CHANGING THE FILTER

PURE ADVANTAGE™ Air Filter
Your new Pure Advantage air filter is located
inside one of the 2-Liter Door Bins. The air
filter cover is located on the upper right side
of the control box. In general, you should
change the air filter with Part Number "EAFCBF"
every six months to ensure optimal filtering of
freezer odors. The replacement air filter can
be purchased on the Frigidaire website (http://
frigidaire.stores.yahoo.net) or call toll free in
the U.S. and Canada: 1-800-599-7569. Your
electronic control is equipped with a Replace
Filter indicator to remind you to change your
filter. See ELECTRONIC CONTROL section.

Advantage™ air filter cover to release the

CONNECTING WATER SUPPLY

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can cause death
or severe personal injury, disconnect the
freezer from electrical power before connecting
a water supply line to the freezer.
CAUTION
• 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.
NOTE

Ensure that your water supply line connections
comply with all local plumbing codes.
Before Installing The Water Supply
Line, You Will Need:
• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade
screwdriver, and Phillips
• 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 deter-
mine the length of tubing needed, measure
the distance from the ice maker inlet valve at
the back of the freezer to your cold water pipe.
Then add approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters),
so the freezer 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.
• A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for con-
necting a copper water supply line to the ice
maker inlet valve.
