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 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 or 20 ampere 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.
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protected outlet, nuisance
tripping of the power supply may occur, resulting in loss of
cooling. Food quality and flavor may be affected. If nuisance
tripping has occurred, and if the condition of the food appears
poor, dispose of it.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator
or Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and turn OFF
the Power On/Off Switch (see “Using the Controls” section in the
Use and Care Guide) or disconnect power at the circuit breaker
box.
When you are finished, turn ON the Power On/Off Switch (see
“Using the Controls” section in the Use and Care Guide) or
reconnect power at the circuit breaker box. Then reset the
control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending
on the model) to the desired setting.
Water Supply Requirements
Read all directions carefully before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
■ If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
■ All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
■ Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install the copper
tubing only in areas where the household temperatures will
remain above freezing.
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄₄ in.
(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆ in.
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Cold water supply
Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure
between 15 and 100 psi (103 - 690 kPa). If you have questions
about your water pressure, call your utility company.
Tipping Radius
Before bringing refrigerator into home, be sure you have
adequate ceiling height to stand refrigerator upright.
NOTES:
■ Dolly wheel height must be added to tipping radius when a
dolly is used.
■ To reduce the tipping radius, see the “Reduce Tipping
Radius” section.
Forward Tipping Radius (same for all models)
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
Do not use an extension cord.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not remove ground prong.
