A cold water supply is required for automaticicemaker operation. If there is not a cold water supply,you will need to provide one. See Installing the WaterLine section.
NOTES:•Before making the connection to the refrigerator,be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged into the walloutlet.
•If your refrigerator does not have a water filter, we recommend installingone if your water supply has sand or particles that could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install it in the water line near the refrigerator. If using GESmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing Kit, you will need an additional tube (WX08X10002) to connect the filter. Do not cut plastic tube to install filter.

If you are using the GE SmartConnect™ tubing, the nuts are already assembled to the tubing.
