This Use & Care Guide provides general installation

and operating instructionsfor 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.

,, Choose a place that is near a grounded, non-

GFCI, electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension

cord or an adapter plug.

• If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct

sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher, or

other heat sources.

,, The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that

is level and strong enough to support a fully

loaded refrigerator.

,, Consider water supply availability for models

equipped with an automatic ice maker.

CAUTION

DO NOT install the refrigerator where the

temperature will drop below 55°F (13°O) 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.

Installation

,, Allow the following clearances for ease of

installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing

and electrical connections:

Sides & Top ¾ inch (9.5 mm)

Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)

NOTE

If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge

against a wall, you may have to allow additional space

so the door can be opened wider.

Door opening

NOTE

The refrigerator doors are designed to shut by

themselves within a 20 degree opening.

Your refrigerator should be positioned to aitow easy

access to a counter when removing food. For best

use of refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets, the

refrigerator should be in a position where both can be

fully opened.

Guidelines for final positioning

of your refrigerator

* All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on

the floor.

The cabinet should be level at the front and rear.

The sides should tilt ¼ inch (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.

2 Connecting theWater upply

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or

severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator

from electrical power before connecting a water

supply line to the refrigerator.

CAUTION

To Avoid Properly Damage:

* Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is

recommended for the water supply line. Water

supply tubing made of ¼ inch plastic is not

recommended to be used. Plastic tubing greatly

increases the potential for water leaks, and the

manufacturer will not be responsible for any

damage if plastic tubing is used for the supply fine.

* DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas

where temperatures fall below freezing.

° Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener

can damage the ice maker, if the ice maker

is connected to soft water, ensure that the

softener is maintained and working properly.

IMPORTANT

Ensure that your water supply line connections

comply with all local plumbing codes.

Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

* Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade

screwdriver, and Phillips TM screwdriver

- Access to a household cold water line with water

pressure between 30 and 100 psi.

,, A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4 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).

* A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line

to your household water system. DO NOT use a

self-piercing type shutoff valve.

,, A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting

a copper water supply lineto the ice maker inlet valve.

NOTE

Check with your local buildingauthority for

recommendations on ,waterlines and associated materials

prior to installingyour new refrigerator. Depending on

your local/state building codes, Electrolux recommends for

homes with existing valves itsSmart Choice@water line kit

maker operation & care

After the refrigerator is installed properly and has

cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice

within 24 hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about

eight (8) hours.

The ice maker will produce up to nine (9) pounds of ice

every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

IMPORTANT

Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work

as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot

connect a water supply, set the ice maker's On/Off icon

to Off and turn off the water supply valve; otherwise, the

ice maker's fill valve may make a loud chattering noise

when it attempts to operate without water.

Turning the ice maker on and off

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off

icon on the control panel. Press and hold the "Ice Off"

icon for three (3) seconds to turn the ice maker "ON" or

IMPORTANT

Turning off the ice maker will result in existing ice

melting in the bin.

IMPORTANT

Turning off the ice maker will disable the ice

dispenser. You will still be able to dispense water.

NOTE

The ice maker also has a built-in plastic signal bate

arm that automatically stops ice production when the

ice bin is full, This signal arm should not be used to

manually stop the ice maker.

Using the ice maker after installation

Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime

the water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can

result in two (2) or three (3) empty ice maker cycles.

Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice

cubes may' be discolored or have an odd flavor.

IMPORTANT

On occasion, unusually small disc-shaped ice may be

noticed in the bucket or in dispensed ice. This could

occur in normal operation of the ice maker. If you start

seeing these more frequently, it may be an indication

of low water pressure or the water filter needs to

be replaced. As the water filter nears the end of its

useful life and becomes clogged with particles, less

water is delivered to the ice maker during each cycle.

Remember, if it's been six (6) months or longer since

you last changed your water filter, replace the water

filter with a new one. Poor quality household water may

require the filter to be changed more frequently.

or clicking sound when the ice chute opens and

closes.

• If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is

best to get cubes directly from the ice bin.

o When dispensing cubed ice, it is normal to have

a small quantity of little pieces along with the

whole cubes.

,, ice cubes stored too tong may develop an odd

flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.

CAUTION

if the water supply to your refrigerator is softened,

be sure the softener is properly maintained.

Chemicals from a water softener can damage the

ice maker.

Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals,

especially prior to vacation or moving.

1 Turn off the ice

maker.

2 Remove the ice bin

by pulling straight

out.

Empty and carefully

clean the ice bin

with mild detergent.

Do not use harsh or

abrasive cleaners.

Rinse with clear

water.

Removing Ice Bin

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, jamming the dispenser mechanism.

You do not use the ice dispenser frequently. Ice

cubes will freeze together in the bin, jamming the

dispenser mechanism.

Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen the cubes or

clean as explained above.

Storing Food and Saving Energy

ideas for storing foods

Fresh food storage

,, Keep the fresh food compartment between 34 ° F

and 40° F with an optimum temperature of 37° R

- 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 dell drawer or Custom Temp TM drawer

and set to meat/poultry setting for short-term

storage. Any meat to be kept longer than two (2)

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.

o Do not refreeze meat that has completely

thawed.

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

Installation

,, 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 (2) appliances will help the refrigerator

operate more efficiently.

o 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.

Loading the freezer

,, Prior to grocery shopping, activate "express

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 "express freeze" also will help your

freezer more efficiently maintain the selected

temperature after placing new purchases with

pre-existing frozen foods.

24 ormai Operating Sounds

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 "Youmay 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.

Motorized Custom Temp TM drawer damper

May produce a light humming during operation.

Ice dispensing paddle When dispensing ice,

you will hear a snapping, clicking, or popping

sound when the solenoid opens and closes the

ice chute.

