IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after the refrigerator 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 suffocation.

Safety Instructions
· DO NOT store or use gasoline, or other flammable liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read product labels for warnings regarding flammability and other hazards.
· DO NOT operate the refrigerator 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.
WARNING

Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit www.energystar.gov/ recycle for more information on recycling your old refrigerator. Before you throw away your old refrigerator/freezer: · Remove doors. · Leave shelves in place so children may
not easily climb inside. · Have refrigerant removed by a qualified
service technician.

Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
Proper Disposal of your Refrigerator or Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous ­ even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons 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 refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is removed 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.

16 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator from electrical power before connecting a water supply line to the refrigerator.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage: · Copper or Stainless Steel braided
tubing is recommended for the water supply line. Water supply tubing made of ¼ inch plastic is not recommended. 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 water softener can damage the ice maker. If your home has a water softening system, ensure the softener is maintained and working properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line connections comply with all local plumbing codes.
Before Installing the Water Supply Line, You Will Need:
· Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flatblade screwdriver, and a PhillipsTM screwdriver
· Access to a household cold water line with water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.

· A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4 mm) OD, copper or stainless steel tubing. To determine the length of tubing needed, measure the distance from the water inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator to your cold water pipe. Then add approximately 6 feet (1.8 meters), so the refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning (as shown).
· A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line to your household water system. DO NOT use a self-piercing type shutoff valve.
· Do not re-use compression fittings or use thread seal tape.
· A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting a copper water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve.
NOTE
Check with your local building authority for recommendations on water lines and associated materials prior to installing your new refrigerator. Depending on your local/state building codes, Electrolux recommends its Smart Choice® water line kit 5308815072 with a 6 ft. (1.8 meters) Stainless Steel Water Line for homes with existing valves. Please refer to www.electrolux.com for more information.
To Connect the Water Supply Line To Main Water Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power source.
2. Place the end of water supply line into a sink or bucket. Turn ON the water supply and flush the supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF the water supply at shutoff valve.
3. Remove the plastic cap from water valve inlet and discard.

17 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

4. If you use copper tubing – Slide the brass compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve) onto the water supply line. Push the water supply line into water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼ inch/6.4 mm). Slide ferrule (sleeve) into the valve inlet and finger tighten the compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT over tighten. See Figure 1.
· 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 over tighten. See Figure 2.
5. Using the steel clamp and screw, secure water supply line to rear panel of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about 2½ turns, behind the refrigerator as shown and arrange coils so they do not vibrate or wear against any other surface. Do not kink tubing.
7. Turn ON the water supply at the shutoff valve and tighten any connections that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power source.
9. To turn ice maker on, ensure the Ice Maker is enabled on display (LED will be lit) or set the ice maker’s On/ off power switch to the “ON” position (freezer ice maker).
NOTE
These instructions do not cover after market ice maker installation. Instructions in after market ice maker kit should be used.

Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can result in two or three empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may have discolored water or have an odd flavor.

NOTE
Dispensed water is not chilled. For colder water, add ice to cup or container before dispensing water.

CAUTION
For proper dispenser operation, recommended water supply pressure should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi. Excessive pressure may cause the system to malfunction.

1. Begin filling the system by pressing and holding a drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.
2. Keep the glass in this position until water comes out of the dispenser. It may take about 1½ minutes.
3. Continue dispensing water for about four minutes to flush the system and plumbing connections of any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as necessary).
NOTE
The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts off the water flow after three minutes of continuous use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the dispenser paddle.

Ice/Water Dispenser
Ice maker operation & care
After the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. The ice maker will fill the ice bin from the rear. You must dispense some ice to force the ice forward in the bin. This will allow the bin to fill completely.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin Capacity
The refrigerator ice maker should produce 2.7 to 3.2 pounds of ice per 24 hours.
The refrigerator ice bin will hold around 3.7 pounds of ice.

23 AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER

Refrigerator Ice Maker

Turning the refrigerator ice maker on and off
Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off feature on the control panel. Pressing the On/Off feature turns the ice maker on & off.
IMPORTANT
Turning off the ice maker simply disables ice making. You will still be able to dispense existing ice, and you will still be able to dispense water.
NOTE
The ice maker also has a built-in plastic signal arm that automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is full. This signal arm should not be used to manually stop the ice maker.
IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you cannot connect a water supply, set the ice maker’s On/Off feature to Off; otherwise, the ice maker’s fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when it attempts to operate without water.

