KitchenAid KSF22C4CYY Manual De Propietario

NOTES: 

■

This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the 
temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a 
maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature 
range for optimum performance, which reduces electricity 
usage and provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) 
and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended that you do not install the 
refrigerator near a heat source, such as an oven or radiator.

■

Normal minimum cabinet cut-out width required for product 
installation is 36" (91.44 cm). However, if the product is placed 
against an extended wall and the ability to remove the crisper 
pans is desired, an additional 18" (45.72 cm) of cabinet width 
is required, so a total cabinet opening width of 54" 
(137.16 cm) is recommended.

Electrical Requirements

Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is 
important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

A 115 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 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.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation or cleaning, or 
removing a light bulb, turn cooling off or turn the control 
(Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending on the 
model) to OFF, and then disconnect the refrigerator from the 
electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the 
refrigerator to the electrical source and turn cooling on or reset the 
control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control depending on 
the model) to the desired setting. See “Using the Controls” in the 
User Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care Guide.

Water Supply Requirements

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. 
Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed 
here.
TOOLS NEEDED:  

NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 

¹⁄₄" 

(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing. 
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with 
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or 

³⁄₁₆" 

(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more 
easily.
IMPORTANT:

■

All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

■

Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing 
only in areas where the household temperatures will remain 
above freezing.

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 
120 psi (207 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.

■

If your refrigerator has a water dispenser: After installation is 
complete, use the water dispenser to check the water 
pressure.

■

With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of 
water. If 1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, 
the water pressure to the refrigerator meets the minimum 
requirement.

■

If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of 
water, the water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than 
recommended. See “Problem Solver” for suggestions.

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).
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. See “Water Filtration 
System” in the User Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care 
Guide.

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