8.FLUSH OUT THE TUBING

Turn on the main water supply and flush water through the

tubing into a bucket until the water runs clear.

Shut the water off at the water

valve after about one quart of water has been flushed through the tubing.

6.ROUTE THE TUBING

Route the copper tubing between the cold water pipe and the refrigerator.

Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the wall or floor (behind the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet) as close to the wall as possible.

NOTE: Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet coiled into 3 turns of about 10" diameter) to

allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.
