NOTE: 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.

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 and approved accessories 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, cleaning, or 
removing a light bulb, turn Cooling OFF, and then disconnect the 
refrigerator from the electrical source. When you have finished, 
reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and turn 
Cooling ON. See “Using the Control(s).”

A cold water supply with water pressure between 35 and 120 psi 
(241 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.

NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow 
of water from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes 
could be hollow or irregular shaped.

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 35 and 120 psi (241 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).

■

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 use. The tank capacity could be too small to keep 
up with the requirements of the refrigerator. 

NOTE: Faucet mounted reverse osmosis systems are not 
recommended.

■

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.

Read all directions before you begin.

■

Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the 
International Plumbing Code and any local codes and 
ordinances.

■

The gray water tubing on the back of the refrigerator (which is 
used to connect to the household water line) is a PEX 
(cross-linked polyethylene) tube. Copper and PEX tubing 
connections from the household water line to the refrigerator 
are acceptable, and will help avoid off-taste or odor in your 
ice or water. Check for leaks.

If PEX tubing is used instead of copper, we recommend the 
following Whirlpool Part Numbers: 
W10505928RP (7 ft [2.14 m] jacketed PEX), 
8212547RP (5 ft [1.52 m] PEX), or 
W10267701RP (25 ft [7.62 m] PEX).  

■

Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain 
above freezing.

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

NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or 

³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve 

which reduces water flow and clogs easier.
