PARTS AND FEATURES

What’s New Behind the Doors?

Your KitchenAid® French Door Refrigerator comes equipped with various innovative storage and energy efficient features.

Energy and Normal Operating Sounds

Your new French Door Bottom Mount refrigerator has been designed to optimize energy efficiency, and better regulate temperatures to match cooling demand. You may notice that it operates differently than your previously owned refrigerator. It is normal for the high-efficiency compressor to run for extended periods of time at varying speeds in order to consume only the energy necessary for optimum efficiency. In addition, during various stages of the cooling cycle, you may hear normal operating sounds that are unfamiliar to you.

More Storage Space

The French Door Bottom Mount has the most fresh food storage space available, including a full-width, temperature controlled, pantry drawer perfect for storing veggie trays or party platters. In-Door-Ice® Ice Dispensing System The ice storage bin located in the door provides an entire extra shelf of storage space and the storage bin is removable for easy access to filtered ice.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Dual Evaporator (on some models)

The refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment have separate evaporators to provide fresh food and frozen food with separate climates. The refrigerator stays cool and humid for the optimum storage of fresh foods while the freezer stays cold and dry. Humidity from the refrigerator does not mix with dry freezer air, so frost is controlled, which reduces freezer burn. Since no air is shared between the refrigerator and freezer, the transfer of food odors and tastes from the refrigerator to the freezer is eliminated.

Pull Out Tray

This full-width slide-out shelf tucked between the crispers and the lowest shelf is perfect for leftover family-sized casserole dishes, pizza boxes, and large party platters.

Water Filter

NSF® Certified filter reduces chlorine taste and odor, particulates class I), lead, and mercury. Replacing the water filter every 6 months ensures clean, filtered drinking water.

Air Filter

An air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at reducing common food odors inside the refrigerator.

Produce Preserver (on some models)

Ethylene is a natural gas produced by fruits and vegetables to promote ripening. The Produce Preserver absorbs ethylene, to delay the over-ripening of fresh produce. As a result, certain produce items will stay fresh longer.

Water Dispenser with Measured Fill

The measured fill feature allows you to dispense the desired amount of filtered water.

LED Lighting

The LED lights do not ever need to be replaced.

Shelves with under-shelf lighting (on some models)

By moving LED lighting to a new spot under the shelves, this leading-edge technology elevates the look and feel of your refrigerator.

Door Alarm

A helpful alarm sounds when the refrigerator door or freezer drawer is left ajar.

Power Outage Indicator

If the power should go out while you are away from home, this indicator will let you know that the refrigerator has been without power.

Unpack the Refrigerator

Remove the Packaging

• Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
• Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.
• Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

When Moving Your Refrigerator: Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service, be sure to cover the door with cardboard or hardboard to avoid door damage. Always pull the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the refrigerator when trying to move it, as door damage could occur.

Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in “Refrigerator Care.”

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers: Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping.

Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:

• Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
• Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
• Bed and breakfast type environments;

Electrical Requirements

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended Grounding Method

A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only 15 or 20 A fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord. NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn Cooling OFF, and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you have finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn Cooling ON. See “Using the Controls.”

Water Supply Requirements

A cold water supply with water pressure between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow of water from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes could be hollow or irregular shaped.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa).

If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).

• Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
• Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after heavy use. The tank capacity could be too small to keep up with the requirements of the refrigerator.
  • NOTE: Faucet mounted reverse osmosis systems are not recommended.
• If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter. See “Water Filtration System.”

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

Connect the Water Supply

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

• Connect to potable water supply only.
• Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the
• International Plumbing Code and any local codes and ordinances.
• The gray water tubing on the back of the refrigerator (which is used to connect to the household water line) is a PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) tube. Copper and PEX tubing connections from the household water line to the refrigerator are acceptable, and will help avoid off-taste or odor in your ice or water. Check for leaks.
• Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.

TOOLS NEEDED:

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

• Flat-blade screwdriver
• 7⁄16" and 1/2" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
• 1/4" nut driver

NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs easier.

Connect to Water Line

IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water is connected, turn the ice maker OFF.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.
3. Use a quarter-turn shutoff valve or the equivalent, served by a 1/2" (12.7 mm) household supply line.
   • NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the refrigerator, a minimum 1/2" (12.7 mm) size household supply line is recommended.
4. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve. Use 1/4" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing to connect the shutoff valve and the refrigerator.
   • Ensure that you have the proper length needed for the job. Be sure both ends of the copper tubing are cut square.
   • Slip compression sleeve and compression nut onto copper tubing as shown. Insert end of tubing into outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.
5. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn on main water supply to flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF shutoff valve on the water pipe.
   • NOTE: Always drain the water line before making the final connection to the inlet of the water valve to avoid possible water valve malfunction.
6. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water line inlet, which is located on the back of the refrigerator cabinet as shown. Leave a coil of copper tubing to allow the refrigerator to be pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.

Connect to Refrigerator

Follow the connection instructions specific to your model.

Style 1

1. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not overtighten. Confirm copper tubing is secure by pulling on copper tubing.
2. Create a service loop with the copper tubing. Avoid kinks when coiling the copper tubing. Secure copper tubing to refrigerator cabinet with a “P” clamp.
3. Turn on water supply to refrigerator and check for leaks. Correct any leaks.

Style 2

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the short, black plastic part from the end of the water line inlet.
3. Thread the nut onto the end of the tubing. Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not overtighten.
   • NOTE: To avoid rattling, be sure the copper tubing does not touch the cabinet’s side wall or other parts inside the cabinet.
4. Install the water supply tube clamp around the water supply line to reduce strain on the coupling.
5. Turn shutoff valve ON.
6. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
7. On some models, the ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If your water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in the 1/4" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain a water strainer from your appliance dealer.

• To manually turn off the ice maker, move the control to the OFF (right) position.
• Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. The sensor will automatically stop ice production if the storage bin is full, if the door is open or the storage bin is removed. The control will remain in the ON (left) position.

3. Close the ice compartment door

Remove and Replace the Ice Storage Bin

• Remove the ice storage bin by inserting your fingers into the hole at the base of the bin and squeezing the latch to release the bin from the compartment. Lift the storage bin up and pull it straight out.
• Replace the storage bin inside the ice compartment and push down to make sure it is firmly in place.

Ice Maker in the Freezer (on some models)

Turn the Ice Maker On/Off

To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm. To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click. NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

NOTE: Turn off the ice maker before removing the ice storage bin to serve ice or to clean the bin. This will keep the ice cubes from dropping out of the ice maker and into the freezer compartment. After replacing the ice storage bin, turn on the ice maker.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately

Interior Cleaning

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mil d detergent in warm water. NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window prays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets.

3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power

Condenser Cleaning

There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy or dusty or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove the base grille.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the condenser.
4. Replace the base grille when finished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Lights

The lights in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments are LEDs which do not need to be replaced. If the lights do not illuminate when the door or drawer is opened, call for assistance or service.
