INSTALLATION / REMOVING THE DOORS
Yourrefrigeratorshouldbepositionedtoalloweasyaccesstoacounter
whenremovingfood.Forbestuseofdrawersandfreezerbaskets,the
refrigeratorshouldbeinapositionwhereboththerefrigeratorandfreezer
doorscanbefullyopened.
To level the doors using the adjustable lower hinge (some models):
1 Iftherefrigeratordoorislowerthanthefreezerdoor,raisethe
refrigeratordoorbyturningtheadjustmentscrewclockwiseusing
a11.1mmsocketwrench.(Seeillustration.)
2 Ifthefreezerdoorislowerthantherefrigeratordoor,raisethe
freezerdoorbyturningtheadjustmentscrewclockwiseusinga

(fromfullyclosedtofullyopen).
4 Replacethetoegrillebyttingitintoplace.
Guidelines for final positioning of your refrigerator:
• Allfourcornersofthecabinetmustrestrmlyontheoor.
• Thecabinetshouldbelevelatthefrontandrear.
• Thesidesshouldtilt6.4mmfromfronttoback(toensurethat
doorscloseandsealproperly).
• Doorsshouldalignwitheachotherandbelevel.
All of these conditions can be met by raising or
lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1 Openbothdoorsandremovethetoegrillebygentlypulling
forward(seeillustration).
CAUTION - DO NOT install the refrigerator where the
temperature will drop below 13°C or rise above 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.
NOTE-Ifyourrefrigeratorisplacedwiththedoorhingesideagainst

CAUTION - To avoid property damage:
• Use water tubing for the water supply line (plastic
tubing is more likely to leak). Manufacturer is not
responsible for any damage if plastic tubing is
used for supply line.
• Ensurewatersupplyandinstallationcomplywithstateand
local laws and regulations.
• Forproperdispenseroperation,recommendedwatersupply
pressure should fall between 210 kPa (2.1 bar) and 690 kPa
(6.9 bar). Excessive pressure may cause water filter to
malfunction.

the mute sounds icon will illuminate until pressed, acknowledging the alarm, at
which time the highest temperature reached will be displayed and the refrigerator
will resume normal operation. All other modes are turned off until the alarm is
acknowledged.
Power Fail - In the event of a power failure, the power fail alert will be displayed
and the mute sounds icon will be illuminated and you will hear an audible alarm until
the mute sounds icon is pressed, acknowledging the alarm. Other modes may be
turned off until the alarm is acknowledged. When the power fail alert is turned off
the refrigerator will resume normal operation. The high temp alarm may also be
illuminated until a safe operating range temperature has been reached.
on off - Press and hold for three seconds to turn off the cooling system to clean
the refrigerator. It also turns off all dispenser functions. The temperature display
will read OFF.

WARNING - Connect to potable water only. Minimum
supply water pressure = 210 kPa (2.1 bar). Maximum
supply water pressure = 690 kPa (6.9 bar).
CAUTION - For proper dispenser operation,
recommended water supply pressure should fall
between 210 kPa (2.1 bar) and 690 kPa (6.9 bar).
Excessive pressure may cause water filter to
malfunction.
To prime the water supply system:
1 Beginllingthetankbypressingandholdingadrinkingglass
