far
as it will go (1/4 inch/6 mm). Slide ferrule
(sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten
compression nut onto valve. Tighten
another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT
overtighten. See Figure 1.
If you use stainless steel tubing - The
nut and ferrule are already assembled on
the tubing. Slide compression nut onto
valve inlet and finger tighten compression
nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn
with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See
Figure 2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water
supply line (copper tubing only) to rear
panel of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper
1
tubing only), about 2/2 turns, behind
refrigerator as shown and arrange coils so
they do not vibrate or wear against any
other surface.
7. Turn ON water supply at shutoff valve and
tighten any connections that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power
source.

Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the
ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It
can completely fill an ice bin in about three
days.
When using the ice maker for the first time and
in order for the ice maker to work properly, it is
necessary to clear air from water filter tubing.
Once ice maker begins making ice, allow the
bucket to fill completely, then discard the
first TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will take at
least two days to completely fill the bucket on
regular ice making mode or 11/2days on fast
ice mode.
The ice maker produces approximately four
pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on
usage conditions.
The following sounds are normal when the
ice maker is operating:
Motor running
Ice dropping into ice bin
Water valve opening or closing
Running water
Ice cubes stored too long may develop an
odd flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained
below.
Quick Ice Function
Your refrigerator is equipped with a Quick Ice
Function, that increases ice production. This
function terminates automatically.
Cleaning the ice maker
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory If the water supply to your refrigerator is
so it can work as soon as you install your softened, be sure the softener is properly
refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water
supply, lift the ice maker's wire signal arm .... maintained. Chemicals from a water softener
to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker's can damage the ice maker.
fill valve may make a loud chattering noise
when it attempts to operate without water. Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular
intervals, especially prior to vacation or moving.
Turning the ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering
the ice maker's wire signal arm. To gain access
to the ice maker, pull the freezer drawer out. Lift
the wire signal arm to turn the ice maker OFF
and lower the wire signal arm to turn it ON.
Ice maker tips
If your refrigerator is not connected to a
water supply or the water supply is turned
off, turn off the ice maker by lifting wire
signal arm.
1 Turn off the ice maker.
2 Remove the ice bin.
3 Empty and carefully clean the ice bin
with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clean water.
4 Allow the ice bin to dry completely before
replacing in the freezer.
5 Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
Remove and empty the ice bin if:
An extended power failure (one hour or
longer) causes ice cubes in the ice bin to
melt and freeze together.
Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the
cubes or clean as explained above.
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This could
damage the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.

Ideas for storing foods
Fresh food storage
,, Keep the fresh food compartment
between 34 ° F and 40 ° F with an optimum
temperature of 37 ° F.
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator
shelves, which reduces air circulation and
causes uneven cooling.
Fruits and vegetables
• Store fruits and vegetables in crisper
drawers, where trapped moisture helps
preserve food quality for longer time
periods.
• Wash items and remove excess water.
• Wrap any items that have strong odors or
high moisture content.
Meat
• Wrap raw meat and poultry separately
and securely to prevent leaks and
contamination of other foods or surfaces.
• Use the deli drawer to store meat/poultry
for short-term storage. Any meat to be
kept longer than two days should be
frozen.
Frozen food storage
• Keep the freezer compartment at 0 ° F or
lower.
• A freezer operates most efficiently when it
is at least _ full.
Packaging foods for freezing
,, To minimize food dehydration and quality
deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer
wrap, freezer bags, or airtight containers.
Force as much air out of the packages as
possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air
can cause food to dry out, change color,
and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
• Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable
freezer wrap prior to freezing.
Do not refreeze meat that has completely
thawed.
Loading the freezer
• Prior to grocery shopping, activate
"quick freeze" so that on your return you
can ensure your newly purchased food
designated for the freezer will be preserved
as quickly as possible.
• Activating "quick freeze" also will help
your freezer more efficiently maintain the
selected temperature after placing new
purchases with pre-existing frozen foods.
• Avoid adding too much warm food to the
freezer at one time. This overloads the
freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can
raise the temperature of frozen foods.
• Leave a space between packages, so cold
air can circulate freely, allowing food to
freeze as quickly as possible.
Ideas for saving energy
[nstallation
• Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part
of the room, out of direct sunlight, and
away from heating ducts or registers.
• Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-
producing appliances such as a range,
oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible,
a section of cabinetry or an added layer
of insulation between the two appliances
will help the refrigerator operate more
efficiently.
• Level the refrigerator so that the doors
close tightly.
Temperature settings
,, Refer to the "Controls" section for
procedures on temperature settings.
Food storage
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or
blocking cold air vents. Doing so causes
the refrigerator to run longer and use more
energy.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before
placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts
down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door
openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as
soon as possible.
• Do not place a hot container directly on
a cold shelf. Remember, such an extreme
temperature change may damage the
glass.
Understanding the sounds you
may hear
Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may
introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds
normally indicate your refrigerator is operating
correctly. Some surfaces on floors, walls, and
kitchen cabinets may make these sounds more
noticeable.
The following is a list of major components
in your refrigerator and the sounds they can
cause:
A Evaporator Refrigerant through the
evaporator may create a boiling or
gurgling sound.
B Evaporator fan You may hear air being
forced through the refrigerator by the
evaporator fan.
C Defrost heater During defrost cycles,
water dripping onto the defrost heater
may cause a hissing or sizzling sound.
After defrosting, a popping sound may
OCCUr.
D Automatic ice maker When ice has
been produced, you will hear ice cubes
falling into the ice bin. Ice maker fan,
water valve activation, and refrigerant gas
fluid may create sounds from its operation.
E Electronic control & automatic
defrost control These parts can produce
a snapping or clicking sound when turning
the cooling system on and off.
F Condenser fan You may hear air being
forced through the condenser.
G Compressor Modern, high-efficiency
compressors run much faster than older
models. The compressor may have a high-
pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each
time it opens to fill the ice maker.
I Drain pan (not removable) You may hear
water dripping into the drain pan during
the defrost cycle.
J Condenser May create minimal sounds
from forced air.
H Hotorized damper Nay produce a light
humming during operation.
Energy efficient foam in your refrigerator is
not a sound insulator,
During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow
in the back wall vents of your freezer
compartment is normal.
