Cold water supply, Connecting to water line

Cold water supply

The ice maker water valve contains a flow washer which is used as a water pressure regulator. The ice maker needs to be connected to a cold water line with water pressure limitations of 20-120 psi. If a problem occurs, call your utility company.

IMPORTANT:

lIt may take up to 24 hours for your ice maker to begin producing ice.

lIf operating the refrigerator before install- ing the water connection, turn ice maker to the OFF position to prevent operation without water.

. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.

INSTALLATION IS NOT WARRANTED BY REFRIGERATOR OR ICE MAKER MANUFACTURER.

Connecting to water line

1. Find a X-inch to 1X-inch vertical COLD

water pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the

following precaution must be taken: Drill

on the top side of the pipe, not the

bottom. This will help keep water away

from the drill. This also keeps normal

sediment from collecting in the valve.

2. Measure from connection on rear of

refrigerator to water pipe. Add 7 feet

(2.1 m) to allow for moving refrigerator

for cleaning. This is the length of N-inch

O.D. copper tubing you will need for the