Ice maker/dispenser tips
· If your refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the water supply is turned off, turn off the ice maker as described in the previous section.
· The following sounds are normal when the ice maker is operating:
– Motor running
– Ice dropping into ice bin
– Water valve opening or closing
– Running water
· If you need a large quantity of ice at one time, it is best to get cubes directly from the ice bin.
· Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor. Empty the ice bin as explained below.
· When dispensing cubed ice, it is normal to have a small quantity of little pieces along with the whole cubes.
· To avoid splashing, dispense ice into your container before adding liquids.
· It is normal for ice to fill to the top of the ice bin.
Cleaning the ice maker
CAUTION

IMPORTANT
On occasion, unusually small ice cubes may be noticed in the bucket or in dispensed ice. This could occur in normal operation of the ice maker. If you start seeing these more frequently, it may be an indication of low water pressure or the water filter needs to be replaced. As the water filter nears the end of its useful life and becomes clogged with particles, less water is delivered to the ice maker during each cycle. Remember, if it’s been six months or longer since you last changed your water filter, replace the water filter with a new one. Poor quality household water may require the filter to be changed more frequently.

If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened, be sure the softener is properly maintained. Chemicals from a water softener can damage the ice maker.

24 AUTOMATIC ICE & WATER DISPENSER

Refrigerator Ice Maker

Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals, especially prior to vacation or moving.
1. Turn off the ice maker.

CAUTION
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This could damage the ice bin and dispenser mechanism.
To loosen stuck ice, use warm water. Before replacing the ice bin, make sure it is completely dry.

IMPORTANT

Removing Ice Bin
2. Lift the ice bin upward then pull straight out to remove.
3. Empty and carefully clean the ice bin with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Rinse with clean water.
4. Allow the ice bin to dry completely before replacing in the freezer.
5. Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice maker on.
Remove and empty the ice bin if:
· An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice bin to melt and refreeze together after power is restored, jamming the dispenser mechanism.
· You do not use the ice dispenser frequently. Ice cubes will freeze together in the bin, jamming the dispenser mechanism.

When removing or replacing the ice bin, avoid rotating the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally rotated, you must realign the auger by turning it in 45 degree turns (see below) until the ice bin fits into place with the drive mechanism. If the auger is not properly aligned when replacing the ice bin, the refrigerator will not dispense ice. The refrigerator door also may not close properly causing warm air to leak into the refrigerator compartment.

33 STORING FOOD AND SAVING ENERGY

Ideas for storing foods
Refrigerator storage
· Keep the refrigerator compartment between 34°F and 40°F with an optimum temperature of 37°F.
· Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves, which reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling.
· Avoid placing food in front of air ports. (See Controls Section for illustration.)
Fruits and vegetables
· Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for longer time periods.
· Wash items and remove excess water.
· Wrap any items that have strong odors or high moisture content.
Meat
· Wrap raw meat and poultry separately and securely to prevent leaks and contamination of other foods or surfaces.
· Use the deli drawer to store meat/ poultry for short-term storage. Any meat to be kept longer than two days should be frozen.
Frozen food storage
· Keep the freezer compartment at 0°F or lower.
· A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least full.
Packaging foods for freezing
· To minimize food dehydration and quality deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags, or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).
· Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing.
· Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.

you can ensure your newly purchased food designated for the freezer will be preserved as quickly as possible.
· Activating Freeze Boost also will help your freezer more efficiently maintain the selected temperature after placing new purchases with pre- existing frozen foods.
· Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can raise the temperature of frozen foods.
· Leave a space between packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as possible.
Ideas for saving energy
Installation
· Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers.
· Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.
· Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightly.
Temperature settings
· Refer to the “Controls” section for procedures on temperature settings.
Food storage
· Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or blocking cold air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.
· Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
· Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
· Do not place a hot container directly on a cold shelf. Remember, such an extreme temperature change may damage the glass.

Loading the freezer
· Prior to grocery shopping, activate Freeze Boost so that on your return
