STEP 1 REMOVE PACKAGING
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard. This
appliance is top heavy. Use extreme caution with
moving to prevent tipping over which could result in
death or serious injury.
Ŷ Remove outer carton and external packing from units.
Ŷ Inspect for damage.
Ŷ If installation will require the door swing to be
reversed, follow the instructions in Reversing the
Door Swing section to reverse the door swing
BEFORE the unit is removed from the shipping skid.
Ŷ Ensure the flooring that the units are set is clean/
free of debris that could be collected on to, or
pinched in front of the wheels and damaging the
floor. Additionally, it is recommended that the floor
be protected with a plastic covering through out the
installation process.
Ŷ Remove hardware kit from top drawer.
Ŷ If installation requires a 90° door opening, the hinge
limiter pin must be installed
in the top hinge BEFORE
the unit is removed from the
shipping skid. Pin is located in
the hardware kit.
- Open the door approximately
45°, but no wider than 90°,
to expose the hole in the
back hinge bracket and
install the limiting pin. Pin
must be fully seated in the
bracket or the door will not close properly.
Ŷ Remove front access cover from unit by removing
two 1/4” Hex Screws (some models have access
cover in a box on the left side of the cabinet).
Place the cover and screws to the side for future
installation.
Ŷ Remove three 3/8” drive screws and two 7/16” drive
screws from each side of the unit to release it from
the shipping skid. Tip the unit from the side enough
to remove the shipping material from under the unit,
but above the shipping skid (both sides)
Ŷ CAREFULLY roll the unit off the back side of the
shipping skid.
Ŷ Handle from side only with a hand truck.
STEP 2 INSTALL WATER LINE
Ŷ A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker
and AutoFill pitcher operation. The water pressure
must be between 40 and 120 p.s.i. (275-827 kPa).
Shut off the main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the
line of water.
ŶInstall a shut-off valve between the water valve and
cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet. The shut-
off valve should be located where it will be easily
accessible.
ŶTurn on the main water supply and flush debris.
Run about a quart of water through the tubing into a
bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off valve.
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in
many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure
a saddle type valve complies with your local plumbing
codes.
NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing
Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle
valves are illegal and use is not permitted in
Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.

ZKR48N Trim Retro Kit to the house cold water line.
Tighten the compression nut hand tight, then tighten
one additional turn with a wrench. Overtightening
can cause leaks!
Ŷ Connect the other end of the jumper water line to the
water fitting tee supplied in the trim retro kit. Tighten
the compression nut hand tight, then tighten one
additional turn with a wrench. Overtightening can
cause leaks!
