Proper Disposal of your Appliance Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old unit, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit energystar.gov/recycle for more information on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw away your old unit :

  • Remove doors.
  • Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
  • Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service technician.

WARNING
Follow these guidelines to ensure safety mechanisms in this appliance will operate properly.

Electrical information

  • Plug the unit into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of the appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. Plug it directly into a properly grounded
    3- prong receptacle. You must install the receptacle in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting the unit to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit.

  • Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

  • If the power cord is damaged, an authorized service technician should replace it to prevent any risk.

  • Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull it straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.

  • Unplug the appliance before cleaning and before replacing the AC LED light bulb to avoid electrical shock. Use only a 5-watt or less AC LED light bulb.

  • Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10% or more. Operating the refrigerator with insufficient power can damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered under your warranty.

  • Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the unit from being turned off accidentally.

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.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

Ice Maker Models Only

  • NOTE
    Automatic ice makers are optional accessories you may install in most models at any time. Visit Frigidaire.com for information about Ice Maker Kit IM1900MD.

  • 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:

  • Use stainless steel braided tubing for the water supply line. Do not use water supply tubing made of ¼” plastic. Plastic tubing greatly increases the potential for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage if you use plastic tubing for the supply line.
  • DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas where temperatures fall below freezing.
  • Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker is connected to soft water, ensure that the softener is maintained and working properly.

IMPORTANT
Ensure your water supply line connections comply with all local plumbing codes.

Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

  • Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade screwdriver, and Phillips screwdriver
  • Access to a household cold water line with water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
  • A water supply line made of stainless steel tubing. To determine the length of tubing needed, measure the distance from the ice maker inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator to your cold water pipe, so the refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning.
  • 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 reuse compression fitting or use thread seal tape.

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, we recommend for homes with existing valves Smart Choice® water line kit 5304437642 (with a 6′ Stainless Steel Water Line), and for homes without an existing valve, we recommend Smart Choice® water line kit 5304493869 (with a 6’ Polyline Waterline). Please refer to Frigidaire.com for more information.

To Connect the Water Supply Line To the Ice Maker Inlet Valve

  1. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical 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 the water is clear. Turn OFF the water supply at the shutoff valve.

  3.  Remove the plastic cap from the water valve inlet and discard the cap.

  4. If you use copper tubing, slide brass compression nut, and then the ferrule (sleeve) onto the water supply line. Push the water supply line into the water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼” / 6.4 mm). Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten the compression nut onto the valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See below.
    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 ½ turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See below.

  5. With the steel clamp and screw, secure the water supply line (copper tubing only) to the rear panel of refrigerator as shown.

  6. Coil the excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about 2½ turns, behind the refrigerator as shown and arrange the coils so they do not vibrate or wear against any other surface.

  7. To turn the ice maker on, press the ice maker’s On/Off power switch.

  8. Turn ON the water supply at the shutoff valve and tighten any connections that leak.

  9. Reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical power source.

ICE MAKER

NOTE
Automatic ice makers are optional accessories you may install in most models at any time. Visit Frigidaire.com for information about Ice Maker Kit IM1900MD.

  • If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will produce minimal ice during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately 1 to 2 days to fill the ice container.

  • New plumbing connections may cause the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.

  • IMPORTANT

  • The ice maker is shipped in the On position. To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook up the water supply immediately or turn the ice maker Off. If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not connected, the water valve will make a loud chattering noise.

  • Turning your Ice Maker On
    After completely connecting the plumbing, you must open the water supply valve. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Press the ice maker’s On/Off button.

  • Turning your Ice Maker Off
    To stop the ice maker, press the ice makers’ On/Off button. The ice maker regulates the ice production and stops making ice when full and starts again when ice is low in the ice container.

  • ICE PRODUCTION : WHAT TO EXPECT
    The ice maker produces 2 to 2.5 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 10 cubes every 100 to 160 minutes.

  • NOTE
    Set the freezer to a colder setting to increase the output of the ice maker. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize.

  • CAUTION
    Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

Freezer Temperature Adjustment
You can leave the freezer control at the factory preset (Recommended) or adjust as desired.

  • Adjusting the temperature control knob to Cold elevates the temperature inside the freezer.
  • Adjusting the temperature control knob to Coldest lowers the temperature inside the freezer.
  • The settings do not specifically refer to a certain temperature.

Refrigerator Temperature Adjustment
You can leave the refrigerator control at the factory preset (Recommended) or adjust as desired to any of the 5 positions.

  • Adjusting the temperature control knob to Cold elevates the temperature inside the refrigerator.
  • Adjusting the temperature control knob to Coldest lowers the temperature inside the refrigerator.
  • The settings do not specifically refer to a certain temperature.

  2. Hold the handle, and lift the drawer to completely pull the crisper out.

CARE AND CLEANING

Protecting your investment
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains appearance and prevents odor build- up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean the freezer and refrigerator compartments at least twice a year. When cleaning, take the following precautions:

  • Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with bleach to clean stainless steel.
  • Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
  • Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.
  • Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface.

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet liners. Do not use paper towels, metallic scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials or strong alkaline solutions.

Defrosting
The unit defrosts automatically due to air cooling. You can remove frost by first disconnecting the appliance from the electrical power source, and wipe it with a dry towel.

  • NOTE
    If you set your temperature controls to turn off cooling, power to lights and other electrical components will continue until you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

  • CAUTION
    Pull the refrigerator straight out to move it. Shifting it from side to side may damage flooring. Be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.

  • IMPORTANT
    If you store or move your refrigerator in freezing temperatures, be sure to completely drain the water supply system. Failure to do so could result in water leaks when the refrigerator is put back into service. Contact a service representative to perform this operation.
