!CAUTION

Observe the following to avoid property damage:

•Confirm water pressure to water valve is between 20 and 100 pounds per square inch.

•Copper supply tubing must be routed where the temperature is 55°F (13°C) or higher to prevent freeze-ups.

•Start adaptor fitting and nuts by hand to avoid cross threading. Tighten adaptor fitting and nuts with pliers and wrenches. Do not overtighten.

•Check for water leaks and correct if necessary before returning refrigerator to normal location, and 24 hours after connecting.

Important

•Before connecting water supply, contact a plumber to connect copper tubing to household plumbing in compliance with local codes and ordinances.

•DO NOT use self-piercing type or 3/16" saddle valves! Both reduce water flow, develop sediment build-up more rapidly, and may cause leaks if repair is attempted. The correct type of shut-off valve requires a 1/4" hole to be drilled on top or side (not bottom of horizantal pipe) of water supply pipe prior to valve attachment.

Materials Required

1/4" O.D. (6 mm) flexible copper tubing. Length of copper tubing must reach from water supply connection to water valve inlet port on back of refrigerator plus an additional

8 ft. (2 m) of tubing for a service loop. A service loop will allow refrigerator to be pulled away from the wall without disconnecting tubing.
