How to Connect the Water Supply

!WARNING

To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, disconnect power to refrigerator before connecting water supply. After connecting water supply, connect power.

!CAUTION

To avoid property damage, observe the following:

Consult a plumber to connect copper tubing to household plumbing to assure compliance with local codes and ordinances.

Confirm water pressure to water valve is between 20 and 100 pounds per square inch. If water filter is installed, water pressure to water valve must be a minimum of 35 pounds per square inch.

DO NOT use a self-piercing, or 3/16" (4.8 mm) saddle valve. Both reduce water flow, become clogged with time, and may cause leaks if repair is attempted.

Tighten nuts by hand to prevent cross threading. Finish tightening nuts with pliers and wrenches. Do not overtighten.

Wait 24 hours before placing unit into final position to check and correct any water leaks.

Materials Needed

1/4" (6 mm) outer diameter flexible copper tubing

NOTE: Add 8' (2 m) to tubing length needed to reach water supply for creation of service loop.
