IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
prong receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in  
accordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult  
a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator  
to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not  
use an extension cord or adapter plug.  
Child Safety  
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any  
exterior wrapping material immediately after the  
refrigerator is unpacked. Children should NEVER  
use these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs,  
bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become  
airtight chambers, and can quickly cause suffocation.  
If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by  
an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.  
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power  
cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out  
from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.  
Proper Disposal of your Refrigerator  
or Freezer  
Risk of child entrapment  
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and before  
replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.  
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the  
past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers are still  
dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days. If  
you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please  
follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.  
Performance may be affected if the voltage varies  
by 10% or more. Operating the refrigerator with  
insufficient power can damage the compressor. Such  
damage is not covered under your warranty.  
Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet  
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the  
refrigerator from being turned off accidentally.  
Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers  
We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/  
disposal methods. Check with your utility company or  
recycling your old refrigerator.  
IMPORTANT  
Before you throw away  
your old refrigerator/  
freezer:  
Pressing and holding the On/Off button for three  
seconds, located on the left side of the temperature  
control panel will disable your refrigerator’s cooling  
system, but does not disconnect the power to the light  
bulb and other electrical components. To turn off power  
to your refrigerator you must unplug the power cord  
from the electrical outlet.  
Remove doors.  
Leave shelves in place  
so children may not  
easily climb inside.  
Have refrigerant  
removed by a qualified  
service technician.  
Grounding type wall receptacle  
Do not, under  
any circumstances,  
cut, remove,  
IMPORTANT  
CFC/HCFC Disposal  
or bypass the  
grounding prong.  
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system  
that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or  
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs are  
believed to harm stratospheric ozone if released to the  
atmosphere. Other refrigerants may also cause harm to  
the environment if released to the atmosphere.  
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make  
sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal  
by a qualified technician. If you intentionally release  
refrigerant, you may be subject to fines and imprisonment  
under provisions of environmental legislation.  
Power cord with  
3-prong grounded plug  
CAUTION  
Electrical information  
To avoid personal injury or property damage, handle  
tempered glass shelves carefully. Shelves may break  
suddenly if nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden  
temperature change.  
• The refrigerator must be plugged into its own  
dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only  
electrical outlet. The power cord of the appliance is  
equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your  
protection against electrical shock hazards. It must  
be plugged directly into a properly grounded three

This Use & Care Guide provides general installation and  
operating instructions for your model. We recommend  
using a service or kitchen contracting professional to  
install your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as  
instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the  
refrigerator, follow these important first steps.  
Installation  
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper  
air circulation, and plumbing and electrical connections:  
3
Sides & Top  
Back  
/8 inch (9.5 mm)  
1 inch (25.4 mm)  
Location  
NOTE  
Choose a place that is near a grounded, non-GFCI,  
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension cord or an  
adapter plug.  
If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge side  
against a wall, you may have to allow additional space  
so the door can be opened wider.  
If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct  
sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher, or  
other heat sources.  
Door opening  
Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy  
access to a counter when removing food. For best use of  
refrigerator drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator  
should be in a position where both can be fully opened.  
The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that is level  
and strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator.  
Consider water supply availability for models  
equipped with an automatic ice maker.  
CAUTION  
Do Not install the refrigerator where the temperature  
will drop below 55°F (13°C) or rise above 110°F  
(43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain  
proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.  
Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front of your  
refrigerator. Sufficient air circulation is essential for the  
proper operation of your refrigerator.

AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER (select models)  
The following sounds are normal when the ice maker  
Ice maker operation & care  
is operating:  
After the refrigerator is installed properly, the ice maker  
can produce ice within 24 hours. It can completely fill an  
ice bin in about three days.  
- Motor running  
- Ice dropping into ice bin  
- Water valve opening or closing  
- Running water  
When using the ice maker for the first time and in order  
for the ice maker to work properly, it is necessary to  
clear air from water filter tubing. Once ice maker begins  
making ice, allow the bucket to fill completely, then  
discard the first TWO FULL buckets of ice. It will take at  
least two days to completely fill the bucket on regular ice  
making mode or 1½ days on fast ice mode.  
Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavor.  
Empty the ice bin as explained below.  
Quick Ice Function  
Your refrigerator is equipped with a Quick Ice Function, that  
increases ice production. This function terminates automatically.  
The ice maker produces approximately four pounds of ice  
every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.  
Cleaning the ice maker  
IMPORTANT  
CAUTION  
Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can  
work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you  
cannot connect a water supply, lift the ice maker’s wire  
signal arm to turn it off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s  
fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when it  
attempts to operate without water.  
If the water supply to your refrigerator is softened, be  
sure the softener is properly maintained. Chemicals  
from a water softener can damage the ice maker.  
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at regular intervals,  
especially prior to vacation or moving.  
Turning the ice maker on and off  
1 Turn off the ice maker.  
2 Remove the ice bin.  
Ice production is controlled by lifting/lowering the ice  
maker’s wire signal arm. To gain access to the ice

