12 INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
Choosing the Proper Location
Select a place where a water supply can
y
be easily connected for the automatic
icemaker.
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
WARNIN
Use two or more people to move and
y
install the refrigerator. Failure to do so
can result in back or other injury.
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving
y
the refrigerator for cleaning or service,
be sure to protect the floor. Always pull
the refrigerator straight out when moving
it. Do not wiggle or walk the refrigerator
when trying to move it, as floor damage
could occur.
Keep flammable materials and vapors,
y
such as gasoline, away from the
refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in
fire, explosion, or death.
Remove tape and any temporary labels from your
refrigerator before using. Do not remove any
warning-type labels, the model and serial number
label, or the Tech Sheet that is located under the
front of the refrigerator.
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the
area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue
can also be easily removed by rubbing a small
amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with
your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These products can damage the
surface of your refrigerator.
Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping
position. Please reinstall shelves according to
your individual storage needs.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be
leveled and installed on a solidly constructed
floor. If required, adjust the leveling legs to
compensate for unevenness of the floor. The
front should be slightly higher than the rear to
aid in door closing. Leveling legs can be turned
easily by tipping the cabinet slightly. Turn the
leveling legs to the left to raise the unit or to
the right to lower it. (See Leveling and door
AlIgnment.)
NOTE
Installing on carpeting, soft tile surfaces,
a platform or weakly supported structure
is not recommended.
The refrigerator should always be plugged
y
into its own individual properly grounded
electrical outlet rated for 115 Volts, 60 Hz,
AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes.
This provides the best performance
and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire
hazard from overheated wires. It is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
WARNIN
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
install the refrigerator in a wet or damp
area.
NOTE
The water pressure must be between
20 and 120 psi on models without a
water filter and between 43 and 121 psi
on models with a water filter.

Connecting the Water Line
Before You Begin
This water line installation is not covered by the
refrigerator warranty. Follow these instructions
carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water
damage.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in
house plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator
parts and can lead to water leakage or flooding.
Call a qualified plumber to correct water hammer
before installing the water supply line to the
refrigerator.
If you use your refrigerator before connecting
the water line, make sure the icemaker power
switch is in the OFF (O) position.
Water Pressure
A cold water supply. The water pressure must
be between 20 and 120 psi on models without
a water filter and between 43 and 121 psi on
models with a water filter.
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, this water
line installation is not covered by the refrigerator
warranty. Follow the following instructions
carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water
damage.
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 (2.8 kgf/cm2~ 4.2
kgf/cm2, less than 2.0~3.0 sec. to fill a cup of 7 oz
capacity).
If the water pressure from the reverse osmosis
system is less than 21 psi or 1.5 kgf/cm2(takes
more than 4.0 sec to fill a cup of 7 oz capacity):
Check to see if the sediment filter in
y
the reverse osmosis system is blocked.
Replace the filter if necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse
y
usage.
If the issue concerning water pressure
y
from reverse osmosis remains, call a
licensed, qualified plumber.
All installations must be in accordance
y
with local plumbing code requirements.
What You Will Need
Copper Tubing,
y¼ in. outer diameter, to
connect the refrigerator to the water
supply. Be sure both ends of the tubing
are cut square.
To determine how
y
much tubing you need:
measure the distance
from the water valve on the back of the
refrigerator to the water supply pipe.
Then, add 8 feet
(2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient extra
tubing (about 8 feet [2.4 m] coiled into 3
turns of about 10 in. [25 cm] diameter)
to allow the refrigerator to move out
from the wall after installation.
Power drill.
y
½ in. or adjustable
y
wrench.
Flat blade and Phillips
y
head screwdrivers.
Two ¼ in. outer
y
diameter compression
nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the
copper tubing to the shutoff valve and
the refrigerator water valve.
CAUTION
Do not install the icemaker tubing in
areas where temperatures fall below
freezing.
CAUTION
To prevent burns and product damange,
only connect the refrigerator water line to
a cold water supply.

20 INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
NOTE
A self piercing saddle type water valve
should not be used.
NOTE
The hookup line cannot be white, plastic
tubing. Licensed plumbers must use
only copper tubing NDA tubing #49595
or 49599 or Cross Link Polyethylene
(PEX) tubing.
If your existing copper water line has a
y
flared fitting at the end, you will need
an adapter (available at plumbing supply
stores) to connect the water line to the
refrigerator OR you can cut off the flared
fitting with a tube
cutter and then use a
compression fitting.
Shutoff valve to
y
connect to the cold water line. The shutoff
valve should have a water inlet with a
minimum inside diameter of 5/32 in. at
the point of connection to the COLD
WATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves
are included in many water supply kits.
Before purchasing,
make sure a saddle-
type valve complies
with your local
plumbing codes.
Water Line Installation Instructions
Install the shutoff valve on the nearest
frequently used drinking water line.
1SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY
Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the
pressure on the line.
2CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for
the valve that is easily
accessible. It is best to
connect into the side of a
vertical water pipe. When
it is necessary to connect
into a horizontal water
pipe, make the connection to the top or
side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid
drawing off any sediment from the water
pipe.
3DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
Drill a ¼ in. hole in
the water pipe using
a sharp bit. Remove
any burrs resulting
from drilling the hole
in the pipe. Be careful
not to allow water
to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a ¼ in.
hole may result in reduced ice production
or smaller cubes.
WARNIN
When using any electrical device
(such as a power drill) during
installation, be sure the device is
battery powered, double insulated
or grounded in a manner that will
prevent the hazard of electric shock.
