Proper Disposal of your Refrigerator or Freezer
Risk of child entrapment Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous

• even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers
We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for more information on recycling your old refrigerator.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator/ freezer:

• move doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service technician.

WARNING
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety mechanisms in this refrigerator will operate properly.

Electrical information

• The refrigerator must be plugged into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of the appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and before replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10% or more. Operating the refrigerator with insufficient power can damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered under your warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the refrigerator from being turned off accidentally.

IMPORTANT
Turning the Refrigerator controls to “0” will disable your refrigerator’s cooling system, but does not disconnect the power to the light bulb and other electrical components.
To turn off power to your refrigerator you
must unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Grounding type wall receptacleCFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone if released to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants may also cause harm to the environment if released to the atmosphere. If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified technician. If you intentionally release refrigerant, you may be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator from electrical power before connecting a water supply line to the refrigerator.

CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:

• Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing is recommended for the water supply line. Water supply tubing made of ¼ inch plastic is not recommended to be used. Plastic tubing greatly increases the potential for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage if plastic tubing is used for the supply line.
• 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.

IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line connec-tions comply with all local plumbing codes.
Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade screwdriver, and PhillipsTM screwdriver
• Access to a household cold water line with water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
• A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4 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 (2.1 meters), so the refrigerator can be moved out for cleaning (as shown).
• A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line to your household water system. DO NOT use a self-piercing type shutoff valve.
• Do not re-use compression fitting or use thread seal tape.
•  A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting a copper water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve.
  

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/store for more information.

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 / 6.4 mm). Slide ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT over tighten. See Figure 1.  If you use braided flexible stainless steel tubing – The nut is already assembled on the tubing. Slide nut onto valve inlet and finger tighten nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT over tighten. See Figure2
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 (side mounted) or set the ice maker’s On/Off power switch to the “I” position (rear mounted).
   NOTE
   These instructions do not cover after market ice maker installation. Instructions in after market ice maker kit should be used.

ICE SERVICE

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, minimal ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days to fill the ice container. New plumbing connections may cause the first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.
NOTE
Automatic ice makers are also optional accessories that may be installed in most models at any time. Call your local dealer for information.

Turning your Ice Maker On
After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower the wire signal arm to its “down” or ON position.
Turning your Ice Maker Off
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the “up” or OFF position. The ice maker also turns off automatically when the ice container is full.IMPORTANT
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the wire signal arm in the ON position. To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook up water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position. If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not connected, the water valve will make a loud chattering noise.

ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT TO EXPECT
The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8 cubes every 80 to 160 minutes.
CAUTION
Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

Cool Down Period
To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to operate with the doors closed for at least 8 hours before loading it with food.

Refrigerator & Freezer Controls

NOTE
When first turning refrigerator on, adjust control to recommended. This is the recom-mended initial setting. After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed.

IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator temperature control to “0” turns off the compressor and prevents the refrigerator from cooling, but does not dis-connect the power to the light bulb and other electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

Temperature Adjustment

• Adjust temperature gradually: adjust the knob in small increments, allowing the temperature to stabilize.
• For colder temperatures, adjust the knob towards coldest.
• For warmer temperatures, adjust the knob towards cold.

Adjusting the refrigerator control will change temperatures in both compartments. The auxiliary freezer control can be left at the factory pre-set (mid position) or adjusted as desired; it has no effect on electrical power to the refrigerator.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items.

CAUTION
Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT
If you install your refrigerator in a garage or other unheated area, you may experience freezer temperature problems during the winter months when temperatures dip below 55° F.
Upgrading your refrigerator with a Garage Kit will lower the minimum operating temperature of your unit to 34° F. This kit can be ordered by calling the phone number listed at the bottom of the warranty page or back cover at an additional cost.

STORAGE FEATURES

CAUTION
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury or property damage, handle tempered glass shelves carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden temperature change.

Shelf Adjustment

Refrigerator shelves are easily adjusted to suit individual needs. Before adjusting the shelves, remove all food.
To adjust sliding shelves:

1. Remove shelf by pulling forward to stop position.
2. Lift front edge up and pull out.

To replace shelf, rest side edges on any pair of shelf rails and carefully push shelf back into position.
Door storage

Door bins, shelves, and racks are provided for convenient storage of jars, bottles, and cans.
Frequently used items can be quickly selected.
The dairy compartment, which is warmer than the general food storage section, is intended for short term storage of cheese, spreads, or butter.
Door rack
Some models have door racks or bins that can accommodate gallon-sized plastic drink containers and economy-sized jars and containers.
To remove door rack:

1. Push on rack sides to release from locking tabs.
2. Pull straight out.

To install door rack:

1. Push rack straight ahead.
2. You will hear the sides lock into the tabs.

STORAGE FEATURES

Crisper Humidity Control (some models)
The crisper humidity control, present on the crisper drawers of some models, allows you to adjust the humidity within the crisper. This can extend the life of fresh vegetables that keep best in high humidity.
NOTE
Leafy vegetables keep best when stored with the Humidity Control set on High Humidity, or in a drawer without a Humid-ity Control. This keeps incoming air to a minimum and maintains maximum moisture content. Store non-leafy vegetables and fruits still in their skins at the low humidity setting.

Crispers (some models)
The crispers, located under the bottom refrigerator shelf, are designed for storing fruits, vegetables, and other fresh produce. Wash items in clear water and remove excess water before placing them in the crispers. Items with strong odors or high moisture content should be wrapped before storing.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS

Understanding the sounds you may hear

Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate your refrigerator is operating correctly. Some surfaces on floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make these sounds more noticeable.
NOTE
Rigid foam insulation is very energy efficient, but is not a sound insulator.Following is a list of major components in your refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:

1. Evaporator Refrigerant through the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound.
2. Evaporator fan You may hear air being forced through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.
3. Defrost heater During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur.
   IMPORTANT 
   During the automatic defrost cycle, you may notice a red glow in the vents on the back wall of your freezer compartment. This is normal during the defrost cycle.
4. Automatic ice maker When ice has been produced, you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin.
5. Automatic Defrost control These parts can produce a snapping or clicking sound when turning the cooling system on and off.
6. Condenser fan You may hear air being  forced through the condenser.
7. Compressor Modern, high-efficiency compressors run much faster than in the past. The compressor may have a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
8. Water valve If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic ice maker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the water valve opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.
9. Drain pan (not removable) You may hear water dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.
10. Condenser May create minimal sounds from forced air.

CARE AND CLEANING

Protecting your investment

Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains appearance and prevents odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean the freezer and fresh food compartments at least twice a year. When cleaning, take the following precautions:

• Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with bleach to clean stainless steel.
• Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
• Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.
• Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface.
• Do not remove the serial plate.
