IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a cool-
ing system that used CFCs or HCFCs
(chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluo-
rocarbons). 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 refrig-
erator, make sure the refrigerant is re-
moved 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.
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Instructions
• DO NOT store or use gasoline,
or other flammable liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other
appliance. Read product labels for
warnings regarding flammability and
other hazards.
• DO NOT operate the refrigerator in
the presence of explosive fumes.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts
of automatic ice maker.
• Remove all staples from the carton.
Staples can cause severe cuts, and
also destroy finishes if they come
in contact with other appliances or
furniture.
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 suocation.
WARNING
Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage compartments of the
appliance unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.
Proper Disposal of your
Refrigerator or Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation 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.

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.
• 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 aected if
the voltage varies by 10% or more.
Operating the refrigerator with
insucient power can damage the

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 o
accidentally.
IMPORTANT
Pressing and holding the On/O button
for three seconds, located on the tem-
perature 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 o power to your refrigerator
you must unplug the power cord from
the electrical outlet.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
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.
NOTE
Check with your local building au-
thority for recommendations on water
lines and associated materials prior
to installing your new refrigerator.
Depending on your local/state build-
ing codes, Frigidaire recommends for
homes with existing valves its Smart
Choice
®
water line kit 5305513409 with
a 6ft. (1.8 meters) Stainless Steel Water
Line, and for homes without an existing
valve Frigidaire recommends its Smart
Choice
®
water line kit 5305510264 with
a 20ft. (6meters) Copper Water Line
with self-tapping saddle valve. Please
refer to www.frigidaire.com/store for
more information.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property 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 line.
• DO NOT install water supply tubing
in areas where temperatures fall
below freezing.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning
water softener can damage the ice
maker. If your home has a water
softening system, ensure the softener
is maintained and working properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line con-
nections 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 100psi.
• A water supply line made of ¼inch
(6.4mm) 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 6 ft. (1.8 meters) , so
the refrigerator can be moved out
for cleaning (as shown).
• A shuto valve to connect the water
supply line to your household water
system. DO NOT use a self-piercing
type shuto valve.
• Do not re-use 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.
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 shuto valve.
3. Remove plastic cap from water valve
inlet and discard cap.
18
IMPORTANT
Your refrigerator’s water supply system
includes several tubing lines, a water
filter, and a water valve. To ensure that
your water dispenser works properly,
this system must be completely filled
with water when your refrigerator is
first connected to the household water
supply line.
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
NOTE
These instructions do not cover after
market ice maker installation. Instruc-
tions in after market ice maker kit
should be used.

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 (¼inch/6.4mm). Slide ferrule
(sleeve) into valve inlet and finger
tighten compression nut onto valve.
Tighten another half turn with a
wrench; DO NOT over tighten. See
Figure 1.
• If you use braided flexible stainless
steel tubing - The nut is already
assembled on the tubing. Slide nut
onto valve inlet and finger tighten
nut onto valve. Tighten another half
turn with a wrench; DO NOT over
tighten. See Figure 2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure
water supply line to rear panel of
refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line
(copper tubing only), about
2½turns, behind refrigerator as
shown and arrange coils so they
do not vibrate or wear against any
other surface. Do not kink tubing.
7. Turn ON water supply at shuto
valve and tighten any connections
that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical
power source.

AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER
NOTE
The water dispenser has a built-in de-
vice that shuts o the water flow after
three minutes of continuous use. To
reset this shuto device, simply release
the dispenser paddle.
CAUTION
For proper dispenser operation,
recommended water supply pressure
should fall between 30psi and 100psi.
Excessive pressure may cause the system
to malfunction.
Priming the water supply system
1. Begin filling the system by pressing
and holding a drinking glass against
the water dispenser paddle.
2. Keep the glass in this position until
water comes out of the dispenser. It
may take about 1½ minutes.
3. Continue dispensing water for about
four minutes to flush the system
and plumbing connections of any
impurities (stopping to empty the
glass as necessary).
Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly
and has cooled for several hours, the ice
maker can produce ice within 24hours.
The ice maker will fill the ice bin from the
rear. You must dispense some ice to force
the ice forward in the bin. This will allow
the bin to fill completely.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin Capacity
In a Standard Depth model, the
refrigerator ice maker should produce 3.0
to 3.4 pounds of ice per 24 hours. In a
Counter Depth model, the refrigerator ice
maker should produce 2.7 to 3.2 pounds
of ice per 24 hours.
In a Standard Depth model, the
refrigerator ice bin will hold around 5
pounds of ice. In a Counter Depth model,
the refrigerator ice bin will hold around
3.7 pounds of ice.
Using the dispenser 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 or three empty ice maker cycles.
Furthermore, if the system is not flushed,
the first ice cubes may have discolored
water or have an odd flavor.
NOTE
Dispensed water is not chilled. For
colder water, add ice to cup or contain-
er before dispensing water.

AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER
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/O feature to O;
otherwise, the ice maker’s fill valve may
make a loud chattering noise when it
attempts to operate without water.
IMPORTANT
On occasion, unusually small ice cubes
may be noticed in the bucket or in dis-
pensed 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
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.
Ice maker/dispenser tips
• If your refrigerator is not connected
to a water supply or the water
supply is turned o, turn o the ice
maker as described in the previous
section.
• 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
• If you need a large quantity of ice
at one time, it is best to get cubes
directly from the ice bin.
• Ice cubes stored too long may
develop an odd flavor. Empty the ice
bin as explained below.
• When dispensing cubed ice, it is
normal to have a small quantity of
little pieces along with the whole
cubes.
• To avoid splashing, dispense ice into
your container before adding liquids.
• It is normal for ice to fill to the top of
the ice bin.
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.
IMPORTANT
Turning o the ice maker simply dis-
ables ice making. You will still be able to
dispense existing ice, and you will still be
able to 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 manu-
ally stop the ice maker.
Turning the refrigerator ice
maker on and o
Ice production is controlled by the ice
maker’s On/O feature on the control
panel. Pressing the On/O feature turns
the ice maker on & o.
28
AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER
Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular
intervals, especially prior to vacation or
moving.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This
could damage the ice bin and dispenser
mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water.
Before replacing the ice bin, make sure
it is completely dry.
IMPORTANT
When removing or replacing the ice
bin, avoid rotating the auger in the ice
bin. If the auger is accidentally rotated,
you must realign the auger by turning
it in 45degree turns (see below) until
the ice bin fits into place with the drive
mechanism. If the auger is not properly
aligned when replacing the ice bin, the
refrigerator will not dispense ice. The
refrigerator door also may not close
properly causing warm air to leak into
the refrigerator compartment.
Adjusting Ice Bin Auger
Removing Ice Bin
1. Turn o the ice maker.
2. Lift the ice bin upward then pull
straight out to remove.
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 refreeze 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.

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°F.
• Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator
shelves, which reduces air circulation
and causes uneven cooling.
• Avoid placing food in front of air
ports. (See Controls Section for
illustration.)
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 eciently
when it is at least ⅔ 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 o-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 eciently
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
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
eciently.
• 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.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
Understanding the sounds you
may hear
Your new, high-eciency 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 o.
F. Condenser fan You may hear air
being forced through the condenser.
K
Features vary by model
NOTE
Energy ecient foam in your refrigera-
tor is not a sound insulator.
NOTE
During automatic defrost cycle, a red
glow in the back wall vents of your
freezer compartment is normal.
G. Compressor Modern, high-eciency
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.
K. Motorized damper May produce a
light humming during operation.
L. Ice dispensing paddle When
dispensing ice, you will hear a
snapping, clicking, or popping sound.

fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets, or cabinet liners. Do
not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials.
NOTE
If you set your temperature controls to turn o cooling, power to lights and other
electrical components will continue until you unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet.
Protecting your investment
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains its appearance and prevents odor build-up.
• Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
• Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Concern Potential Cause Common Solution
Automatic Ice Maker (Cont’d)
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.
• Saddle valve on cold
water pipe is clogged
or restricted by foreign
material.
• Heavy trac, opening
or closing of the doors
excessively.
• Freezer control is set
too warm (freezer ice
maker).
• Water pressure is
extremely low. Cut-o
and cut-on pressures
are too low (well
systems only).
• Reverse osmosis
system is in
regenerative phase.
• In a Standard Depth model, the
refrigerator ice maker should
produce 3.0 to 3.4 pounds of ice
per 24 hours. In a Counter Depth
model, the refrigerator ice maker
should produce 2.7 to 3.2 pounds
of ice per 24 hours.
• In a Standard Depth model, the
refrigerator ice bin will hold around
5 pounds of ice. In a Counter Depth
model, the refrigerator ice bin will
hold around 3.7 pounds of ice.
• If water dispenses slower than
normal, or if the filter is six months
old or older, it should be replaced.
• Ensure that the supply line does
not kink when the refrigerator is
pushed into place against the wall.
• Turn o household water line valve.
Remove valve. Clean valve. Replace
valve if necessary.
• Set freezer control to colder setting
to improve performance of the ice
maker (freezer ice maker). Allow 24
hours for temperature to stabilize.
• Have someone turn up the cut-o
and cut-on pressure on the water
pump system (well systems only).
• It is normal for a reverse osmosis
system to be below 20 psi during
the regenerative phase.
Freezer ice

TROUBLESHOOTING
Concern Potential Cause Common Solution
Automatic Ice Maker (Cont’d)
Ice cubes
are freezing
together.
• Ice cubes are not being
used frequently enough
or interruption of power
for prolonged time.
• 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
together.
• Remove ice container and discard
ice. The ice maker will produce
fresh supply. Ice should be used
at least twice weekly to keep the
cubes separated.
• 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 supply. 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.
