Troubleshooting Guide
Water Leaks at Threaded Fittings:
Tighten slightly more until leak stops.
Water leaks at Push-in Connections
Push tubing in as far as it will go. If leaking continues, shut off water at the original valve and remove water line by pushing in on the connector collar while pulling the tubing away. Use a catch basin (See Push-in Fittings Section) Inspect tubing for cracks and scratches. If tubing is cracked or scratched, cut that portion away and reinsert tubing into fitting.
Make sure tubing is cut straight. If not, recut.
