Electrical: A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15- or 20- amp 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. grounded 3 prong
electrical outlet should be placed within 4″ (10.2 cm) of the right side
cabinets or end panel.
Water Supply: A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120
psi (207 – 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. The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on either
side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible area. If the water
shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for the water line can come
through the floor or the back wall.
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse
osmosis system going to he water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be
between 30 and 120 psi (207 – 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 – 414 kPa).
Do not install the refridgerator near an oven, radiator, or other heat source,
or in a location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).
