5Installation RequirementsIf the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa): Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverseosmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary. Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refillafter heavy usage. If your refrigerator has a water filter cartridge, it may furtherreduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with areverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter cartridge.If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,qualified plumber.Tipping RadiusBe sure there is adequate ceiling height to stand the refrigeratorupright when it is moved into place. The dolly wheel height must be added to the tipping radiuswhen a dolly is used. If needed, the tipping radius can be reduced. See ReduceTipping Radius.Side Tipping RadiusThe side tipping radius varies depending upon the width of themodel. Use the chart provided to determine the side tippingradius.NOTE: Tip on side only.Model Series Tipping Radius AEF42, IF42 93” (236.2 cm)EF48, IF48 96” (243.8 cm)Water Supply Requirements All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements. The water shutoff should be located in the base cabinet oneither side of the refrigerator or some other easily accessiblearea. The right-hand side is recommended.NOTE: If the water shut off valve is in the back wall behind therefrigerator, it must be at an angle so that the water line is notkinked when the refrigerator is pushed into its final position. If the water shutoff valve is not in the cabinets, the plumbingfor the water line can come through the floor. A ½” (1.3 cm)hole for plumbing should be drilled at least 6” (15.2 cm) fromthe right or left hand side cabinet or panel. On the floor, thehole should be no more than 1” (2.5 cm) away from the backwall. See Connect Water Supply. Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¼” (6.4 mm)saddle-type shutoff valve. Before purchasing, make sure asaddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄16 ” (4.8 mm) saddle valve whichreduces water flow and clogs more easily. Install the water supply line only in areas where the householdtemperatures will remain above freezing.Water PressureA cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi(207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser andice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call alicensed, qualified plumber.Reverse Osmosis Water SupplyIMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out ofa reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of therefrigerator needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827kPa). If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connectedto your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverseosmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to414 kPa).1” x 1”(2.5 cm x 2.5 cm)Possible waterline locations6”(15.2 cm)6”(15.2 cm)1”(2.5 cm)AA
