Electrical Requirements
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is 
important to make sure you have the proper electrical 
connection.
Recommended Grounding Method
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.”
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.
Water Pressure
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.
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).
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.”
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, 
qualified plumber.
Connect Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the 
International Plumbing Code and any local codes and 
ordinances.
Use copper tubing or Whirlpool supply line, Part Number 
8212547RP, and check for leaks.
Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain 
above freezing.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. 
Flat-blade screwdriver
⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
¹⁄₄" nut driver
Connect to Water Line
IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line 
is connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long 
enough to clear line of water.
3. Use a quarter-turn shutoff valve or the equivalent, served by a 
¹⁄₂" copper household supply line. 
Flat-blade screwdriver
⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" Open-end or two 
adjustable wrenches
¹⁄₄" Nut driver
¹⁄₄" Drill bit
Cordless drill
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, 
fire, or electrical shock.
