Electrical Shock Hazard

l Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service technician If you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

lDo Not use an extension cord with thls appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock, or other personal injury.

A 120.volt, 60.Hz, AC only, 15or-20 ampere, fused, electrical supply is required A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker IS recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be providea

Recommended grounding method

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUNDING PRONG.

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong, grounding-type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSVNFPA 70-latest edition, and local codes and ordinances. See Figure 1 If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Water supply requiremkds

Use only l/4” copper tubing for water line.

The water line to the refrigerator must provide 15-100 psi water pressure.

The preferred method of installing the plumbing to the refrigerator is through the wall. An optional method is installing the water line through a floor opening. If the copper tubing is installed through the floor, the hole cut in the floor must be angled 45” toward the front.

You will need enough l/4”- copper tubing to connect from water line to refrigerator, a saddle-type valve and a union. Rough in the water line before installing the refrigerator. See steps that follow.

Product/ Property

Damage Hazard

Do Not install copper tubing in an area where temperatures drop below freezing.

To do so may result in water damage.

1.Find a 3/8” to 1” vertical cold water line near the refrigerator. Measure the distance from the cold water line to the refrigerator location. Add 24 inches for the final length of

copper tubing you will need. Cut both ends of copper tubing square.

2.Turn off main water supply and clear water line.

I Electric Shock Hazard.

Electric drill must be grounded to prevent severe or lethal shock if water is in line and enters drill during use.

Failure to ground drill may result in personal injury.

3.Ground electric drill or use a hand drill. Drill a 3/l 6” hole in vertical cold water line. Attach a saddle valve to the water line with a clamp in an easily accessible location. Insert a washer between clamp and line. Check that inlet end is solidly in the drill hole. Tighten packing nut.

Tighten the pipe clamp screws evenly so washer makes a watertight connection. Do Not overtighten or copper tubing could be crushed.

4.Slide compression nut and sleeve on copper tubing. Insert end of copper tubing completely into the outlet valve. Tighten compression nut to outlet with an adjustable wrench. Do Not over-tighten. Turn on main water supply and flush copper tubing. Turn the new water line valve to the “OFF” position.

5.Route copper tubing to the refrigerator location.

6.Slide compression nut and sleeve over water line.

7.Connect union to compression nut and sleeve. Tighten with adjustable wrench. Do Not over-tighten.
