Adjust the Doors

Door Closing

1.Place a level inside the refrigerator at the back of the top shelf. See Graphic 8 in “Refrigerator Doors.”

2.Locate the leveling screws behind the base grille of the refrigerator on either side.

3.Use a hex-head socket wrench to adjust the rear roller leveling screws until the refrigerator is level. Turn the rear roller leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that side. See Graphic 10 in “Refrigerator Doors.” Make sure refrigerator is level before proceeding.

4.Check the door alignment after leveling the refrigerator.

Align the Doors

IMPORTANT: First level the back of the refrigerator as described in “Door Closing.”

The doors may be uneven after leveling the refrigerator. See Graphic 9 in “Refrigerator Doors.” The doors are preset at the factory so that the refrigerator door is higher than the freezer door by approximately the thickness of a quarter. Once the doors are loaded with food, they should be even. If the door height needs to be adjusted AFTER the doors have been loaded with food, follow the these steps.

1.Use a hex-head socket wrench to adjust the front roller leveling screws until the doors are even. Turn the front roller leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that side. See Graphic 10 in “Refrigerator Doors.”

NOTE: Open and close both the refrigerator and freezer doors after each adjustment to check the door alignment.

2.Open the doors and replace the base grille. Line up the grille support tabs with the metal clips. Push the grille firmly to snap it into place.

NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille.

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 Water Line

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.

3.Locate a ½" to 1¹⁄₄" (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water pipe near the refrigerator.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure it is a cold water pipe.

Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

4.Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure from the connection on the lower left rear of refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

5.Using a grounded drill, drill a ¹⁄₄" hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

6.Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws slowly and evenly so the washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.

7.Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut onto the copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.

8.Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing.

Connect to Refrigerator

Style 1 - Connection to Water Valve

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not overtighten.

3.Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back against the wall.

4.Turn shutoff valve ON.

5.Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

6.The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If your water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in the ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
