 Installation Check List
Preparing For Installation
Be sure to coordinate site preparation and installation 
with your kitchen contractor.
Include these minimum guidelines in your site preparation:
 •  Choose a place near a grounded electrical outlet.
 •  Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
 •  Avoid direct sunlight and close proximity to a range,
dishwasher or other heat source.
 •  Floor should be level and able to support a fully
loaded refrigerator.
 •  The refrigerator’s Ice Dispenser
requires water supply access. 
 •  Plan for easy access to counter tops
when removing food.
 •  For complete access to drawers and
freezer baskets, doors must be able to 
fully open.
 •  Load refrigerator from side of cabinet
only.
 •  Do not run retaining straps over handles nor overtighten straps.
 •  Never use refrigerator handles to move the refrigerator.
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air

What’s Next?
Congratulations! You are ready to begin enjoying your new Frigidaire refrigerator. 
 •  For important safety instructions and to learn how to operate your refrigerator, please read
the entire Use & Care Guide.
 •  You may want to start with the “Normal Operating Sights & Sounds” section of the Guide to
learn what to expect during typical operation.
 •  Please register your product. You can register online at www.frigidaire.com or you can
simply send in the Registration Card.
Guidelines for final positioning of your refrigerator
 •  All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on the
floor.
 •  The sides should tilt ¼ inch (6 mm) from front to
back (to ensure that doors close and seal properly).
 •  Doors should align with each other and be level.
Most of these conditions can be met by raising or 
lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
  1  You can raise or lower each door. Use a 
3
/
8
 inch socket 
wrench to turn the adjustment screws (1 per side).
  To raise: turn adjustment screw clockwise.
  To lower:  turn adjustment screw counterclockwise.
  2  Ensure both doors are bind-free with their seals 
touching the cabinet on all four sides and that cabinet 
is stable.
 3  After unit is leveled, lower anti-tip leg until it contacts
the floor.
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet Valve
 1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power source.
 2. Place end of water supply line into sink or 
bucket. Turn ON water supply and flush
supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF 
water supply at shutoff valve.
 3. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet 
and discard cap.
 4. If you use copper tubing - Slide brass 
compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve) onto 
water supply line. Push water supply line into 
water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼ inch). 
Slide ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and 
finger tighten compression nut onto valve.
Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO 
NOT overtighten. See Figure 1.
   If you use stainless steel tubing - The nut 
and ferrule are already assembled on the 
tubing. Slide compression nut onto valve 
inlet and finger tighten compression nut
onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a 
wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See Figure 2.
 5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water 
supply line (copper tubing only) to rear panel 
of refrigerator as shown. 
6. Coil excess water supply line (copper tubing
only), about 2½ turns, behind refrigerator 
as shown and arrange coils so they do not 
vibrate or wear against any other surface. 
  7. Turn ON water supply at shutoff valve and 
tighten any connections that leak.
 8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power 
source.
 9. To turn ice maker on, lower wire signal arm 
(freezer ice maker) or set the ice maker’s On/
Off power switch to the “ON” position (fresh
food ice maker).
Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:
 •  Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade screwdriver, and
Phillips
TM
 screwdriver
 •  Access to a household cold water line with water pressure
between 30 and 100 psi.
 •  A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6 mm) OD, copper
or stainless steel tubing. To determine the length of 
tubing needed, measure the distance from the ice 
maker inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator to your 
cold water pipe. Then add approximately 7 feet, so the
refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning. 
 •  A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line to your
household water system. DO NOT use a self-piercing type 
shutoff valve.
 •  A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting a copper water supply line to the
ice maker inlet valve.
*Please refer to your Use & Care Guide for more details.

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or severe personal 
injury, do not connect your refrigerator to an electrical power source 
until you have completed Step 2 of these instructions.
CAUTION
•  Shifting the refrigerator from side to side 
may damage flooring.
•  Do not block the toe grille on the lower 
front of your refrigerator. Sufficient air cir-
culation is essential for proper operation.
IMPORTANT
If you are installing your refrigerator 
without connecting it to a water 
supply, make sure the ice maker’s
power switch is turned Off (see the 
Use & Care Guide for more details).
NOTE
If you need to remove the doors to get your refrigerator into the house, please refer to “Removing Doors”
in the Use & Care Guide. These installation instructions are provided only as a possible customer option. 
Frigidaire recommends that you use a service or kitchen contracting professional to install your refrigerator.
NOTE
Check with your local building authority for 
recommendations on water lines and associated 
materials prior to installing your new refrigerator.  
Depending on your local/state building 
codes, Frigidaire recommends for homes with 
existing valves its Smart Choice
®
 water line kit 
5305513409 (with a 6 ft. Stainless Steel Water 
Line) and for homes without an existing valve,
Frigidaire recommends its Smart Choice
®
 water 
line kit 5305510264 (with a 20 ft. Copper Water 
Line with self-tapping saddle valve). Please refer
to www.frigidaire.com for more information.
CAUTION
Room temperatures 
below 55°F (13°C) 
or above 110°F 
(43°C) will impair 
cooling ability of 
your refrigerator’s 
compressor.
NOTE
Please call 1-800-944-9044 if you 
need assistance with this installation.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, 
which can cause death 
or severe personal 
injury, disconnect the 
refrigerator from elec-
trical power before con-
necting a water supply 
line to the refrigerator.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is recommended for the wa-
ter supply line. Water supply tubing made of ¼ inch (6 mm) plastic 
is not recommended to be used. Plastic tubing greatly increases the 
potential for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not be respon-
sible for any damage if plastic tubing is used for the supply line.
• Do not reuse compression fitting or use thread seal tape.
• DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas where temperatures fall 
below freezing.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice maker. 
If the ice maker is connected to soft water, ensure that the softener 
is maintained and working properly.
