What's New Behind the Doors?

Your KitchenAid French Door Refrigerator comes equipped with various innovative storage and energy efficient features.

Energy and Normal Operating Sounds

Your new French Door Bottom Mount refrigerator has been designed to optimize energy efficiency. and better regulate temperatures to match cooling demand. You may notice that it operates differently than your previously owned refrigerator.

It is normal for the high-efficiency compressor to run for extended periods of time at varying speeds in order to consume only the energy necessary for optimum efficiency.

In addition. during various stages of the cooling cycle. you may hear normal operating sounds that are unfamiliar to you.

More Storage Space

The French Door Bottom Mount has the most fresh food storage space available. including a full-width. temperature controlled. pantry drawer perfect for storing veggie trays or party platters.

In-Door-Ice C"Ice Dispensing System

The ice storage bin located in the door provides an entire extra shelf of storage space. and the storage bin is removable for easy access to filtered ice.

Dual Evaporator (on some models)

The refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment have separate evaporators to provide fresh food and frozen food with separate climates.

The refrigerator stays cool and humid for the optimum storage of fresh foods while the freezer stays cold and dry. Humidity from the refrigerator does not mix with dry freezer air. so frost is controlled. which reduces freezer burn. Since no air is shared between the refrigerator and freezer. the transfer of food odors and tastes from the refrigerator to the freezer is eliminated.

Water Filter

Certified filter reduces chlorine taste and odor. particulates (class I). lead. and mercury. Replacing the water filter every 6 months ensures clean. filtered drinking water.

Air Filter

An air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at reducing common food odors inside the refrigerator.

Produce Preserver (on some models)

Ethylene is a natural gas produced by fruits and vegetables to promote ripening. The Produce Preserver absorbs ethylene. to delay the over-ripening of fresh produce.

As a result. certain produce items will stay fresh longer.

Water Dispenser with Measured Fill

The measured fill feature allows you to dispense the desired amount of filtered water.

LED Lighting

The LED lights do not ever need to be replaced.

Door Alarm

A helpful alarm sounds when the refrigerator door or freezer drawer is left ajar.

Power Outage Indicator

If the power should go out while you are away from home. this indicator will let you know that the refrigerator has been without power.

Unpack the Refrigerator

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Remove the Packaging

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. Wipe with warm water and dry.

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."

Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

When Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service. be sure to cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage.
