Opening and Closing Your

Fresh Food Doors

Your new refrigerator is

uniquely designed with two

fresh food doors. Either door

can be opened or closed

independently of one another.

There is a vertically-hinged

section on the left fresh food

door. When the left door is

closed, the hinged section

automatically forms a seal

between the two doors when

both doors are closed.

When the left door is opened,

the hinged seal automatically folds inward so that it is

out of the way.

Installation

To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe

personal injury or death, DO NOT attempt to

remove the hinged seal from the fresh food

section.

WARNING

To avoid possible product damage, ALWAYS verify

that the hinged seal is folded against the edge of

the door prior to closing.

5. Slide brass nut over sleeve and screw nut

into inlet port. Tighten nut with wrench.

IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten. Cross

threading may occur.

Materials Needed:

•

⁄4” outer diameter flexible copper tubing

• Shut-off valve (requires a

⁄4” hole to be drilled into

water supply line before valve attachment)

• Adjustable wrench

•

⁄4” hex nut driver

Notes

• Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is

less durable and can cause damage.

• Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water

supply for creation of service loop.

1. Create service loop with copper

tubing (minimum 2’ diameter).

Avoid kinks in the copper tubing

when bending it into a service

loop. Do not use plastic tubing.

2. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port.

3. Place brass nut (A) and sleeve (B) on

copper tube end as illustrated.

Reminder: Do not use an old

sleeve. The nut and sleeve are

provided in the use and care packet.

4. Place end of copper tubing into water

valve inlet port. Shape tubing slightly. Do

not kink – so that tubing feeds straight

into inlet port.

To avoid property damage or possible injury,

follow basic precautions, including the

following:

• Consult a plumber to connect

⁄4” O.D. copper

tubing to household plumbing to assure

compliance with local codes and ordinances.

• Confirm water pressure to water valve is between

35 and 100 pounds per square inch, 20 pounds per

square inch without filter.

• Do not use a self-piercing, or

⁄16” saddle valve. Both

reduce water flow and can become clogged over

time, and may cause leaks if repair is attempted.

•Tighten nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.

Finish tightening nuts with pliers and wrenches. Do

not overtighten.

•Wait two to three hours before placing refrigerator

into final position to check and correct any water

leaks. Recheck for leaks after 24 hours.

•Verify the copper tubing under the sleeve is smooth

and free from defects. Do not reuse an old sleeve.

CAUTION

6. Pull on tubing to confirm connection is

secure. Connect tubing to frame with

water tubing clamp (C) and turn on

water supply. Check for leaks and

correct if necessary. Continue to

observe the water supply connection

for two to three hours prior to moving

the refrigerator to its permanent

location.

7. Monitor water connection for 24 hours. Correct

leaks, if necessary.
