IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Proper Disposal of your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or aban-
doned appliances are still dangerous –
even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If
you are getting rid of your old unit, please
follow the instructions below to help pre-
vent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appli-
ance recycling/disposal methods. Check
with your utility company or visit ener-
gystar.gov/recycle for more information
on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw
away your appliance:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in
place so children
may not easily
climb inside.
• Have refrigerant
removed by a qualified
service technician.
Safety Instructions
• DO NOT store or use gasoline, or
other flammable liquids, or aerosols
within or in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance. Read product labels
for warnings regarding flammability
and other hazards.
• DO NOT operate the unit 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
This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic
bags, and any exterior wrapping material
immediately after the appliance 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.
IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old unit may have a cooling system
that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluoro-
carbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons).
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 ap-
pliance, 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.
WARNING
Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage compartments of the
appliance unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
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" (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� (2.1 m), so the refrigerator can be
moved out for cleaning.
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice
Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect the refrigerator from
electrical power source.
2. Place the end of the water supply
line into a sink or bucket. Turn ON
the water supply and flush the supply
line until the water is clear. Turn OFF
the water supply at the shuto valve.
3. Remove the plastic cap from the wa-
ter valve inlet and discard the cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide the
brass compression nut, and then
the ferrule (sleeve) onto the water
supply line. Push the water supply
line into the water valve inlet as far
as it will go (¼"/6.4 mm). Slide the
ferrule (sleeve) into the valve inlet
and finger tighten the compression
nut onto the valve. Tighten another
half turn with a wrench; DO NOT
overtighten. See Figure 1.
• 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 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.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can
cause death or severe personal injury,
disconnect the unit from electrical pow-
er source before connecting a water
supply line to the appliance.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• Use Copper or Stainless Steel braid-
ed tubing for the water supply line.
Frigidaire does not recommend wa-
ter supply tubing made of ¼" plastic.
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
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 connec-
tions comply with all local plumbing codes.
NOTE
Check with your local building authori-
ty for recommendations on water lines
and associated materials prior to in-
stalling your new refrigerator. Depend-
ing on your local/state building codes,
Frigidaire recommends for homes with
existing valves its Smart Choice
®
water
line kit 5304490728 (with a 6�Stain-
less Steel Water Line) and for homes
without an existing valve, Frigidaire
recommends its Smart Choice
®
water
line kit 5304490717 (with a 20�copper
water line with self-tapping saddle
valve). Please refer to Frigidaire.com for
more information.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
If you use braided flexible stainless
steel tubing - The nut is already
assembled on the tubing. Slide the
nut onto the valve inlet and finger
tighten the nut onto valve. Tighten
another half turn with a wrench; DO
NOT overtighten. See Figure 2.
5. With the steel clamp and screw,
secure the water supply line (copper
tubing only) to the rear panel of
refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil the excess water supply line
(copper tubing only), about 2½ turns,
behind refrigerator as shown and
arrange coils so they do not vibrate or
wear against any other surface.
7. Turn ON the water supply at shuto
valve and tighten any connections
that leak.

Ice Maker/Dispenser Tips
• Ice cubes stored too long may
develop an odd flavor. Empty the ice
container as explained in Cleaning the
Ice Storage Bin.
• Occasionally shake the ice container
to keep ice separated.
• If your refrigerator is not connected to
a water supply or the water supply is
turned o, turn O 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
- Ice loosening from tray
- Running water
• When dispensing ice, you will hear a
snapping or clicking sound when the
ice chute opens and closes.
• Turn O the ice maker when cleaning
the freezer and during vacations. If
you turn O the ice maker for a long
period of time, you should also turn
o the water supply valve.
Cleaning the Ice Storage Bin
Clean the ice storage bin at regular
intervals, particularly before you take a
vacation or move.
To clean the ice storage bin:
1. Turn O the ice maker.
2. Remove the ice storage bin by lifting
up and out.
3. Empty and carefully clean the ice
storage bin with mild detergent.
Rinse with clear water. Do not use
harsh or abrasive cleaners.
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 main-
tained to work properly.
CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp
instrument to break up the ice. This
could damage the ice storage bin and
dispenser mechanism.
4. Allow the ice storage bin to dry com-
pletely before replacing it in the freezer.
5. Remove ice chips and clean the ice
storage bin, shelf and the freezer
door chute.
6. Replace the ice storage bin. Turn On
the ice maker to resume ice production.
Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:
• An extended power failure (1 hour or
longer) causes ice cubes in the ice
storage bin to melt and freeze togeth-
er, 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 storage bin and shake
to loosen the cubes or clean as
explained above.
AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER
Auger
IMPORTANT
When removing or replacing the ice stor-
age bin, avoid rotating the auger in the
ice storage bin. If the auger is accidental-
ly rotated, you must realign the auger by
turning it in 45 degree turns (see below)
until the ice storage bin fits into place
with the drive mechanism If the auger is
not properly aligned when replacing the
ice storage bin, the refrigerator will not
dispense ice. The freezer door also may
not close properly causing warm air to
leak into the freezer compartment.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
Understanding the Sounds you
may Hear
Your new, high-eciency unit may intro-
duce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds
normally indicate your appliance is oper-
ating correctly. Some surfaces on floors,
walls, and kitchen cabinets may make
these sounds more noticeable.
Following is a list of major components
in your unit 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 be-
ing 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 Condenser fan You may hear air be-
ing forced through the condenser.
E Compressor Modern, high-eciency
compressors run much faster than in
the past. The compressor may have a
high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
F Water valve Makes a buzzing sound
each time it opens to fill the ice maker.
G Drain pan (not removable) You may
hear water dripping into the drain
pan during the defrost cycle.
H Condenser May create minimal
sounds from forced air.
I Motorized damper May produce in-
termittent humming during operation.
J Ice chute When dispensing ice, you
will hear a snapping or clicking sound
when the solenoid opens and closes
the ice chute.
K Ice Maker When ice has been pro-
duced, you will hear ice cubes falling
into the ice bin.
