5POWER CORD ADAPTER

(on some models)

There is a power cord adapter (18) included with the kit. Visually inspect to see if the power cord on the icemaker matches the socket on the rear wall of the freezer compartment. If needed, secure the adapter to the side of the icemaker power cord. When connecting the adapter to the power cord, make sure the seal is in place between the connectors, and ensure that both connector locks are snapped in place. Secure the power cord adapter to the icemaker by putting it into the hook at the back of the icemaker and attaching it to the icemaker with a wire tie (20).
