UNPACKING YOUR APPLIANCE
!CAUTION
!WARNING
WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and su󰀨ocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please fol-
low the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
• Take o󰀨 the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
!WARNING
EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD
Use two or more people to move product.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury.
Remove Interior Packaging
Your appliance has been packed for shipment with all parts
that could be damaged by movement securely fastened.
Remove internal packing materials and any tape holding in-
ternal components in place. The owners manual is shipped
inside the product in a plastic bag along with the warranty
registration card, and other accessory items.
Important
Keep your carton and packaging until your appliance has
been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condi-
tion. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed as
proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of all
items responsibly.
Note to Customer
This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly
inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its
safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance
of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in
transit must be made to the retailer.
DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE
MANUFACTURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE
RETAILER.
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other
than an upright position for any period of time, allow the ap-
pliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before
plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor.
Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage
to internal parts.

Electrical Connection
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply
cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in ac-
cordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable
local codes and ordinances (see gure below). If the circuit
does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the respon-
sibility and obligation of the customer to provide the proper
power supply. The third ground prong should not, under
any circumstances, be cut or removed.
NOTE
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nui-
sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down.
GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-
ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-
less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.
ELECTRICAL
Do not remove
ground prong
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
They can be hazardous and can degrade product
performance.
• This appliance should not, under any circumstanc-
es, be installed to an ungrounded electrical supply.
• Do not remove the grounding prong from the power
cord.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the
appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock,
which may result in severe injury or death.

If necessary, to gain clearance inside the rough-in
opening, a hole can be cut through the adjacent
cabinet and the power cord routed through this hole to
a power outlet. Another way to increase the available
opening depth is to recess the power outlet into the
rear wall to gain the thickness of the power cord plug.
Not all recessed outlet boxes will work for this applica-
tion as they are too narrow, but a recessed outlet box
equivalent to Arlington #DVFR1W is recommended for

General Installation
LEVELING INFORMATION
1. Use a level to
conrm the unit is
level. Level should
be placed along top
edge and side edge
as shown.
2. If the unit is not level, adjust the legs on the corners of
the unit as necessary.
3. Conrm the unit is level after each adjustment and
repeat the previous steps as needed.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room oor is higher than the oor in the cutout
opening, adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear
height of 1⁄8” (3 mm) less than opening’s rear height.
Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front
legs. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the
opening. Readjust the front legs to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord.
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not
to entangle the cord or water and drain lines, if
applicable.
3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to
side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top
surface should be approximately 1⁄8” (3 mm) below
the countertop.
4. Install the anti-tip bracket.
5. Remove interior packing material and wipe out the
inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.

SIDE-BY-SIDE AND STACKING INSTALLATIONS
Side-by-Side Installation
Other Site Requirements
Units must operate from separate, properly grounded elec-
trical receptacles placed according to each unit's electrical
specications requirements.
Cutout width for a side-by-side installation is the total of the
widths listed under Cutout Dimensions in each unit's Instal-
lation Guide. Each door can be opened individually (one at
a time) without interference.
Figure 10
However, to ensure unobstructed door swing (opening both
doors at the same time), 1/4" (6.4 mm) of space needs to
be maintained between the units.
Hinge-by-Hinge Installation (Mullion)
When installing two units hinge-by-hinge, 13/16" (22 mm)
is required for integrated models. Additional space may be
needed for any knobs, pulls or handles installed.
Stainless steel models which include the standard stainless
handle will require 4-9/16" (116 mm) to allow both doors to
open to 90° at the same time.

Door Reversing Instructions
1. Open door.
2. Loosen screw #1 and #2 using a Philips Screwdriver on top and bottom hinge. Slide door and remove the door from the
unit.
3. Once door is removed, using a Philips Screwdriver remove screws from magnet actuator located on inside and bottom
of door. (On Integrated Models magnet actuator will be located on bottom of door.
Figure 16
Figure 17
Figure 18
4. Remove caps from top of door. Using a Philips Screwdriver, install magnet actuator on opposite side. Install caps into
opposite side.
5. Remove caps from screw holes on opposite side (2 on top and bottom). Using a Philips Screwdriver remove the 4
screws that you previously loosened.
6. Reinstall screws and caps on opposite side.
7. Once screws are partially installed, rotate the door 180°, align the hinge over screw #1 and slide into position. Tighten
screws on top and bottom.
8. Door is now reversed.

With a helper, and being careful not to scratch the cabinet
or the door, slide the door to the side about 12inch and
remove the hinges and door from the unit.
!WARNING
Integrated panel models are designed for use with
built-in installations only. Use in freestanding instal-
lations could result in personal injury.
If you purchased an integrated panel model, your unit is
equipped with articulated hinges to allow fully integrated
built-in installations. Custom panel thicknesses of 58" (15
mm) and 34" (18 mm) are accommodated.
