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 ampere 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) to 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.

Water System Preparation

Please read before using the water system.

Immediately after installation, follow the steps below to make
sure that the water system is properly cleaned.

1.

Turn off the ice maker by opening the freezer door and lifting
up the wire shut-off arm as shown.

2.

Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding
2 to 3 gallons (approximately 6 to 7 minutes) of water through
the dispenser. This will clean the system and help clear air
from the lines. Additional flushing may be required in some
households.

3.

Turn on the ice maker by opening the freezer door and
lowering the wire shut-off arm as shown. Allow 24 hours to
produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches
of ice produced. Ice maker should then produce
approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period.

death, fire, or electrical shock.

Do not use an extension cord.
