Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
Take off the doors.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Unpack the Refrigerator
Remove the Packaging
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning
on the refrigerator. Rub 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. For
more information, see “Refrigerator Safety.”
On some models, shelves, bins, door shelf rails, and other
feature parts may be packaged in the Interior FeaturePak.
Follow the instructions contained in the package for proper
assembly.
There are four bolts that secure the refrigerator to the shipping
case. Keep these bolts because they are the refrigerator's
leveling legs.
Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the white foam air return insert that
is located behind the control panel on the ceiling of the refrigerator
(on some models). The insert is part of the refrigerator and not
part of the packing material. If the insert is removed, ice may
migrate down from the freezer and cause icicles to form.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the , follow basic precautions, refrigerator
including the following:
WARNING:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline,
away from refrigerator.
Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.
Disconnect power before installing ice maker (on ice maker
kit ready models only).
WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard

When Moving Your Refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for
cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with
cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. 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.
3
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the package materials, clean the inside of
your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in
“Refrigerator Care.”
Location Requirements
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow for a ¹⁄"
(12.70 mm) space on each side. Allow 3" (7.5 cm) of space
between overhead cabinets and refrigerator top. Allow at least 1"
(25.40 mm) between back of cabinet and the wall. If your
refrigerator has an ice maker, make sure you leave some extra
space at the back for the water line connections.
If you are installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave
2" (5.08 cm) minimum on the hinge side (depending on your
model) to allow for the door to swing open.
Level the refrigerator. See “Adjust the Doors.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C).
Electrical Requirements
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet
that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an
extension cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or
Freezer Control depending on the model) OFF and then
disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you
are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and
reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control
depending on the model) to the desired setting. See “Using the
Control(s).
Water Supply Requirements
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing
only in areas where the household temperatures will remain
above freezing.
TOOLS NEEDED: Flat-blade screwdriver, ₁₆" and ¹⁄" open-end
wrenches or 2 adjustable wrenches, ¹⁄" nut driver and drill bit,
cordless drill. Gather the required tools and parts before starting
installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any
tools listed.
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄"
(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆"
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
3" (7.5 cm)
2" (5.08 cm)
Electrical Shock Hazard

Ice Maker
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
Ice Production Rate
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches
of ice in a 24-hour period.
To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See “Using the Control(s).” Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
For maximum ice production (on some models), push the
switch to ICE PLUS. The ice maker should produce 16 to
20 batches of ice in a 24-hour period in the Ice Plus mode.
Remember
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice
maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals
(such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to
poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided,
make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well
maintained.
Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice in the bin. This
can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser
mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice bin.
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both compartments about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods
tightly.
For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion-
resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the
following cleaning instructions.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, muriatic acid,
cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing petroleum products on exterior surfaces (doors and
cabinet), plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not
use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
3. Clean the exterior surfaces.
Painted metal: Wash painted metal exteriors with a clean,
soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm water.
Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry immediately to
avoid water spots.
Stainless steel: Wash stainless steel surfaces with a clean,
soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm water.
Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry immediately to
avoid water spots.
NOTE: When cleaning stainless steel, always wipe with the
grain to avoid cross-grain scratching.
4. Clean the condenser coils regularly. Coils may need to be
cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save
energy.
Pull refrigerator out away from the wall. See “Unpack the
Refrigerator.”
Vacuum coils when they are dusty or dirty.
Roll refrigerator back into place. Make sure to leave
1" (2.5 cm) between the cabinet back and the wall.
Check to see that the refrigerator is level.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Cómo deshacerse adecuadamente de
su refrigerador viejo
IMPORTANTE: El atrapamiento y asfixia de niños no es un
problema del pasado. Los refrigeradores tirados y abandonados
son un peligro, aún si van a quedar ahí “por unos pocos días”. Si
Ud. está por deshacerse de su refrigerador viejo, por favor siga
las instrucciones que se dan a continuación para prevenir
accidentes.
Antes de tirar su refrigerador viejo o congelador:
Saque las puertas.
Deje los estantes en su lugar así los niños no pueden meterse
adentro con facilidad.
INSTRUCCIONES DE INSTALACIÓN
Desempaque el refrigerador
Quite los materiales de empaque
Quite los restos de cinta y goma de las superficies de su
refrigerador antes de encenderlo. Frote un poco de
detergente líquido para vajillas sobre el adhesivo con los
dedos. Limpie con agua tibia y seque.
