Jade Built-In Refrigerators Design Manual - page 7
Electrical Connection
This appliance is designed to operate on a normal 115 volt, 15 amp,
60 cycle line. There should be a separate, grounded circuit serving
this appliance only. Do not use an extension cord. Do not use any
device that will alter the electrical performance of this appliance.
For the placement of the electrical outlet, refer to Figure 1. Do not
use a ground fault circuit interrupter.
Plumbing Requirements
•
Rough in the water line for the location (FIG. 1).
•
Connect a
1
⁄
4
" (0.64 cm) copper line to the house water supply
in compliance with local codes and ordinances.
•
Use a shutoff valve between the refrigerator and water
supply. The shutoff should be a drilled saddle valve. Do not
use a self-tapping valve.
•
The icemaker operates on 30 — 120 PSI.
•
Route the water line within
1
⁄
2
" (1.3cm) of the wall and no higher
than 3" (7.6 cm) from the floor. Allow at least 3' (0.91 m) of excess
copper tubing outside the wall for easy connection to the
water valve.
Uncrating The Unit
Uncrate the unit. Remove the lower shipping bolts and brackets.
Slide the unit off of the crate base. Remove and save the
lower toe kickplate, anti-tipping brackets and mounting hardware
(FIG. 2a). Remove the upper cover (this will help when moving the
unit) (FIG. 2b).
Even though Jade™ built-in refrigerators are available in a wide
range of design styles and configurations, the basic installation
planning information for all models has things in common. After
the decision has been made to install a Jade™ built-in refrigera-
tor, be sure to review the installation requirements for the model
design chosen.
Make sure the opening where the unit will be installed is
properly prepared. Refer to Figure 1. Also check placements
for the electrical outlet and water line as shown in Figure 1.
For the door to open properly, it must be able to open at least
90 degrees. For installation in a corner, a 2" (5.1cm) filler strip is
required to ensure the 90-degree opening. Be sure to add the
filler strip width to your finished rough-in dimension.
The floor under the refrigerator has to be level with the
surrounding floor. To protect the floor when moving the refrigera-
tor, place cardboard or a carpet remnant with the backing placed
up on the floor.
I N STA L L AT I O N G U I D E – GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
IMPORTANT TIP: In homes with a reverse-osmosis water
treatment system, remove the water inlet connector from
the yellow valve and attach to the blue valve. Make sure the
water filter bypass plug is in place.
