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.

• 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

11. STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY
11.1 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
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.
11.2 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.

12. NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
12.1 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.
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.
E. Electronic control & automatic defrost
control. These parts can produce
snapping or clicking sound when
turning the cooling system on and off.
F. Compressor. Modern, high-efficiency
compressors run much faster than
previous models. The compressor may
have a noticeable hum or pulsating
sound during operation.
G. Water valve. Makes a buzzing sound
each time it opens to fill the ice maker.
H. Drain pan (not removable). You may
hear water dripping into the drain pan
during the defrost cycle.
I. Motorized damper. May produce
intermittent humming during operation.
