Connecting to refrigerator:

1.Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not overtighten. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help prevent damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back against the wall. Move to step 2.

2.Turn shut-off valve ON. Check For Leaks. Tighten any

connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has 2 front adjustable rollers -- one on

the right and one on the left. tf your refrigerator seems unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust the

refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:

1.Plug in refrigerator.

2.Move the refrigerator into its final position.

3.Remove the base grille (see "Base Grille" earlier in this section). The two leveling screws are part of the front roller assemblies which are at the base of the refrigerator on either side.

4.Use a screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws. Turn

the leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that side. It may take several turns of the leveling screws to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws

and rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.

3.The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If local water conditions require periodic cleaning or a well is your source of water supply, a second water strainer should be installed in the 1/4-inch water line.

Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer. Install at either tube connection.

4.Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

5. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling screws the same amount.

6. Replace the base grille.

To remove the base grille:

1.Open both refrigerator doors.

2.Place hands along the ends of the grille, with your thumbs along the top. Push in with your thumbs and

pull up on the bottom.

NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille after cleaning.
