1.
Place an appliance dolly under the left side of the
refrigerator as shown. Place the corner posts from
the packing materials over the trims as appropriate.
Slowly tighten the strap.
2.
Place pieces of the shipping carton on the floor when
rolling the dolly and refrigerator into the house. Move
the refrigerator close to the built-in opening.
3.
Place top of cardboard carton or plywood under
refrigerator.
4.
Stand the refrigerator up. First, place the left bottom
edge of the refrigerator on the floor, stand the
refrigerator upright and then lower the right-hand
side of the refrigerator to the floor.
INSTALL ANTI-TIP BOARDS
IMPORTANT:
If a solid soffit is not available, anti-tip boards must be
installed.
It is recommended that boards be installed before
the refrigerator is installed.
Boards must be long enough to fully cover the width
of the compressor cover.
Place the boards so that the bottom surfaces of the
boards are 84" (213 cm) from the floor.
During installation, raise the refrigerator up until
the top of the refrigerator is making contact with
the bottom of the anti-tip boards. Do not crush the
compressor cover when raising the rear leveling legs.
NOTE:
The foam gasket, on top of the compressor
cover, will compress to fit under the anti-tip board(s).
There is no need to trim the gasket.
TO INSTALL ANTI-TIP BOARDS
1.
Mark the stud locations on rear wall.
2.
Securely attach two 2" x 4" x 32" (5 cm x 10 cm x 81 cm)
boards to wall studs behind refrigerator. Use six
#8 x 3" (7.6 cm) (or longer) wood screws. The wood
screws must be screwed into the studs at least 1½"
(3.8 cm). The boards must overlap the compressor
cover.
CONNECT THE WATER SUPPLY
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
Connect to potable water supply only.
CONNECT TO WATER LINE
PARTS NEEDED
Minimum 7 ft (2.13 m) flexible, codes-approved water
supply line
STYLE 1—SHUTOFF VALVE CONNECTION
NOTE:
If your water line connection does not look like
Style 1, see “Style 2—Copper Line Connection.”
1.
Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power supply.
IMPORTANT:
There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush
installation if a water shutoff valve is located in the
wall behind the refrigerator. The water shutoff should
be located in the base cabinet on either side of the
refrigerator.
Before attaching the tubing to shutoff valve, flush
the main water supply line to remove particles and
air in the water line. Allow enough flow so that water
becomes clear. Flushing the water line may help
avoid filters and/or water valves from becoming
clogged.
