Transporting to Refrigerator Site
After removing the external packaging from your refrigera-
tor, you may still need to use a hand truck to move it through
close spaces or entrances. If the refrigerator is larger than an
entrance, consider 2 options:
• Remove the entrance door if one exists.
• Remove the refrigerator doors (see how in your Use & Care Manual).
When using a hand truck:
• Load refrigerator from side of cabinet only.
• Do not run retaining straps over handles.
• Do not overtighten retaining straps.
• Never use refrigerator handles to move

Water Supply Connection
What you will need:
• Access to a cold water line
with pressure between 30
and 100 psi.
To avoid property damage:
• A water supply line made of
• Use a water supply line made
braided stainless steel tub-
ing or polyline. To determine the length needed,
measure the distance from the water valve inlet
• Ensure water supply complies
at the back of the refrigerator to your cold water
pipe. Then add approximately 6 ft (1.8 m), so you
can move the refrigerator out for cleaning.
• A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line

to your household water system. DO NOT use a
self-piercing type shutoff valve.
• While we do not recommend copper water lines, if
For homes with existing valves,
you choose to use copper, DO NOT reuse com-

compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connect-
steel water line), and for homes
ing a copper supply line to the inlet water valve.
without an existing valve, use Smart

Installation Instructions for
Side-by-Side Refrigerator
To connect the water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve:
1. Disconnect the unit from the electrical power source.
2. Place the end of water supply line into a sink or a bucket. Turn ON
the water supply and flush the supply line until the water is clear. Turn
OFF the water supply at the shutoff valve.
3. Remove the plastic cap from water valve inlet and discard the cap.
4. If you use copper tubing, slide brass compression nut, and then
ferrule (sleeve) onto water supply line. Push water supply line
NOTE
into water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼" / 6.4 mm). Slide
ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten compression
nut onto valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench; DO NOT
overtighten. See Figure 1.
If you use braided flexible stainless steel tubing, the nut is al-
ready assembled on the tubing. Slide nut onto valve inlet and fin-
ger tighten nut onto valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench;
DO NOT overtighten. See Figure 2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water supply line
(copper tubing only) to rear panel of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about 2½
turns, behind refrigerator as shown and arrange coils so they do
not vibrate or wear against any other surface.
NOTE
7. Turn ON the water supply at the shutoff valve and tighten any
connections that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to an electrical power source.

NOTE
• The ice maker's fill valve may operate noisily if the household

water supply is shut off.
• After ensuring no water leaks exist at any connection, be sure
to check for leaks again in 24 hours.

If possible, use a hand truck to position the refrigerator
directly in front of its cabinet enclosure.
Be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond its wa-
ter supply (copper tubing) connections.
Plug in the power cord, and push the refrigerator
straight back into place.

Refrigerator Leveling and Door Adjustment
of braided stainless steel tubing
or polyline.
Installation Checkoff List:
with local plumbing codes.
 All 4 corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on the floor.
 Level the cabinet at the front and rear ensuring the doors will open, close, and seal properly.
NOTE
 Align and level the doors with each other.
Level the cabinet using the leveling feet:
1. Open both doors and remove the toe grille (see Toe Grille
Installation and Removal in the INSTALLATION section of your
Use & Care Manual).
2. Level the cabinet at the front and rear so the front is raised ¼" (6
mm) above the rear. Close the doors. Use an adjustable wrench to
loosen the feet (A). Once you have lowered the leveling feet slightly,
use the wrench on the nut (B) to lower (counterclockwise) or raise
(clockwise) the front of the cabinet ensuring the unit is sitting flat on the floor.
3. Check the pull force on the handles after the unit has run for 5 minutes. This ensures an
air-tight seal forms between the door gasket and the metal part of the cabinet.

Suggestions
Operation problems are possible if any of the installation tasks are not completed. Here is a
list of things to check for:
• Is the refrigerator's power cord plugged in?
• Is the refrigerator connected to the household water supply?
• If you had to remove the refrigerator and freezer doors, did you reattach water
and power connectors at the door hinges? (See the Use & Care Manual for detailed
instructions on removing and replacing doors.)
• Is the ice maker power switch turned On?
Other possibilities to check:
• Is the power to the receptacle turned on?
• Is the water filter above the fresh food compartment fully seated (see Use & Care Manual
for details)?
If you still have operation problems after checking these suggestions, please see the
TROUBLESHOOTING section in your Use & Care Manual.
Congratulations. You are ready to begin enjoying your new refrigerator.
