Installation Sheet

■ If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbing for
the water line can come through the floor. A ¹⁄₂" (12.7
mm) hole
for plumbing should be drilled at least 6" (15.2 cm) from the
right-hand or left-hand side cabinet or panel. On the floor, the
hole should be no more than 1" (2.54 cm) away from the back
wall. See “Connect the Water Supply.”
■ If additional tubing is needed, use copper tubing and check for
leaks. Install the copper tubing only in areas where the
household temperatures will remain above freezing.
■ Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which
reduces water flow and clogs more easily.
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a
¹⁄₄" (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.
Water Pressure
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi
(207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and
ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call
a licensed, qualified plumber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a
reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the
refrigerator needs to be between 30 and 120
psi (207 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40
to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
■ Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis
system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill
after heavy usage.
■ If your refrigerator has a water filter cartridge, it may further
reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a
reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter cartridge.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.
Tipping Radius
Be sure there is adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigerator
upright when it is moved into place.
■ The dolly wheel height must be added to the tipping radius
when a dolly is used.
■ If needed, the tipping radius can be reduced. See “Reduce
Tipping Radius.”
Side Tipping Radius
The side tipping radius varies depending upon the width of the
model. Use the chart provided to determine the side tipping radius.
NOTE: Tip on side only.
Product Dimensions
Side View
■ The depth from the front of the top grille to the back of the
refrigerator cabinet is 25³⁄₈" (64.5 cm).
■ The power cord is 84" (213 cm) long.
■ The water line attached to the back of the refrigerator is
