The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug that mates with a standard
three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified

Use of Adapter plug
Because of potential hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against use of
an adapter plug. However, if you still elect to use an

Flooring

For proper installation, the refrigerator and freezer must
be placed on a level surface of hard material that is at
the same height as the rest of the flooring. The floor
must be strong enough to support a fully loaded product,
or approximately 1,200Ibs.

NOTE:Protect the finish of the flooring. Cut a large
section of the cardboard carton and place under the
product where you are working.

Step

Packaging

Refrigerator is much heavier at the top than at the
bottom - be careful when moving. When using a
hand truck, handle from side only.

• The unit is secured to the skid with 3 slotted tie-down
straps. First remove the 5/16"bolts from the base
channels in the tie-downs, then remove the 7/16" bolts
securing the straps to the skid.
• Protect the flooring. Cut a large piece of the cardboard carton and place under the product where you
are working.
• Support blocks on the bottom must be removed before
the refrigerator is taken off the skid or damage will
occur. Remove support blocks by carefully tilting
cabinet to side and sliding out.
• Lift the refrigerator off the skid with an appliance
dolly. Handle from the sides.

• A cold water supply is required for automatic
icemaker operation. The water pressure must be
between 20 and 120p.s.i.
• Route 1/4" OD copper or 6E SmartConnect:Mtubing
between house cold water line and the water
connection location.

Floor

Tubing J
• Tubing should be long enough to extend to the front
of the freezer. Allow enough to accommodate bend
leading into the water valve.
NOTE:The only BE approved plastic tubing is supplied
in the BE SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing Kits.
Do not use any other plastic water supply line because
the line is under pressure at all times. Other types of
plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause water
damage to your home.
TM

BE SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing Kits are
available in the following lengths:
2' (0.6 m) WX08Xl0OO2

25' (7.6 m) WX08X10025
TM

Shutoff the main water supply
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line
of water.
Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water
valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet.
The shut-off valve should be located where it will be
easily accessible.
NOTE:Saddletype shut-off valves are included in many
water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure asaddle
type valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
• Install optional water filter in the water line near the
freezer. A water filter is recommended in areas where
water supply contains sand or particles. Installation
instructions are packed with the filter.

NOTE:Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing
Codes 2480MR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are
illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts.
Consult with your licensed plumber.

Side

Panels

• Side panels are required whenever the sides of the
product will be exposed and when installed between
frameless cabinets. See pages 3 and 4.
• Side panels are not required when installed into an
enclosure.
• Side panel installation will be determined bythe
design of the side panel you have previously chosen.
• Side panels must be installed plumb.

• If you choose to use 1/4" side panels, they should be
inserted into the case trim as illustrated. Fasten the
panels to the product with stick-on hook and loop
fastener strips before setting in place. See
illustration A.
• 1/2"to 3/4" side mnels are normally set into place and
fastened to adjacent cabinetry or the back wall before
rolling the product into the opening. See illustration B.

The rear leveling wheels and front leveling legs are
limited to a maximum height adjustment of 1".If the
installation requires more than 84-1/2" height, the
installer should elevate the refrigerator on a sheet
