7. WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
7.1 Before Installing The Water
Supply Line
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, which can
cause death or severe personal injury,
disconnect the appliance from the
electrical power before connecting a
water supply line to the appliance.
CAUTION!
To avoid property damage:
Use copper or stainless steel
braided tubing for the water supply
line. Do not use water supply
tubing made of 1/4" plastic. Plastic
tubing greatly increases the
potential for water leaks, and the
manufacturer will not be
responsible for any damage if you
use plastic tubing for the supply
line.
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 your water supply line
connections comply with all local
plumbing codes.
7.2 You will need
Basic tools: adjustable wrench, flat-
blade screwdriver, and Phillips™
screwdriver.
Access to a household cold water line
with water pressure between 30 and
100 psi.
A water supply line made of 1/4" (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 appliance to your cold
water pipe. Then add approximately 6 ft
(1.8 m) to ensure you can move the
appliance for cleaning.
A shutoff valve to connect the water
supply line to your household water
system. Do not use a self-piercing type
shutoff valve.
Do not reuse compression fitting or use
thread seal tape.
A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
for connecting a copper water supply
line to the ice maker inlet valve.
NOTE
Check with your local building
authority for recommendations on
water lines and associated materials
prior to installing your new refrigerator.
Depending on your local/state building
codes, Frigidaire recommends:
for homes with existing valves its
Smart Choice® water line kit
5304437642 with a 6 ft stainless
steel water line.
Please refer to Frigidaire.com for
more information.
7.3 Installing the Water Supply
Line
IMPORTANT
Your appliance water supply system
includes several tubing lines, a water
filter, and a water valve. To ensure

9. AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER
Table title
.
NOTE
Refrigerator Ice Maker (External Dispenser Models Only)
9.1 Priming the water supply
system
Before making ice for the first time, prime
the water supply system. Air in new
plumbing lines can result in two or three
empty ice maker cycles. If the system is
not flushed, the first ice cubes may have
discolored water or have an odd flavor.
Purge air from the system:
1. Press and hold a drinking glass
against the water dispenser paddle
until water comes out (it may take up
to 4 minutes to purge air from the
system).
2. Run approximately 1 full gallon of
water through the dispenser before
use, and discard.
Dispenser (varies by model)
Q
uick
Freeze
CAUTION!
For proper dispenser operation, the
recommended water supply pressure
should fall between 30 psi and 100
psi. Excessive pressure may cause
the system to malfunction.
NOTE
The water dispenser has a built-in
device that shuts off the water flow
after 2 minutes of continuous use. To
reset this shutoff device, release the
dispenser paddle.
NOTE
Dispensed water is not chilled. For
colder water, add ice to cup or
container before dispensing water.
9.2 Ice maker Operation and Care
After you properly install the refrigerator
and it has cooled for several hours, the ice
maker can produce ice within 24 hours.
9.3 Storage bin capacity
The refrigerator ice maker should produce:
In a standard depth model: 3.2 to 3.7
lbs of ice per 24 hours.
In a counter depth model: 3.2 to 3.7 lbs
of ice per 24 hours.
The refrigerator ice bin holds around:
In a standard depth model: 5 lbs of ice.
20 ENGLISH
background
In a counter depth model: 4 lbs of ice.
9.4 Turning the ice maker on/off
Ice production is controlled by the ice
maker On/Off feature on the appliance
control display. Press the On/Off feature to
turn the ice maker on and off.
IMPORTANT
Turning off the ice maker disables ice
making. You will still be able to
dispense existing ice, and dispense
water.
NOTE
The ice maker also has a built-in
plastic signal 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.
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 On/Off feature to Off;
otherwise, the ice maker fill valve may
make a loud chattering noise when it
attempts to operate without water.
IMPORTANT
On occasion, you may notice
unusually small ice cubes 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. If it has
been 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.
9.5 Ice maker/Dispenser Tips
Ice cubes stored too long may develop
an odd flavor. Empty the ice container
as explained in Cleaning the ice maker
section.
If your refrigerator is not connected to a
water supply or the water supply is
turned off, turn off the ice maker.
If you need a large quantity of ice at
one time, it is best to get cubes directly
from the ice container.
The following sounds are normal when
the ice maker is operating:
Motor running
Ice dropping into ice container
Water valve opening or closing
Running water
When dispensing ice, hold the cup in
position for a moment after releasing
the paddle. This ensures all ice falls
into the cup.
CAUTION!
Chemicals from a malfunctioning
water softener can damage the ice
maker. If the water supply to your
refrigerator is softened, be sure the
softener is maintained to work
properly.
9.6 Cleaning the Ice Maker Bin
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. Lift the ice bin
upward, and then pull it straight out.
3. Empty the ice bin.
CAUTION!
Never use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This
could damage the ice bin. To loosen
stuck ice, use warm water.

