STEP 4 INSTALLATION WITH
HOUSEHOLD WATER
FILTRATION SYSTEM
Skip this step if you do not have a household water
filtration system
If the water supply to the refrigerator is from any
household water filtration system, the filter cartridge
should be removed. For better ice and water performance,
remove the filter and install the filter bypass plug.
STEP 5 INSTALL SIDE PANELS
Skip this step when not using side panels.
If you are using 1/4” (0.63 cm) side panels, they should
be inserted into the case trim. Fasten the panels to the
refrigerator with stick-on hook and loop fastener strips
before setting the refrigerator in place.
STEP 6 INSTALL CASE TRIM
The unit arrives with case trim for standard installation
attached. Flush installation case trim is provided.
Remove the three pieces of factory installed case
trim (both sides and top). Install new case trim using
supplied right hand and left hand case trim pieces
and case trim screws. A top piece of case trim is not
required for flush installation. Attach case trim to each
side of case as shown in illustration using case trim
screws in holes provided down each side of the case.
STEP 7 ANTI-TIP PROCEDURE
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard.
These refrigerators are top heavy, especially with any
doors open, and must be secured to prevent tipping
forward which could result in death or serious injury.
Read and follow the entire installation instructions for
securing the refrigerator with the anti-tip system.
AVERTISSEMENT
Risque de
basculement
Ces réfrigérateurs présentent une partie supérieure
lourde, en particulier avec une porte ouverte; ils
doivent donc être fixés pour prévenir le basculement
vers l’avant et le risque concomitant de blessure
grave ou fatale. Lisez et suivez les instructions
d’installation complètes pour l’installation du système
anti-basculement.
Cut a 1” x 4” block, 35” (88.9 cm)
long.
Measure and mark under the soffit,
5-1/4” (13.34 cm) from the front edge
of the cabinet.
Secure the wood block under the
soffit. From the bottom of the block to
the finished floor should measure 84”
(213.36 cm). See the illustration.

Connect Power Cord:
Before pushing the refrigerator into the opening, plug
the power cord into the receptacle. The water filter
guard will need to be removed for access (some
models). Remove the 3 screws holding it in place. If
access is still too tight, remove the 2 screws holding
the water filter bracket and move aside. Open the
grille panel and reach into the opening at the back
to grasp the power cord. Pull the power cord into the
opening as you push the refrigerator back. Secure the
bracket and guard with the original screws.
Gently push refrigerator into the opening with hands
against front corners.
Once the refrigerator is pushed into the opening,
use leveling legs to raise the refrigerator until it rests
against the block installed at the top of the opening.
