Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
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 A 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 or turn the control (thermostat, refrigerator, or freezer control depending on the model) to Off. Then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source. Turn cooling on or reset the control (thermostat, refrigerator, or freezer control depending on the model) to the desired setting. See “Control Descriptions” in the Quick Start Guide.

Water Supply Requirements

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.

Tools Needed: Flat-blade screwdriver

1/4″ nut driver

7/16″ and 1/2″ open-end or two 1/4″ drill bit

adjustable wrenches

Cordless drill

NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4″ (6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper or PEX tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercingtype or 3/16″ (4.76 mm) saddle valve, which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

IMPORTANT:
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Use copper or PEX tubing and check for leaks. Install copper or PEX tubing only in areas where the household temperatures will remain above freezing.

Water Pressure
A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 120 psi (207 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.
If your refrigerator has a water dispenser: After installation is complete, use the water dispenser to check the water pressure.
With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of water. If 1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement.
If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than recommended. See online “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.
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 30 and 120 psi (207 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).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 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 usage.
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 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 (crosslinked polyethylene) tube. Copper or 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. For recommended parts if PEX tubing is used instead of copper: W10505928RP (7 ft. [2.14 m] jacketed PEX), 8212547RP (5 ft. [1.52 m] PEX), or W10267701RP (25 ft. [7.62 m] PEX).
Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain above freezing.
Tools Needed: Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
Flat-blade screwdriver
7/16″ and 1/2″ open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
1/4″ nut driver
Connect to Water Line
IMPORTANT: If you turn on the refrigerator before the water line is connected, turn off the ice maker.
Style 1 (Recommended)
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″ copper or PEX household supply line.
NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the refrigerator, a minimum 1/2″ size copper or PEX household supply line is recommended.

4. Now you are ready to connect the copper or PEX tubing to the shutoff valve. Use 1/4″ (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) soft copper or PEX 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. (PEX tubing has compression sleeves and compression nuts preinstalled.) 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 or PEX tubing to meet the water line inlet, which is located on the back of the refrigerator cabinet. Leave a coil of copper or PEX tubing to allow the refrigerator to be pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.
Style 2 1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power. 2. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water. 3. Locate a 1/2″ (1.27 cm) to 1 1/4″ (3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator. IMPORTANT: Make sure it is a cold water pipe. Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve. 4. Determine the length of copper or PEX tubing you need. Measure from the connection on the lower rear corner of refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 ft. (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4″ (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper or PEX tubing. Be sure both ends of copper or PEX tubing are cut square. 5. Using a cordless drill, drill a 1/4″ (6.35 mm) hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

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. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back against the wall.
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 nearest appliance dealer.
Style 3
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the black nylon plug from the gray water tube on the rear of the refrigerator.
3. If the gray water tube supplied with the refrigerator is not long enough, a 1/4″ x 1/4″ (6.35 mm x 6.35 mm) coupling is needed in order to connect the water tubing to an existing household water line. Thread the provided nut onto the coupling on the end of the copper or PEX tubing.

Install Air Filter (on some models)
On some models, your refrigerator’s accessory packet includes an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models, the air filter is already installed at the factory. To order a replacement air filter, use part number W10311524.
The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a cleaner environment inside the refrigerator.
Installing the Air Filter
The filter should be installed behind the vented door, which is located (depending on your model) along either the rear or left interior wall near the top of the refrigerator compartment.
1. Remove the air filter from its packaging. 2. Lift open the vented door.

4. Close the vented door.
Installing the Filter Status Indicator (on some models)
The filter comes with a status indicator, which should be activated and installed at the same time the air filter is installed.
1. Place the indicator facedown on a firm, flat surface. 2. Apply pressure to the bubble on the back of the indicator, until
the bubble pops to activate the indicator. 3. Lift open the vented air filter door. On some models, there are
notches behind the door. 4. On models with notches:
Slide the indicator down into the notches, facing outward. NOTE: The indicator will not easily slide into the notches if the rear bubble has not been popped.
Close the air filter door, and check that the indicator is visible through the rectangular hole in the door.
On models without notches: Place the indicator in a visible place you will easily
remember–either inside the refrigerator or elsewhere in your kitchen or home.
Replacing the Air Filter
The disposable air filter should be replaced every 6 months, when the status indicator has completely changed from white to red. To order a replacement air filter, see ordering information in the Quick Start Guide. 1. Remove the old air filter by squeezing in on the side tabs. 2. Remove the old status indicator. 3. Install the new air filter and status indicator using the
instructions in the previous sections.
Install Produce Preserver (on some models)
Your refrigerator’s accessory packet includes a Produce Preserver, which should be installed prior to use. On some models, the Produce Preserver is already installed at the factory. To order a replacement produce preserver, use part number W10346771. The Produce Preserver absorbs ethylene, allowing the ripening process of many produce items to slow down. As a result, certain produce items will stay fresh longer.

