INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Area Requirements
Verify the following:
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
• Floors can support refrigerator’s weight plus
approximately 1200 pounds (544 kg) of food
weight.
Electrical Grounding Required.This
appliance is equipped with a three-prong
(grounding) polarized plug for your
protection against possible shock hazards.
• Finished kitchen floor height is level. Refrigerator
must be shimmed level if the floor heights
are not equal to make sure air vents are not
obstructed.
DO NOT remove the round grounding
prong from the plug.
DO NOT use a two-prong grounding
adapter.
DO NOT use an extension cord to
connect power to the unit.
•
•
•
• Remove anything attached to rear or side walls
that can obstruct refrigerator opening.
• Cutout dimensions are accurate.
• Electrical outlet is in correct location.
To protect the refrigerator from possible
damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to
1 hour in place before turning the electricity
on.This allows the refrigerant and system
lubrication to reach equilibrium.
Do not install this refrigerator-freezer next to any
other refrigerator. Installing this refrigerator-freezer
next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause
condensation or cause damage to the appliance.
Customer’s Responsibility
Electrical Requirement
If codes require a separate grounding circuit to be
used, have a qualified electrician install the circuit.
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp fused electrical supply is
required. We recommend using a dedicated circuit
for this appliance to prevent electrical overload.
Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances when installing the receptacle.
Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are not sure
the appliance is properly grounded. Do not
have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
Blocking For Safety
The anti-tip bracket must be installed to prevent
the unit from tipping after it is installed. Refer to
Blocking For Safety.
Unit Venting
Do not restrict the air flow. Air flow must be
provided for the unit to operate.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
• Electrically ground refrigerator.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Failure to follow these instructions
could result in fire or electrical shock.

BLOCKING FOR SAFETY
Mounting the anti tipping device
on concrete floors - Figure 5 - 6
Secure the appliance in place so it does not tip for-
ward when the fully stocked doors are opened. The
anti tipping bracket is provided with the appliance.
Wall
1. Mark the center line of the appliance on the back
wall. Align the anti tipping bracket center to this
line.
Be sure that there is no plumbing or
electrical wiring located in this area which
screws or drills could damage.
2. Drill a 3/8" diameter hole in any position as
shown in Figure 4 using a carbide drill bit.
Wall Plate
The depth of the holes must exceed the overall
length of the anchors provided.
Figure 5
Clean the holes after drilling.
3. Attach washer and screw on hex nut to the end
of each anchor.
Drive in all 3 anchors.
Align the bracket center to the center line on the
back wall again.

Fasten the anchors by turning the hex nut.
4. Fasten bracket with 3 screws (1/4" x 2-1/8") into
the wall plate (Figure 6).

1. Mark the center line of the appliance on the back
wall. Align the anti tipping bracket center to this
line.
To ensure the compressor mounting plate reaches
the anti tipping bracket at cabinets deeper than
24", a wooden spacer must be mounted between
the appliance back and the wall. The anti tipping
bracket will be fastened to the floor downwards and
to the spacer backwards.
Be sure that there is no plumbing or
electrical wiring located in this area which
screws or drills could damage.
Be sure the wooden spacer is fastened
securely to the floor.
2. Fasten bracket to the wooden floor using 5
screws (1/4" x 2-1/8"). Drill pilot holes if neces-
sary.
3. Fasten bracket with 3 screws (1/4" x 2-1/8") into
the wall plate.

ICEMAKER
IceMaker
• If you have hard water, we recommend you install
a water softener. Also, a filter must be installed if
the water contains solids such as sand.
The icemaker for a combined refrigerator-freezer
is located in the freezer compartment. It must be
connected to the water supply to function properly.
These instructions only refer to the installation of
the icemaker. Please refer to the Use and Care
Manual provided with the appliance for operation
instructions. The combined refrigerator-freezer must
be level for the icemaker to function properly.
• All equipment and devices used to supply the
water to the appliance must comply with the cur-
rent regulations for your geographical area.
Cover strips - Figure 10
Safety Instructions and Warnings
• Do not install the water connection while the
combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to an
electrical outlet.
Before connection to the water supply, the cover
strips provided must be fitted to the appliance. It is
necessary because the appliance will be moved
into its recess.
• The connection to the water supply may only be
made by a trained and licensed plumber.
• Remove the cover band from the strips and stick
them to the left and right front edge of the appli-
ance housing (Figure 10).
• The water quality must comply with the drink-
ing water regulations for the geographical area
where the appliance is located.
Water Connection
• The water pressure must be between 21.8-87.0
psi (1.5-6 bar).
• Use a 1/4" OD copper line to connect the water
supply to the solenoid valve. This is not sup-
plied with the refrigerator (Figure 9).
• A shut-off valve, such as the saddle valve illus-
trated here, must be installed between the hose
line and the main water supply so the water sup-
ply can be stopped if necessary.
Do not install the shut-off valve behind the
refrigeration unit.

ICEMAKER
Connection to the Water Supply
1. Install the shut-off valve, water filter and auto-
matic shut-off device as required.
2. The solenoid valve has a Metric R3/4 male con-
nector. A R3/4 (metric) to a 1/4" OD adapter is
supplied with the icemaker.
3. Move the appliance towards the final position
and leave a gap of approx. 30" behind.
4. Insert the water supply line into its intended
opening at the back of the appliance (Figure
11).
Figure 11
5. Move the power supply line to the area of the
electrical outlet.
Wall
Do not connect to the electrical outlet
before the installation is completed
and the water line is connected to the
solenoid valve.

6. Push the appliance slowly to the back wall until
the compressor mounting plate makes contact
with the anti-tipping bracket (Figure 12).
Anti - tipping bracket
To prevent the appliance from tipping
forward the compressor mounting plate
must have contact with the anti tipping
bracket (Figure 12).

7. The water line is visible at the front of the appli-
ance. Screw the OD adapter onto the solenoid
valve and connect the water line with the adapt-
er (Figure 13).
8. Open the shut-off valve for the water supply and
check the entire water system for leaks.