No use instrumentos filosos, alcohol para fricciones, líquidos
inflamables o limpiadores abrasivos para eliminar restos de
cinta o goma. Estos productos pueden dañar la superficie de
su refrigerador. Para más informacn, vea “Seguridad del
refrigerador”.
En algunos modelos, los estantes, recipientes, rieles para los
estantes de las puertas y otras partes pueden estar en el
Paquete de piezas interior (Interior FeaturePak). Siga las
instrucciones contenidas en el paquete para lograr un
ensamblaje adecuado.
Hay cuatro pernos que ajustan el refrigerador a la caja de
embalaje. Guarde los pernos porque son las patas
niveladoras del refrigerador.
Deshágase de todos los materiales de embalaje o recíclelos.
IMPORTANTE: No quite el inserto de espuma blanca de retorno
de aire que está ubicado detrás del panel de control, en el techo
del refrigerador (en algunos modelos). Esta pieza es parte del
refrigerador y no es material de empaque. Si se quita dicha pieza,
el hielo del congelador puede bajar y formar carámbanos.
Cómo limpiar su refrigerador antes de usarlo
Una vez que usted haya quitado todos los materiales de
empaque, limpie el interior de su refrigerador antes de usarlo. Vea
las instrucciones de limpieza en “Cuidado de su refrigerador”.
ADVERTENCIA
Peligro de Asfixia
Remueva las puertas de su refrigerador viejo.
No seguir esta instrucción puede ocasionar la muerte
o daño al cerebro.
ADVERTENCIA
Peligro de Peso Excesivo
Use dos o más personas para mover e instalar
el refrigerador.
No seguir esta instrucción puede ocasionar una
lesión en la espalda u otro tipo de lesiones.
Cómo mover su refrigerador:
Su refrigerador es pesado. Cuando mueva el refrigerador
para la limpiarlo o para darle servicio, cerciórese de cubrir
el piso con cartón o madera para evitar daños en el mismo.
Al mover el refrigerador, siempre tire directamente hacia
afuera. No menee el refrigerador de lado a lado ni lo haga
“caminar” cuando lo trate de mover p16-ya que podría dañar
el piso.
Información importante para saber acerca de los estantes
y tapas de vidrio:
No limpie los estantes y tapas de vidrio con agua caliente
mientras están fríos. Los estantes y tapas pueden romperse
si se exponen a cambios bruscos de temperatura o impacto,
como sería un golpe brusco. El vidrio templado se p16-ha
diseñado para hacerse añicos. Esto es normal. Los estantes
y tapas de vidrio son muy pesados. Use ambas manos al
sacarlos para evitar que se caigan.
17
Requisitos de ubicación
Para asegurar la ventilacn adecuada de su refrigerador, deje un
espacio de ¹⁄" (12,70 mm) a cada lado. Deje un espacio de
3" (7,5 cm) entre los armarios de arriba y la parte superior del
refrigerador. Deje por lo menos 1" (25,40 mm) entre la parte
trasera de la carcasa y la pared. Si su refrigerador tiene una
fábrica de hielo, asegúrese de que haya espacio adicional atrás
para la conexión de las tuberías de agua.
Si va a instalar su refrigerador al costado de una pared fija,
deje como mínimo 2" (5,08 cm) en el lado de la bisagra (según
el modelo) para permitir que la puerta se abra bien.
Nivele el refrigerador. Vea “Ajuste las puertas”.
NOTA: No se recomienda instalar el refrigerador cerca de un
horno, radiador u otra fuente de calor. No lo instale en un lugar
donde la temperatura baje a menos de 55°F (13°C).
Requisitos eléctricos
Antes de mover el refrigerador a su posicn definitiva, es
importante asegurarse que Ud. tiene la conexión ectrica
adecuada.
Método de conexión a tierra recomendado
Se requiere una fuente de energía ectrica de 115 Voltios,
60 Hz., CA solamente y con fusibles de 15 ó 20 amperios,
conectada a tierra. Se recomienda que se use un circuito
separado sólo para su refrigerador. Use un tomacorriente que no
se puede apagar con un interruptor. No use un cable eléctrico de
extensión.
NOTA: Antes de realizar cualquier tipo de instalación, limpieza o
de quitar un foco de luz, ponga el control (del termostato, del
refrigerador o del congelador dependiendo del modelo) en la
posición OFF (Apagado) y luego desconecte el refrigerador de la
fuente de energía. Cuando Ud. haya terminado, reconecte el
refrigerador a la fuente de enera eléctrica y vuelva a poner el
control (del termostato, del refrigerador o del congelador
dependiendo del modelo) en la posición deseada. Vea “Uso
del(de los) control(es)”.
