1. Connect the household water line to the
assembled compression fitting.
- If you are using copper tubing, slip the
compression nut ( B ) (not supplied) and
ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not
supplied) as shown.
- If you are using plastic tubing ( B ) , insert the
molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing ( B )
into the compression fitting.
Do not use without the molded end (Bulb)
CAUTION
of the plastic tubing ( B ).
2. Tighten the compression nut ( B ) onto the
compression fitting.
Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( B ) .
3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage.
If you find water drops or leakage in the
connection areas, turn off the main water
supply. Check the connections and, if
necessary, tighten.
4. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter
before drinking or using the water from the
refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.)
To flush, press a large glass or cup against the
water dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it
into the kitchen sink after it is filled, and then
repeat.
5. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice
maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that
period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2
buckets of ice the freezer makes to ensure all
impurities have been removed from the water
line.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable
water source.
If you have to repair or disassemble the water line,
cut off 1/4“ of the plastic tubing to make sure you
get a snug, leak-free connection.
You can test the water line quickly using a
paper cup. Under normal conditions, the
water dispenser can fill a 5.75 oz. (170cc)
cup in about 10 seconds.
COMPLETING THE SET UP
Now that you have your new refrigerator installed
in place, you are ready to set up and enjoy the
features and functions of the appliance.
By completing the following steps, your refrigerator
should be fully operational.
1. Make sure your refrigerator is in an appropriate
location with reasonable clearance between it
and the wall. Refer to installation instructions in
this manual.
2. Once the refrigerator is plugged in, make sure the
interior light comes on when you open the doors.
3. Set the Temperature control to the coldest
temperature and wait for an hour. The freezer
will get slightly chilled and the motor will run
smoothly. Reset the refrigerator and freezer to
the temperatures you want.
4. After you plug the refrigerator in, it will take a few
hours to reach the appropriate temperature. You
can store food and drinks in the refrigerator after
the temperature is sufficiently cool.
If condensation or water drops appears on
both sides of fridge door’s central part, turn
the Energy Saver mode off after removing the
condensation. (See the explanation on Energy
Saver button in the USING THE CONTROL
PANEL.)
