INSTALLATION

Connecting the Water Supply

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury or death, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Read all instructions before installing ice maker.

•Do not attempt installation if instructions are not understood or if they are beyond personal skill level.

•Observe all local codes and ordinances.

•Do not service ice maker unless specifically recommended in Use & Care Guide or published user-repair instructions.

•Disconnect power to refrigerator before installing ice maker.

•Water damage due to an improper water connection may cause mold/mildew growth. Clean up spills or leakage immediately!

CAUTION

To avoid property damage or possible injury, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Consult a plumber to connect 1⁄4” O.D. copper tubing to household plumbing to assure compliance with local codes and ordinances.

•Confirm water pressure to water valve is between 35 and 100 pounds per square inch, 20 pounds per square inch without filter.

•Do not use a self-piercing, or 3⁄16” saddle valve. Both reduce water flow and can become clogged over 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 two to three hours before placing refrigerator into final position to check and correct any water leaks. Recheck for leaks after 24 hours.

•Verify the copper tubing under the sleeve is smooth and free from defects. Do not reuse an old sleeve.

Materials Needed:

•1⁄4” outer diameter flexible copper tubing

•Shut-off valve (requires a 1⁄4” hole to be drilled into water supply line before valve attachment)

•Adjustable wrench

•1⁄4” hex nut driver

Notes

•Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is less durable and can cause damage.

•Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water supply for creation of service loop.

1. Create service loop with copper

2’ diameter

minimum

tubing (minimum 2’ diameter).

 

Avoid kinks in the copper tubing

 

when bending it into a service

 

loop. Do not use plastic tubing.

 

2.Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port.

3. Place brass nut (A) and sleeve (B)

on copper tube end as illustrated.

 

 

Reminder: Do not use an old

 

 

sleeve. The nut and sleeve are

 

 

provided in the use and care packet.

 

 

4.Place end of copper tubing into water valve inlet port. Shape tubing slightly. Do not kink – so that tubing feeds straight into inlet port.

5.Slide brass nut over sleeve and screw nut into inlet port. Tighten nut with wrench.

IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten. Cross threading may occur.

6. Pull on tubing to confirm connection is

secure. Connect tubing to frame with

 

water tubing clamp (C) and turn on

 

water supply. Check for leaks and

 

correct if necessary. Continue to

 

observe the water supply connection

 

for two to three hours prior to moving

 

the refrigerator to its permanent

 

location.

 

7.Monitor water connection for 24 hours. Correct leaks, if necessary.
