equirements

The electrical circuit must meet all local codes and ordinances.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Vac, 60 Hz., 15 or 20 Amp fused, grounded electrical supply 

is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only 

your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned 

off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

IMPORTANT

: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault 

Circuit Interrupter) protected outlet, nuisance tripping of the power 

supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Food quality and 

flavor may be affected.

All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

◊ 

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. The access hole 

through the cabinet must be within ½” (12.7 mm) of the rear 

wall.

NOTE

: If the water shut off valve is in the back wall behind the 

refrigerator, it must be at an angle so that the tube is not kinked 

when the refrigerator is pushed into its final position.

equirements

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. 

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).
