Water Supply Requirements

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 35 and 120 psi (241 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

Remove and Replace Handles

1.Using a 3/32"or 1/8” hex wrench, loosen the two set screws located on the side of each handle.

2.Pull the handle straight out from the door. Make sure you keep the screws for reattaching the handles.

3.To replace the handles, reverse the directions.

Remove Doors and Hinges (cont.)

6.Remove the parts for the top hinge as shown in Top Hinge graphic. Lift the left-hand side door from the bottom hinge pin.

Note: Remove the hinge pin cover from the bottom hinge pin and keep it for later use. See Bottom Hinge graphic.

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 35 and 120 psi (241 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.

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

Remove Doors and Hinges

IMPORTANT: Remove food and any adjustable door or utility bins from doors.

TOOLS NEEDED: 5/16", 3/8", 1/4" hex-head socket wrench, #2 Phillips screwdriver, and a flat- blade screwdriver.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Keep the refrigerator doors closed until you are ready to lift them free from the cabinet.

Note: Provide additional support for the refrigerator door while the hinges are being removed. DO NOT depend on the door gasket magnets to hold the door in place while you are working.

3.Starting with the right-hand side door, remove the parts for the top hinge as shown in Top Hinge graphic. Lift the refrigerator door from the bottom hinge pin.

Note: Remove the hinge pin cover from the bottom hinge pin and keep for later use. See Bottom Hinge graphic.

4.Before removing the left-hand side door, disconnect the wiring plug located on the top of the top hinge by wedging a flat-blade screwdriver or fingernail between the two sections. See Wiring Plug graphic.
