Special Installation Instructions for Australia and New Zealand.

Installing the Water Line (cont.)

Connecting the Tubing to the Shutoff Valve

Attach the fitting with the male thread supplied with the water supply kit to the shutoff valve (or pressure limiting valve, if fitted), and tighten.

NOTE: PTFE tape should be used for a water tight seal when assembling all the above fittings.

Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the side of the cupboard as close to the wall as possible.

Make sure there is sufficient length of tubing [approximately 240 cm coiled into 3 turns of approximately 25 cm] to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.

Insert and push the end of the tubing into the fitting as far as possible.

With the free end of the tubing located in a suitable container, turn the main water supply On and flush out the tubing until the water is clear.

Turn Off the shutoff valve after approximately 1 litre of water has been flushed through the tubing.

Connecting the Tubing to the Refrigerator

Before making the connection to the refrigerator, be sure the power is turned OFF and the power cord is disconnected from the Power Outlet.

If your refrigerator does not include a water filter, we recommend installing one in the water line near the refrigerator if your water supply has sand or particles that could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve.

Remove the refrigerator access cover.

Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water valve (refrigerator connection).

Attach the fitting with the female thread supplied with the water supply kit to the water valve and tighten.

Insert and push the end of the tubing into the fitting as far as possible.

Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided to hold it in position. You may need to pry open the clamp.
