in the area.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or aking
any repairs.
NOTE: Service should be perfor ed by a qualified
technician.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, unplug the
refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker
or fuse box in order to avoid contact with a live wire
fila ent. (A burned-out light bulb ay break when
being replaced.)
NOTE: So e odels have LED interior lighting and
service should be perfor ed by a qualified
technician.
NOTE: Setting either or both controls to the OFF
position does not re ove power to the light circuit.
• When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to
the electrical source and reset the control
(Ther ostat Refrigerator Control, or Freezer
Control, or Freezer Control, depending on the
odel) to the desired setting.
• This refrigerator ust be properly installed in
accordance with the Installer Instructions that
were taped to the front of the refrigerator.
• After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch

BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (CONT.)
• Do not use drier to dry the inside, nor light a candle
to re ove odor.
• Install in places away fro the fire such as the place
where fla able gas is leaked.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or ental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed co pletely. The United States
Depart ent of Agriculture in Ho e and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You ay safely refreeze frozen foods that have
thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold—below 40°F (4°C).
…Thawed ground eats, poultry, or fish that have
any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen
and should not be eaten. Thawed ice crea
should be discarded. If the odor or color of any
food is poor or questionable, dispose of it. The
food ay be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the
quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables,
and prepared foods. The eating quality of red
eats is affected less than that of any other
foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to
save as uch of their quality as you can.
Risk of hild Entrapment
Discarded or abandoned refrigerators are
dangerous, even if they will sit for just a few
days. If you are disposing of your old refrigerator,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or
freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Do not leave the shelves
in place, as children ay
cli b inside.
CFC DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator ay have a cooling syste
that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are
believed to har stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator,
ake sure the CFC refrigerant is re oved for
proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you
intentionally release this CFC refrigerant, you can
be subject to fines and i prison ent under
provisions of environ ental legislation.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.
wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
For personal safety, this appliance must be
properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual properly grounded electrical
outlet rated for 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and
fused at 20 a peres. This provides the
best perfor ance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause a fire
hazard fro overheated wires. It is
reco ended that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance be provided.
Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with
a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension
cord. Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug.
NOTE: So e odels have LED interior lighting and
service should be perfor ed by a qualified technician.
When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to
the electrical source and reset the control
(Ther ostat, Refrigerator Control, or Freezer Control,
depending on the odel) to the desired setting.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed
(USA), 3-wire grounding-type appliance
extension cord having a grounding-type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 20 a peres ( ini u ) and 120 volts.
Use of an extension cord will increase the
clearance needed for the back of the
refrigerator.

• The water pressure ust be between 20 and
120 p.s.i. (1.4~8.4 kgf/c 2 ) on odels without
a water filter and between 43 and 121 p.s.i.
(3~8.5 kgf/c 2) on odels with a water filter.
• If water pressure does not reach 20 psi
(1.4 kgf/c 2) or falls below, it is necessary to
purchase a separate pressure pu p for nor al
auto atic ice aker and water dispensing operation.
• It is reco ended that the total length of the water
feed tube does not exceed 26 ft. (8 ).
• Install the water supply line where it will not be
affected by heat.
• If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, This water line
installation is not warranted by the refrigerator or
ice aker anufacturer. Follow next instructions
carefully to ini ize the risk of expensive water
da age.
• If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, the water
pressure to the reverse os osis syste needs
to be a ini u of 40 to 60 psi (2.8 kgf/c 2~
4.2 kgf/c 2, less than 2.0~3.0sec to fill a cup of
7oz capacity).
If the water pressure fro the reverse os osis
syste is less than 20 psi (1.4 kgf/c 2, ore than
4.0sec to fill a cup of 7oz capacity):
• Check to see whether the sedi ent filter in the
reverse os osis syste is blocked. Replace the
filter if necessary.
• Allow the storage tank on the reverse os osis
syste to refill after heavy usage.
• If the issue about water pressure fro reverse
os osis re ains, call a licensed, qualified plu ber.
IMPORTANT: Read all directions thoroughly before
you begin.
• If operating the refrigerator before installing the
water connection, turn the ice aker to the OFF
position to prevent operation without water.
• All installations ust be in accordance with local
plu bing code require ents.
• Use copper tubing and check for leaks.