Ideas for saving energy  
reduces air circulation and causes uneven cooling.  
Installation  
Fruits and vegetables  
Store fruits and vegetables in crisper drawers, where  
trapped moisture helps preserve food quality for  
longer time periods.  
Locate the refrigerator in the coolest part of the  
room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating  
ducts or registers.  
Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing  
appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher.  
If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an  
added layer of insulation between the two appliances  
will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently.  
Wash items and remove excess water.  
Wrap any items that have strong odors or high  
moisture content.  
Meat  
Level the refrigerator so that the doors close tightly.  
Wrap raw meat and poultry separately and securely  
to prevent leaks and contamination of other foods  
or surfaces.  
Temperature settings  
Refer to the “Controls” section for procedures on

term storage. Any meat to be kept longer than two  
days should be frozen.  
temperature settings.  
Food storage  
Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator or blocking cold  
air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run  
longer and use more energy.  
Frozen food storage  
Keep the freezer compartment at 0° F or lower.  
A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least  
full.  
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing  
them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture  
build-up inside the unit.  
Packaging foods for freezing  
Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings.  
Remove as many items as needed at one time and  
close the door as soon as possible.  
To minimize food dehydration and quality  
deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap,  
freezer bags, or airtight containers. Force as much air  
out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly.  
Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color,  
and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn).  
Do not place a hot container directly on a cold shelf.  
Remember, such an extreme temperature change  
may damage the glass.  
Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer  
wrap prior to freezing.  
Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed.  
Loading the freezer  
Prior to grocery shopping, activate “quick freeze”  
so that on your return you can ensure your newly  
purchased food designated for the freezer will be  
preserved as quickly as possible.  
Activating “quick freeze” also will help your freezer  
more efficiently maintain the selected temperature  
after placing new purchases with pre-existing  
frozen foods.

NOTE  
During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow in the back  
wall vents of your freezer compartment is normal.  
The following is a list of major components in your  
refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:  
A Evaporator Refrigerant through the evaporator  
may create a boiling or gurgling sound.  
B Evaporator fan You may hear air being forced  
through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.  
C Defrost heater During defrost cycles, water  
dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a  
hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a  
popping sound may occur.  
D Automatic ice maker When ice has been  
produced, you will hear ice cubes falling into the  
ice bin. Ice maker fan, water valve activation, and  
refrigerant gas fluid may create sounds from  
its operation.  
E Electronic control & automatic defrost

clicking sound when turning the cooling system on  
and off.  
F Condenser fan You may hear air being forced

pulsating sound.  
H Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each time it  
opens to fill the ice maker.  
I Drain pan (not removable) You may hear water  
dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.  
J Condenser May create minimal sounds from  
forced air.  
M Motorized damper May produce a light humming  
during operation.

CHANGING THE FILTER  
Locating the Filters  
Your refrigerator is equipped with water filtering system.  
The water filter system filters all dispensed drinking  
water, as well as the water used to produce ice.  
More about your Advanced Water Filter  
The PureSource UltraTM ice and water filter  
system is tested and certified to NSF/ANSI  
Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of claims  
specified on the performance data sheet.  
Water Filter  
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or  
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before  
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction  
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain  
filterable cysts.  
The water filter is located at the top right side of the  
fresh food compartment.  
Replacing the Water Filter  
In general, you should change the water filter every six  
months to ensure the highest possible water quality. The  
Water Filter Status light on the user interface prompts  
you to replace the filter after a standard amount of water  
(200 gallons/757 liters for PureSource UltraTM)has  
flowed through the system. The water filter status light  
on this model is not performance tested or certified  
by NSF.  
Test & certification results:  
Rated Capacity - 200 gallons/757 liters for  
PureSource UltraTM ice and water filter  
Rated service flow - .50 gallons per minute  
Operating Temp.: Min. 33°F, Max. 100°F  
Maximum Rated Pressure - 100 pounds per  
square inch  
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time  
(during moving for example), change the filter before  
reinstalling the refrigerator.  
Recommended Minimum Operating Pressure: 30  
pounds per square inch

CARE & CLEANING  
Protecting your investment  
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains its appearance and prevents odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately  
and clean the freezer and fresh food compartments at least twice a year.  
NOTE  
Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,  
concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors,  
gaskets, or cabinet liners. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials.  
Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners, or strong alkaline solutions on any surface.  
Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with bleach to clean stainless steel.  
Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.  
Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.  
NOTE  
If you set your temperature controls to turn off cooling, power to lights and other electrical components will continue  
until you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.  
Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the  
appliance surface.  
Do not remove the serial plate. Removal of your serial plate voids your warranty.  
Before moving your refrigerator, raise the anti-tip brackets so the rollers will work correctly. This will prevent the  
floor from being damaged.  
CAUTION  
• Pull the refrigerator straight out to move it. Shifting it from side to side may damage flooring. Be careful not to  
move the refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.  
Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated surfaces with wet or damp hands.  
IMPORTANT  
If you store or move your refrigerator in freezing temperatures, be sure to completely drain the water supply  
system. Failure to do so could result in water leaks when the refrigerator is put back into service. Contact a service  
representative to perform this operation.  
Refer to the guide on the next page for details on caring and cleaning specific areas of your refrigerator.
