This refrigerator inust be properl) installedand located in accordance with the Installation
hlstluctions befi)re it is used.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refl'igerator. They could
damage the refl'igerator and seriously ii_jm'e
themselves.
Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.Skin may stick to these extremely cold
SI/I'I';I ces,
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammablevapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any

USEOFEXTENSIONCORDSBecause of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend againstthe use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessarx that it be a UiAisted,
3-wire gmtmding type appliance extension cord haxing a ,gr°unding, tX,'l)e l)lug, and outlet andthat the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimmn) and 12(1 xolts.
www.Hotpointcom
WARNING!HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITYDo not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.For personal safety, this appfiance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equippedwith a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (gromMing) wall outletto minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard fl'om this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sm'e the outlet isproperly gromMed.
Where a standard 2-pr(mg wall (mtlet isencountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with aproperly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged intoits own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
This l)rovides the best perflwmance and alsoprevents overloading house wiring circuits whichcould cause a fire hazard fl'om overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip l)lug firmly and pullstraight out fl'om the outlet.
]),el)air or replace immediately all power cordsthat have become fl'aved or otherwise damaged.D() not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the refl'igerator away fl'om thewall, be careflfl not to roll over or damage thepower cord.
USEOFADAPTERPLUGSBecause of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend againstthe use of an adapter plug.
However; if you must use an adapter; where local
codes pemdt, a temporary connection may be madeto a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
of a UIAisted adapter available at most localhardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned
with the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide
proper polariS' in the connection of the powercord.
When disconnecting the power cord fl'om the
adapter, always hold the adapter in i)lace with
one hand while pulling the power cord plug with
the other hand, If this is not done, the adapter
grotmd terminal is very likely to break with
repeated use.
If the adapter ground tem/inal breaks, DO NOTUSEthe refrigerator until a proper gromM hasbeen established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a waft outletcover screw does not ground the appliance unless thecover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the waft
outlet is grounded through the house wiring Youshouldhave the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the outlet is properly grounde_

Installation Instructions
B INSTALLING THE WATER LINE
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ilecommended coi)per water supply kits are _._TXSX2,
WXSX3 or WXSX4, depending on the amom_t oftubing you need. Approved plastic water supply lines
are refrigerator tubing kits WX08X10002,WX08X10006, WX08X10015 and WX08X10025.
When connecting your refl'igerator to a reverse
osmosis water system, follow the mamffactm'er's
I'e COIIlIIl en da tions.
This water line installation is not warranted by the
refl'igerator or icemaker mamdhctm'er. Follow theseinstructions carefldlv to minimize the risk of expensive
water damage.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in housei_lmnbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and
lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualifiedplmnber to correct water hammer bet)re installingthe water supply line to the refl'igerator.
To prevent bm'ns and product damage, do not hookup the water line to the hot water line.
If wm use yoHr refrigerator 1)eiore connecting thewater line, make sure the icemaker power switch is
in the 0 (off} position (on power switch models) or the
teeler arm is in the STOP (up) position (on feeler armmodels).
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where
temperatures tall below fl'eezing.
When using any electrical device (such as a power
drill) during installation, be sure the device is doubleinsulated or grounded in a manner to prevent the
hazard of electric shock, or is battery powered.
All installations must be in accordance with local
i_lmnbing code requirements.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
• Copper or approved plastic refrigerator tubing kit,
1/4" outer diameter to connect the refrigeratorto the water sui)ply. If using COl)per, be sm'e both
ends of the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much tubing you need: measurethe distance ti'om the water wflve on the back of the
refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then add 8'
(2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing(about 8' [2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about l 0"
[25 cm] diameter) to allow the reti'igerator to moveout from the wall atter installation.
Approved plastic refl'igerator tubing kits are available
in the fl}llowing lengths:
2' (0.6 m) - WX08X10002
6' (1.8 m) - X,\TX08X10006
15' (4.6 m) - WX08X10015
25' (7.6 m) - X,\3X08X10025
Be sure that the kit you select allows at least 8' (2.4 m)as described above.
NOTE: The tufty approved plastic tubing is thatsupplied in the refrigerator tubing Mts listed above.
Do not use m_y other plastic water supply line becausethe line is raider pressure at all thnes. Certain types
of plastic will crack or rupture with age and cause
water damage to your home.

Normal operating sounds, w Ho,poi.,.om
Newer refrigerators sound different from older refrigerators. Modern refrigeratorshave more features and use newer technology.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
HUMMM...-- WHOOSH...
• The new high efficiency compressor may _un tasterand longer than wmr old refl'igerator and you may
hear a high-i_itched hum or pulsating sotmd whileit is operating.
• Ybu may hear a whooshing sotmd when the (loo_s close.This is due to pressm'e equalizing within the refrigerator
CLICKS, POPS,CRACKS and CHIRPS
• You may hear cracking or i)oi)ping sotmds when the
refl'igerator is first i)lugged in. This hal)pens as therefl'igerator cools to the correct temperature.
• The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping
sotmd when attempting to restart (this could takeup to 5 ininutes).
• Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during
and alter defl'ost can cause a cracking or i)oi)pingsotlnd.
• On models with an icemaker, alter an icemakingcycle, you may hear the ice cubes dropping intothe ice bucket.
WHIRl
• You may hear the rims spinning at high speeds.
This hal)pens when the refrigerator is first plugged
in, when the doors are opened fl'equently or when
a large amount of food is added to the refl'igerator
or fl'eezer compartments. The rims are helping to
maintain the correct temperatures,
WATERSOUNDS
6• The flow of refl'igerant through the fl'eezer cooling
coils may make a gm'gling noise like boiling water,
• _&'ater dropping on the defrost heater C_lll cause asizzling, I)opping or buzzing SOtlild during thedefl'ost cycle.
• A water dripping noise may occur dm'ing the defl'ost
cycle as ice melts fl'om the ewq)orator and fows intothe drain pan.
• Closing the door may cause a gm'gling sotmd due topressure equalization.
