Cleaning your Refrigerator
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning the refrigerator on. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.
After you remove all of the package materials, clean the inside of your refrigerator before using it. See the CARE AND CLEANING section in this manual.
See important information about cleaning glass shelves and covers in the STORAGE FEATURES section of this manual.


Moving your Refrigerator
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refrigerator for cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull the refrigerator straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or "walk" the refrigerator when trying to move it as you could damage the floor.

INSTALLATION

This Use & Care Guide provides general operating instructions for your model. Use the appliance only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the unit, follow these important first steps.

Location

  • Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
  • If possible, place the refrigerator out of direct sunlight and away from the range, dishwasher or other heat sources.
  • The refrigerator must be installed on a floor that is level and strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator.
  • Consider water supply availability for models equipped with an automatic ice maker. If you do not hook up water to the refrigerator, remember to turn the ice maker off.

Installation

Installation clearances

  • Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing and electrical connections:
Top 3.94" 100 mm
Sides 1.57" 40 mm
Back 1.18" 30 mm

information NOTE
If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge side against a wall, you may have to allow additional space for the handle so the door can be opened wider.


Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 50°F (10°C) or rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperatures inside the refrigerator.

Guidelines for final positioning of your product

  • All 4 corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on the floor.
  • The cabinet should be level at the front and rear.
  • The sides should tilt ¼" (6 mm) from front to back (to ensure that doors close and seal properly).
  • Doors should align with each other and be level.

Setting the Anti-tip Brackets


The anti-tip brackets are located on the lower front corners of the cabinet. Lower the anti-tip brackets on each side clockwise until they contact the floor. Do not raise the cabinet.


The anti-tip bracket must be installed according to the instructions in your Use & Care Manual. Failure to do so will result in injury.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

Ice Maker Models Only


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.


To Avoid Property Damage:

  • Use stainless steel braided tubing for the water supply line. Do not use water supply tubing made of ¼ in. plastic. Plastic tubing greatly increases the potential for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage if you use plastic tubing 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.


Ensure that your water supply line connections comply with all local plumbing codes.

information 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 5304437642 (with a 6 ft. Stainless Steel Water Line) and for homes without an existing valve, Frigidaire recommends its Smart Choice water line kit 5304493869 (with a 6' Polyline Waterline). Please refer to www.frigidaire.com for more information.

information NOTE
These instructions do not cover aftermarket ice maker installation. Use instructions in the after market ice maker kit (IM117000).

Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

  • Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade screwdriver, and Phillips 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 reuse 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.

To Connect the Water Supply Line To the Ice Maker Inlet Valve

  1. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical power source.
  2. Place the end of water supply line into a sink or bucket. Turn ON the water supply and flush the supply line until the water is clear. Turn OFF the water supply at the shutoff valve.
  3. Remove the plastic cap from the water valve inlet and discard the cap.
  4. If you use copper tubing, slide brass compression nut, and then the ferrule (sleeve) onto the water supply line. Push the water supply line into the water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼" / 6.4 mm). Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into valve inlet and finger tighten the compression nut onto the valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See below.

    (Include enough tubing in loop to allow moving refrigerator out for cleaning.)

If you use braided flexible stainless steel tubing, the nut is already assembled on the tubing. Slide the nut onto the valve inlet and finger tighten the nut onto valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See below.

(Include enough tubing to allow moving refrigerator out for cleaning.)

  1. With the steel clamp and screw, secure the water supply line (copper tubing only) to the rear panel of refrigerator as shown.
  2. Coil the excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about 2½ turns, behind the refrigerator as shown and arrange the coils so they do not vibrate or wear against any other surface.
  3. To turn the ice maker on, press the ice maker's On/Off power switch so the LED is illuminated.
    Turning the ice maker on
  4. Turn ON the water supply at the shutoff valve and tighten any connections that leak.
  5. Reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical power source.

