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 then
disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you
are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source
and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control
depending on the model) to the desired setting.
Removing the Door Handles
(on some models)
Apply firm pressure with hand on face of trim. Slide top trim up
and bottom trim down away from handle, then lift off of shoulder
screws. Remove handle screws.
Water System Preparation
(on some models)
Please read before using the water system.
Immediately after installation, follow the steps below to make
sure that the water system is properly cleaned.
1. Open the freezer door and turn off the ice maker by lifting up
the wire shutoff arm as shown.
NOTES:
■ If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the
base grille filter is properly installed and the cap is in the
horizontal position.
■ Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system.
2. Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar
until the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by
dispensing and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water.
Cleaning the system will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes
and will help clear air from the line. Additional flushing may be
required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out
of the dispenser.
