This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is combustible.
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts
of the refrigerating circuit are damaged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or
cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of
ignition and air out the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.
In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating
circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the
amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 10.8 square feet (1 square meter) in size for
every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your
particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an
appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Supplies Needed
Copper or PEX Tubing, ¼ in. outer diameter, to
connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be
sure both ends of the tubing are cut square. To
determine how 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.

Leveling and Door
Alignment
Leveling
The refrigerator has two front leveling legs. Adjust
the legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or side-
to side. If the refrigerator seems unsteady, or the
doors do not close easily,
tilt using the instructions below:
1 Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that
side of the refrigerator or to the right to lower
it. It may take several turns of the leveling leg
to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE
wrench will suffice. Do not over-tighten.
2 Open both doors and check to make sure that
they close easily. If the doors do not close
easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the
rear by turning both leveling legs to the left. It
may take several more turns, and be sure to
turn both leveling legs the same amount.
Door Alignment
Both the left and right refrigerator doors have an
adjustable nut, located on the bottom hinge, to
raise and lower them to align properly.
If the space between the doors is uneven, follow
the instructions below to align the doors evenly:
Use the wrench (included with the owner's
manual) to turn the nut in the door hinge to adjust
the height.
1 Open the door and use the wrench to loosen
the keeper nut by turning it to the left.