REFRIGERATOR FEATURES Convertible Drawer Temperature Control (on some models)
The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is cooled to avoid “spot” freezing and can be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board recommended storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (­2° to 0°C). To store meat: Set the control to one of the three Meat settings to store meat at its optimal storage temperature. To store vegetables: Set the control to Veg to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures. NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the right (less cold), toward the Veg setting. Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments.
13

Crisper Humidity Control (on some models)
You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between Low and High.
LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.
HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.
Dual Evaporator (on some models)
Some models come equipped with a dual sequential evaporation system which includes two separate evaporators for the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
Dual evaporation results in higher humidity, which helps keep foods in the refrigerator from spoiling as quickly and improves food quality and freshness in the freezer due to decreased freezer burn. In addition, the dual evaporation system helps keep food smells in the refrigerator from transferring to ice in the freezer. NOTE: The dual evaporation system is always activated when your refrigerator is operating. You do not need to press any buttons to turn it on.
Water and Ice Dispensers
On how to use your water and ice dispensers, see the online “Side-by-Side Refrigerator Dispensers” Feature Guide.
NOTES: Connect to potable water supply only. The dispensing system will not operate when either door
(refrigerator or freezer) is open. Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced. Wait 72 hours for full ice production. On some models, the display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control buttons and dispenser pads have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the display screen, without changing any settings.
Flush the Water System
Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Flushing the water dispensing system forces air from the water line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water dispenser pad for 5 seconds; then release it for 5 seconds.
2. Repeat step 1 until water begins to flow. 3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.

The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Dispense at least 1 qt. (1 L) of water every week to maintain a fresh supply. If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be caused by low water pressure. With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of
water. If 1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement. If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than recommended. See “Water Supply Requirements” or online “Troubleshooting” for suggestions.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage bin. This can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage bin.
Style 1
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off: The On/Off switch, located on the left wall of the freezer door, can only be accessed when the ice storage bin has been removed. See the following section for bin removal instructions.
To turn on the ice maker, flip the switch to the On (up) position. To manually turn off the ice maker, flip the switch to the Off
(down) position. NOTE: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the storage bin from overfilling during normal operation.

IMPORTANT: The leveler brackets are mounted behind the hinges. If you remove the hinges, make sure that the leveler brackets are replaced when reinstalling the hinges.
Door Closing, Leveling, and Alignment
Your refrigerator has two adjustable front feet–one on the right and one on the left. In most cases, the refrigerator should be steady when both feet are touching the floor. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or if you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below: 1. Use a bubble level to check levelness of floor where the rear
side of the refrigerator will rest. If the refrigerator is not leveled, adjust or add the shim on flooring to create a leveled floor for the rear side wheels. A leveled rear side prevents the refrigerator cabinet from forming a twist. 2. Move the refrigerator into its final location. If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base grille as shown below.

4. Use a 1/4″ open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the leveling feet. Turn the leveling foot to the left to raise that side of the product, or turn it to the right to lower that side of the product. Raise the wheels while one person pushes on the refrigerator to lift from front side. Use the bubble level on top of the refrigerator or on its side to level the refrigerator. Check bubble level and at the same time observe the gaps and squareness to the adjacent cabinets, furniture or trim. If adjacent furnishings are not level, it may not be possible to achieve even gaps when refrigerator is level.
NOTE: Both leveling feet should be snug against the floor, and the rollers should not touch the floor. This keeps the refrigerator from rolling forward when opening the doors. Continue adjusting until all four corners are steady without rock.
5. Open both doors again and check that they close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning the leveling feet to the left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling feet the same amount.
NOTE: Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, turn the leveling feet to the right until they are no longer touching the ground. This will allow the refrigerator to roll more easily.
Door Alignment
A refrigerator that is not level from side to side may appear to have doors that are not properly aligned. If the doors appear this way, use the instructions in the previous section to check the leveling.
The doors are designed to be slightly different heights when the refrigerator is empty, in order to account for the weight of food that will be placed on the doors. If the doors are still not aligned after checking the leveling and loading the refrigerator with food, follow the steps below to adjust the door alignment.
1. If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base grille.

3. The two leveling feet are located on the brackets on each side of the product as shown below.

A. Bottom Hinge

C. Leveling Foot

B. Leveler Bracket

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This makes it easier to make adjustments.
