Preparing the Space:
Make sure the opening where the unit will be installed, is
properly prepared for "Cut Out" dimension. Check placement
for electrical outlet and water line. (Fig. 1)
NOTE:
For the door to open properly, it must be able to open at
least 90 degrees. For installation in a corner, a 2" filler strip is
required to ensure the 90 degree opening. The floor under the
refrigerator is to be level with the surrounding floor. To protect
the floor when moving the refrigerator, place cardboard, or
preferably a carpet remnant (backing up) on the floor.
_WARNING: Electrical Connection:
This appliance is designed to operate on a normal 115 volt,
15 amp, 60 cycle line. There should be a separate,
grounded circuit serving this appliance only. Do not use an
extension cord. Do not use any device that will alter the
electrical performance of this appliance. For the placement
of the electrical outlet refer to Fig. 1.
*Do not use aground fault circuit interupter.

Plumbing Connection:
Rough in the water line for the location (Fig. 1). Connect a
1/4" copper line to the house supply. Use a shut off valve
between the refrigerator and supply. The shut off should be
a drilled saddle valve. Do not use a self-tapping valve. The
icemaker operates on 30 to 120 PSI. Route the water line
within a 1/2" of the wall and no higher than 3" from the floor.
Allow at least 3' of excess copper tubing outside the wall or
floor for easy connection to the water valve. * Prior to
connection assure that the water supply and the copper
tubes have been flushed until the water runs clear.
Reverse Osmosis: Remove the water inlet connector from
the 'Yellow' valve and attach to the 'Blue' valve. Assure that
the water filter bypass plug is in place (See Fig. 3).
Disconnect wires from Yellow Valve.

Uncrating the Unit:
Uncrate the unit. Remove the lower shipping bolts and brackets. Slide the unit off of the crate base. Remove and
save the lower kick plate, anti-tipping brackets and mounting hardware. (Fig. 2a) Remove the grille, this
will help when moving the unit. (Fig. 2b)

Leveling:
Slide the unit in place and raise the front and rear levelers
until the unit touches the brackets. Use a 3/8" socket for
raising and lowering the unit. On each wheel housing there
are two 3/8" hex bolts. On the left side, the outside bolt will
move the rear leveler and the inside bolt will move the front
leveler. On the right side, the outside bolt adjusts the front
leveler and the inside bolt will move the rear leveler (Fig. 4).
The front levelers must be in contact with the floor. To raise
the leveling legs, turn the hex screw in the counter clockwise
direction. Place a level on lower ledge of the machine
compartment. Level the unit front to back and side to side.
This is to prevent tipping of the unit (See Fig. 7). Install the
kickplate. Locate the main power switch in the machine
compartment and toggle the switch "On". Install the grille panel.

90 °Door Stop
Both doors are designed to open 135 °. To restrict one or both
doors to a 90 opening use the door stops supplied in this kit.
With the doors closed, screw a door stop into the underside
of the lower hinge plate (Fig. 5). %,,pOOe' ])

Blocking the Unit:
If there is a solid soffit above the unit and the clearance is 1"
or less you will not need to block the unit. For installations with
clearances of more than 1", you must use the anti-tipping 2x4
and brackets provided (Fig. 6).
More than
aR 1"
Fig. 6 /
More than 1" clearance:
Use the anti-tipping kit provided with the shipping crate. Locate and
mark the 2 wall studs behind the unit. Mark where the "L" brackets
and 2x4 will be located and drill 2 pilot holes 1/8". Locate the proper
height to clear the unit. The space between the top of the unit and
bottom of the wood block must not exceed 1/4". Secure the "L"
brackets, using the provided screws, into the wall studs (,_1)).Make
sure the screws will extend 7/8" into the wall studs. Align the pilot
holes with the "L" brackets and secure the 2x4 with the screws
provided(,_,5_).

Installing Backer Panels:
Remove the door handle or trim piece on overlay models. A magnetic backed molding hides the handle or overlay trim screws. Use the
adhesive side of the packaging tape on the magnetic backed molding to pull it away from door (Fig. 8a). Remove the screws with a
phillips screwdriver (Fig. 8b). Slide the backer panel into position. The backer panel needs to be under the trim. Install the handle.
Replace the molding in the channel, and reset the magnetic backed molding. To install the backer panel on the grille remove the screws
on the top and bottom of the upper cover (Fig 8c). DO NOT REMOVE the foam. Slide the backer panel into place and replace screws
(Fig 8d). If the thickness of the backer panel is less than a 1/4", back it up with a sheet of shim material to obtain a 1t4" thickness.
Cardboard is recommended for Stainless Steel application. For panel size refer to Fig. 10.
_&,CAUTION: Do not drive screws or sharp objects into the doors.
Do not pinch door seal when reinstalling handle.
