Grounding the Refrigerator
• This refrigerator’s power cord has a 3-prong (grounding)
plug, which inserts into a standard 3-prong (grounding)
wall outlet to minimize the risk of electric shock.
• Ensure a qualified electrician verifies that the wall outlet
and circuit are properly grounded.
• It is the homeowner’s responsibility to have the proper
outlet installed. (Do not use a GFI outlet.)
Water-Pressure Requirements
The water dispenser and icemaker need a cold-water
supply with 30–120 psi (207–827 kPa) water pressure.
If you install a reverse-osmosis system between the water
supply and refrigerator, the water pressure from the supply
to the osmosis system must be 40–60 psi and from there to
the refrigerator, 30–120 psi.
A licensed plumber can answer questions about water
pressure.
CAUTION
FOR YOUR SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROP-
ERLY GROUNDED.