Motorized damper May produce a light

humming during operation.

N CustomTemp TM drawerfan Turns off when

door opens or Custom Temp TM drawer is turned

This Use & Care Guide provides general installation

and operating instructionsfor 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.

,, Choose a place that is near a grounded, non-

GFCI, electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension

cord or an adapter plug.

• If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct

sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher, or

other heat sources.

,, The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that

is level and strong enough to support a fully

loaded refrigerator.

,, Consider water supply availability for models

equipped with an automatic ice maker.

CAUTION

DO NOT install the refrigerator where the

temperature will drop below 55°F (13°O) 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.

Installation

,, Allow the following clearances for ease of

installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing

and electrical connections:

Sides & Top ¾ inch (9.5 mm)

Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)

NOTE

If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge

against a wall, you may have to allow additional space

so the door can be opened wider.

Door opening

NOTE

The refrigerator doors are designed to shut by

themselves within a 20 degree opening.

Your refrigerator should be positioned to aitow easy

access to a counter when removing food. For best

use of refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets, the

refrigerator should be in a position where both can be

fully opened.

Guidelines for final positioning

of your refrigerator

* All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on

the floor.

The cabinet should be level at the front and rear.

The sides should tilt ¼ inch (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.

After unit is leveled, lower anti-tip leg until it

contacts the floor,

Use a flat-blade screwdriver or ¾-inch socket

wrench to raise or lower the front rollers,

Ensure both doors are bind-free with their seals

touching the cabinet on all four sides,

NOTE

The anti-tip leg must be in contact with the floor to

keep the refrigerator stable. DO NOT use the anti-tip

leg to level the refrigerator,

2 Connecting theWater upply

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or

severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator

from electrical power before connecting a water

supply line to the refrigerator.

CAUTION

To Avoid Properly Damage:

* Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is

recommended for the water supply line. Water

supply tubing made of ¼ inch plastic is not

recommended to be used. Plastic tubing greatly

increases the potential for water leaks, and the

manufacturer will not be responsible for any

damage if plastic tubing is used for the supply fine.

* DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas

where temperatures fall below freezing.

° Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener

can damage the ice maker, if the ice maker

is connected to soft water, ensure that the

softener is maintained and working properly.

IMPORTANT

Ensure that your water supply line connections

comply with all local plumbing codes.

Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

* Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade

screwdriver, and Phillips TM screwdriver

- Access to a household cold water line with water

pressure between 30 and 100 psi.

,, A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4 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).

* A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line

to your household water system. DO NOT use a

self-piercing type shutoff valve.

,, A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting

a copper water supply lineto the ice maker inlet valve.

NOTE

Check with your local buildingauthority for

recommendations on ,waterlines and associated materials

prior to installingyour new refrigerator. Depending on

your local/state building codes, Electrolux recommends for

homes with existing valves itsSmart Choice@water line kit

5305513409 (with a 6 ft. Stainless Steel Water Line) and for

homes without an existing valve, Etectrotuxrecommends

its Smart Choice water_lbline kit5305510264 (with a 20 ft.

maker operation & care

After the refrigerator is installed properly and has

cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice

within 24 hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about

eight (8) hours.

The ice maker will produce up to nine (9) pounds of ice

every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

IMPORTANT

Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work

as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot

connect a water supply, set the ice maker's On/Off icon

to Off and turn off the water supply valve; otherwise, the

ice maker's fill valve may make a loud chattering noise

when it attempts to operate without water.

Turning the ice maker on and off

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker's On/Off

icon on the control panel. Press and hold the "Ice Off"

icon for three (3) seconds to turn the ice maker "ON" or

IMPORTANT

Turning off the ice maker will result in existing ice

melting in the bin.

IMPORTANT

Turning off the ice maker will disable the ice

dispenser. You will still be able to dispense water.

NOTE

The ice maker also has a built-in plastic signal bate

arm that automatically stops ice production when the

ice bin is full, This signal arm should not be used to

manually stop the ice maker.

Using the ice maker after installation

Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime

the water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can

result in two (2) or three (3) empty ice maker cycles.

Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice

cubes may' be discolored or have an odd flavor.

IMPORTANT

On occasion, unusually small disc-shaped ice may be

noticed in the bucket or in dispensed ice. This could

occur in normal operation of the ice maker. If you start

seeing these more frequently, it may be an indication

of low water pressure or the water filter needs to

be replaced. As the water filter nears the end of its

useful life and becomes clogged with particles, less

water is delivered to the ice maker during each cycle.

Remember, if it's been six (6) months or longer since

you last changed your water filter, replace the water

filter with a new one. Poor quality household water may

require the filter to be changed more frequently.

or clicking sound when the ice chute opens and

closes.

• If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is

best to get cubes directly from the ice bin.

o When dispensing cubed ice, it is normal to have

a small quantity of little pieces along with the

whole cubes.

,, ice cubes stored too tong may develop an odd

flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.

CAUTION

if the water supply to your refrigerator is softened,

be sure the softener is properly maintained.

Chemicals from a water softener can damage the

ice maker.

Storing Food and Saving Energy

ideas for storing foods

Fresh food storage

,, Keep the fresh food compartment between 34 ° F

and 40° F with an optimum temperature of 37° R

- 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 dell drawer or Custom Temp TM drawer

and set to meat/poultry setting for short-term

storage. Any meat to be kept longer than two (2)

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.

o Do not refreeze meat that has completely

thawed.

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

Installation

,, 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 (2) appliances will help the refrigerator

operate more efficiently.

o 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.

Loading the freezer

,, Prior to grocery shopping, activate "express

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 "express freeze" also will help your

freezer more efficiently maintain the selected

temperature after placing new purchases with

pre-existing frozen foods.
