Electrical Requirements Water Supply Requirements

■ All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

WARNING■ The water supply line must come up through the floor in the gray shaded area shown.

	■ The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet on
		either side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessible
		area. The right-hand side is recommended.
		NOTE: There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush
		installation if a water shutoff valve is located in the wall behind

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

to the desired setting.
		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, 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.
