IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For your Safety
• DO NOT store or use gasoline, or other
ammableliquidsinthevicinityofthisor
any other appliance. Read product labels
forwarningsregardingammability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
nishesiftheycomeincontactwithother
appliances or furniture.
WARNING
Please read all instructions before using this
refrigerator.
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.
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 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
Electrical information
• The refrigerator must be plugged into its
own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp,
AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of
theapplianceisequippedwithathree-
prong grounding plug for your protection
against electrical shock hazards. It must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded
three prong receptacle. The receptacle
must be installed in accordance with local
codesandordinances.Consultaqualied
electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to
a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do
not use an extension cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by an authorized service
technician to prevent any risk.
IMPORTANT
Pressing and holding the On/Off button for
three seconds, located on the left side of
the temperature control panel will disable
your refrigerator’s cooling system, but does
not disconnect the power to the light bulb
and other electrical components. To turn off
power to your refrigerator you must unplug
the power cord from the electrical outlet.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury or property
damage, handle tempered glass shelves
carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if
nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden
temperature change.
• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on
thepowercord.Alwaysgriptheplugrmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to
prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the voltage
varies by 10% or more. Operating the
refrigeratorwithinsufcient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 refrigerator from being turned
off accidentally.
IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a
cooling system that used CFCs
orHCFCs(chlorouorocarbonsor
hydrochlorouorocarbons).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qualiedtechnician.If
you intentionally release refrigerant, you may
besubjecttonesandimprisonmentunder
provisions of environmental legislation.
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qualied
service technician.

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.
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, Frigidaire recommends
for homes with existing valves its Smart
Choice®water line kit 5305513409 (with
a 6 ft. Stainless Steel Water Line) and for
homes without an existing valve, Frigidaire
recommends its Smart Choice®water line
kit 5305510264 (with a 20 ft. Copper Water
Line with self-tapping saddle valve). Please
refer to www.frigidaire.com/store for more
information.
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 to be
used. 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 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 that your water supply line
connections comply with all local plumbing
codes.
CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Before Installing The Water Supply Line,
You Will Need:
• Basic Tools:adjustablewrench,at-blade
screwdriver, and 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 mm)
OD, copper or 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. Then add
approximately 7 feet (2.1 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reusecompressionttingoruse
thread seal tape.
• A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for
connecting a copper water supply line to the
ice maker inlet valve.

15
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice
Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power
source.
2. Place end of water supply line into sink or
bucket.TurnONwatersupplyandush
supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF
water supply at shutoff valve.
3. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet
and discard cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide brass
compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve)
onto water supply line. Push water
supply line into water valve inlet as far
as it will go (¼ inch/6 mm). Slide ferrule
(sleeve)intovalveinletandngertighten
compression nut onto valve. Tighten
another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT
overtighten. See Figure 1.
If you use stainless steel tubing - The
nut and ferrule are already assembled on
the tubing. Slide compression nut onto
valveinletandngertightencompression
nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn
with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See
Figure 2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water
supply line (copper tubing only) to rear
panel of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper
tubing only), about 2½ turns, behind
refrigerator as shown and arrange coils so
they do not vibrate or wear against any
other surface.
7. Turn ON water supply at shutoff valve and
tighten any connections that leak.

CONTROLS
The Sabbath Mode is a feature that disables
portions of the refrigerator and its controls
in accordance with observance of the weekly
Sabbath and religious holidays within the
Orthodox Jewish community.
Sabbath Mode is turned ON and OFF by
pressing and holding both the freezer “∨” and
refrigerator “∧”indicatorsforveseconds.The
display shows “Sb” while in Sabbath mode.
In the Sabbath Mode, the High Temp alarm
(some models) is active for health reasons. If
a high temperature alarm is activated during
this time, for example due to a door left ajar,
the alarm will sound intermittently for about
10 minutes. The alarm will then silence on
its own and a red high temperature icon will
display. The high temp icon will continue to
display, even if the door is closed, until the
Sabbath mode is exited and the icon reset.
The refrigerator will function normally once
the door is closed, without any violation of the
Sabbath/Holidays.

usage and a complete list of models