melt and re-freeze together. Remove and
empty the ice bin if this happens.
9.7 When to remove and empty
the ice bin
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 re-freeze together after
power is restored, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
You do not use the ice dispenser
frequently. Ice cubes will freeze
together in the bin, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
Refer to Cleaning the Ice Maker Bin.
10. ICE MAKER
10.1 Ice maker operation and care
After you properly install the appliance, the
ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours.
When using the ice maker for the first
time, and in order for it to work properly,
you need to clear air from the water tubing
and the filter. If you do not flush the
system, the first ice cubes may be
discolored or have an odd flavor. Once the
ice maker begins making ice, allow the bin
to fill completely, and then discard the first
full bin of ice.
10.2 Storage Bin Capacity
This ice maker should produce between 2
and 2.5 lbs of ice per 24 hours depending
on use.
The ice bin should hold:
For a standard depth appliance: around
7.5 lbs of ice.
For a counter depth appliance: around
4.5 lbs of ice.
NOTE
The ice maker only produces the
specified rate if you set the

12. STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY
12.1 Ideas for storing food
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.
Avoid placing food in front of air ports.
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
26 ENGLISH
background
meat to be kept longer than two days
should be frozen.
Frozen foods storage
Keep the freezer compartment at 0°F
or lower.
A freezer operates most efficiently
when it is at least 2/3 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
Freeze Boost so that on your return
you can ensure your newly purchased
food designated for the freezer will be
preserved as quickly as possible.
Activating Freeze Boost 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.
12.2 Ideas for energy saving
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 appliances will help the
refrigerator operate more efficiently.
Level the refrigerator so that the doors
close tightly.
Temperature setting
Refer to Controls and Settings 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.
13. NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
13.1 Understanding the sounds
you may hear
Your new, high-efficiency appliance may
introduce unfamiliar sounds. These
sounds normally indicate your appliance is
operating correctly. Some surfaces on
floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may
make these sounds more noticeable.
NOTE
Energy efficient foam in your
appliance is not a sound insulator.
Following is a list of major components in
your appliance 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.

occur.
D. Automatic Ice maker. When ice has
been produced, you will hear ice
cubes falling into the ice bin.
E. Electronic control & automatic defrost
control. These parts can produce
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
previous models. The compressor may
have a noticeable hum or pulsating
sound during operation.
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.
K. Motorized damper. May produce
intermittent humming during operation.
L. Ice chute. When dispensing ice, you
will hear a snapping or clicking sound
when the solenoid opens and closes
the ice chute.
M. Ice dispenser. When dispensing ice
you can hear a snapping, clicking or
popping sound.

ter valve is open.
The water supply line is kinked. Ensure that the supply line does
not kink when the refrigerator is
pushed into place against the
wall.
The water filter is not seated
properly.
Remove and re-install the water
filter. Be sure to seat it fully into
the locked position.
The water filter may be clogged

Concern Potential Cause Common solution
Ice maker is not making enough
ice.
Ice maker is producing less ice
than you expect.
The water filter may be clogged
with foreign material.
If water dispenses slower than
normal, or if the filter is six
months old or older, it should be
replaced.
Saddle valve on cold water pipe
is clogged or restricted by foreign
material.
Ensure that the supply line does
not kink when the refrigerator is
pushed into place against the
wall.
Heavy traffic, opening or closing
of the doors excessively.
Turn off household water line
valve. Remove valve. Clean
valve. Replace valve if necessary.
Freezer control is set too warm
(freezer ice maker).
Set freezer control to colder set
ting to improve performance of
the ice maker (freezer ice maker).
Allow 24 hours for temperature to
stabilize.
Water pressure is extremely low.
Cut-off and cut-on pressures are
too low (well systems only).
Have someone turn up the cut-off
and cut-on pressure on the water
pump system (well systems only).
Reverse osmosis system is in re
generative phase.
It is normal for a reverse osmosis
system to be below 20 psi during
the regenerative phase.
Freezer ice maker will not stop
making ice (some models).
Ice maker bail arm is being held
down by a package in the freezer
that has fallen against ice maker.
Move any item or frozen ice
cubes that may block the bail arm
from being in the off or upward
position.
Ice cubes are located in once
spot inside the freezer ice bin.
Periodically move ice cubes
around the ice bin so that ice
maker will continue to make ice.
Ice cubes are freezing together. Ice cubes are not being used fre
quently enough or interruption of
power for prolonged time.
Remove ice container and dis
card ice. The ice maker will pro
duce fresh supply. Ice should be
used at least twice weekly to
keep the cubes separated.
Ice cubes are hollow (shells of ice
with water inside). The hollow
cubes break open in the bin and
leak their water onto existing ice,
which causes it to freeze togeth
er.
This generally occurs when
the ice maker does not get
enough water. This is usually
the result of a clogged water
filter or restricted water sup
ply.
Replace the water filter and if
the condition still occurs
check for a clogged saddle
valve, water valve not turned
on all the way or kinked water
supply line.

melt and re-freeze ice causing ice
clumping. Dispensing clumps
could damage the ice bucket.
Empty the ice bucket monthly or
regularly dispense ice. For longer
periods of time (vacation or va
cant homes) turn off the ice mak
er. See tips in Automatic Ice and
Water Dispenser.
Ice dispenser is jammed. Ice has melted and frozen around
auger due to infrequent use, tem
perature fluctuations, and/or pow
