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.
A 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
the 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).

A solid soffit must be within 1″ (2.5 cm)
maximum above the refrigerator. If the solid
soffit is higher than 1″ (2.5 cm) or one is not
available, then the refrigerator must be
braced to prevent tipping during use.
If the anti-tip boards are needed, they must be
attached to the rear wall studs 80″ to 90″ (203
to 229 cm) above the floor.
NOTE: A clearance of 1/2″ (1.3 cm) must be
maintained in front of the refrigerator’s side
trim in order for the top grille to be removed.