re ain above freezing.
• It ay take up to 24 hours for the ice aker to begin
producing ice.
Tools Required
• Standard screwdriver
• 7/16-in. and 1/2-in. open-end wrenches or two
adjustable wrenches
• 1/4-in. nut driver
• 1/4-in. drill bit
• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)
NOTE: Refrigerator dealers offer a kit with a 1/4-in.
saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, ake sure a saddle-type valve
co plies with local plu bing codes.
Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16-in. saddle valve
which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.
NOTE: The Co onwealth of Massachusetts
Plu bing Code 248CMR shall be adhered to.
Saddle valves are illegal and use is not per itted in
Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plu ber.
Cold Water Supply
• The ice aker water valve contains a flow washer
which is used as a water pressure regulator.
• The ice aker needs to be connected to a cold water
line with water pressure between 20~120 psi
(1.4~8.4 kgf/c 2) on odels without a water filter
and between 43 and 121 p.s.i. (3~8.5 kgf/c 2) on
odels with a water filter.

17
CONNECTING THE WATER LINES
IMPORTANT: Before connecting the tubing to the water
line, unplug the refrigerator or disconnect the power.
• Turn off the ain water supply and open the nearest
faucet to relieve pressure in the line. Opening an outside
faucet ay help drain water fro the line in the house.
• Find a 1/2-in. vertical COLD water pipe near the
refrigerator.
NOTE: A horizontal pipe will work, but the following
precaution ust be taken: drill on the top of the pipe, not the
botto . This will help keep water away fro the drill and
also keep nor al sedi ent fro collecting in the valve.
• To deter ine the length of copper tubing you will need,
easure fro the connection on the lower left rear of the
refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 ft. (2.1 ) to allow for
oving the refrigerator for cleaning. Use 1/4-in. O.D.
(outside dia eter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of the
copper tubing are cut square.
• Using a drill, drill a 1/4-in. hole in the cold water pipe you
have selected.
• Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the
pipe cla p. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4-in.
drilled hole in the water pipe and the washer is under the
pipe cla p. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe
cla p screws carefully and evenly so the washer akes a
watertight seal.
Do not overtighten or you ay crush the copper tubing,
especially if soft (coiled) copper tubing is used. Now you
are ready to connect the copper tubing.
• Slip the co pression sleeve and the co pression nut onto
the copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing
into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw the
co pression nut onto the outlet end with a wrench. A flare
nut wrench works best, but an open-end wrench will
suffice. Do not overtighten.
• Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink,
and turn on the ain water supply. Flush out the tubing
until the water is clear. Turn off the shutoff valve on the
water pipe. Coil the copper tubing as shown below.
ENGLISH
IMPORTANT: Before connecting the tubing to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power cord is not
plugged into the wall outlet.
NOTE: If your refrigerator is equipped with an internal water
filter, an external in-line water filter should not be used.
• Re ove the plastic flexible cap fro the water valve.
• Place the co pression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the
end of the tubing as shown.
• Insert the end of the copper tubing into the connection as
far as possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.
IMPORTANT: Tighten any connections that leak.
Open the water at the shutoff valve.
• Plug in the refrigerator.
• Arrange the coil of copper tubing behind the refrigerator so
it does not vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or
against the wall.
• Check for leaks.
• Before connecting the water line to house, purge the
house line for 2 inute.
NOTE: It ay take a few seconds for water to begin to flow
as the internal tank fills and air clears fro the lines.
• Push the refrigerator back to the wall.
• Set the ice aker switch to the ON position.
NOTE: The ice aker will not begin to operate until it
reaches its operating te perature of 15°F (-9°C).
It will then begin operation auto atically.