ICE MAKER

information NOTE
Automatic ice makers are optional accessories that you may install in most models at any time. Visit www.frigidaire.com for information about Ice Maker Kit 117000.

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will produce minimal ice during the first 24 hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately 1 to 2 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.


The ice maker is shipped in the On position. To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook up the water supply immediately or turn the ice maker Off. If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not connected, the water valve will make a loud chattering noise.

Turning your Ice Maker On
After completely connecting the plumbing, you must open the water supply valve. Place the ice container under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Press the ice maker's On/Off button.

Turning your Ice Maker Off
To stop the ice maker, press the ice maker's On/Off button. The ice maker regulates the ice production and stops making ice when full and starts again when ice is low in the ice container.

ICE PRODUCTION: WHAT TO EXPECT
The ice maker will produce 2 to 2.5 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 10 cubes every 100 to 160 minutes.


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.

Product Controls

(some models)

information NOTE
When first turning the refrigerator on, adjust the control to Recommended. After 24 hours, adjust the controls as needed.

Product Controls - Refrigerator Control
Refrigerator Control


Adjusting the refrigerator temperature control to OFF turns off the compressor and prevents the refrigerator from cooling, 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 wall outlet.

Temperature Adjustment

Product Controls - Auxiliary Freezer Control
Auxiliary Freezer Control

Adjust the temperature gradually: adjust the knob in small increments, allowing the temperature to stabilize.

  • For colder temperatures, adjust the control toward Coldest.
  • For warmer temperatures, adjust the control toward Cold.

Adjusting the refrigerator control will change temperatures in both compartments. The auxiliary freezer control can be left at the factory preset (*Recommended) or adjusted as desired; it has no effect on electrical power to the refrigerator.

To maintain temperature, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items.

STORAGE FEATURES

information NOTE
Automatic ice makers are optional accessories that you may install in most models at any time. Visit www.frigidaire.com for information about Ice Maker Kit 117000.

Shelf Adjustment


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.


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.

The shelves are easy to adjust to suit individual needs. Before adjusting the shelves, remove all food.

To adjust shelves, slide the shelf by moving it forward and lifting it upward.


To replace shelves, insert the rear of the shelf into any pair of shelf rails and carefully push the shelf back into position, making sure the shelf clips (A) go in the notch in the liner.


When reinstalling the shelf, ensure the shelf clip is attached to the liner and holds it in place.

Door Storage

Door bins and shelves 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 Bin

Some models have door racks or bins that can accommodate gallon-sized plastic drink containers and economy-sized jars and containers.

To remove the door bin:

  1. Lift up on the bin
  2. Pull it straight out.

To install the door bin:

  1. Push the bin back and down into the locking tabs.
  2. The bin sides will lock into the tabs.

Crisper Humidity Control

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.
Using the Crisper Humidity Control

information NOTE
Leafy vegetables keep best when stored with the Humidity Control set on High Humidity, or in a drawer without a Humidity 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.

Sliding Deli Drawer

(some models)
Use the deli drawer for storage of luncheon meats, spreads, cheeses, and other deli items. Please be sure to support the glass when removing the drawer.

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.
Understanding the sounds you may hear

information 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.


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.

  1. Automatic defrost control
    These parts can produce a snapping or clicking sound when turning the cooling system on and off.
  2. Compressor
    Modern, high-efficiency compressors run much faster than in the past. The compressor may have a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
  3. Drain pan (not removable)
    You may hear water dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.

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 refrigerator 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.

Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet liners. Do not use paper towels, metallic scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials or strong alkaline solutions.

information NOTE
If you set your temperature controls to turn off cooling, power to lights and other electrical components will continue until you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.


Pull the refrigerator straight out to move it. Shifting it from side to side may damage flooring. Be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.


If you store or move your refrigerator in freezing temperatures, be sure to completely drain the water supply system. Failure to do so could result in water leaks when the refrigerator is put back into service. Contact a service representative to perform this operation.
