11.Reattach the refrigerator and freezer doors by reversing the order of the steps 10 to 3.

Reattaching the water supply lines:

. The water supply line

must be fully inserted to the marked line to

prevent water leakage from the dispenser.

NOTE: The water supply lines are color-coordinated, so the line color should

always match. One supplies the icemaker and the other supplies the water dispenser.

2.Insert the 2 clips and check that each clip holds the line firmly.

3.Install the front leg cover (2) and secure with 3 screws.

A water dispenser is one of the helpful features on your new Kenmore Elite TM Side-By-Side Refrigerator. To help promote better health, the water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that.

In order for the icemaker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20~125 psi (pounds per square inch) is required.

Under normal conditions, a 170-cc (5.75-oz.) cup can be filled in 10 seconds.

If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20 psi), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

Make sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until the water runs from the water outlet.

NOTE: Water line installation kits are available at extra

cost from your dealer. We recommend using a water supply kit that contains copper tubing.

CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY LINE

1.Shut off the main water supply line and make sure the icemaker is turned off.

2.Locate the nearest cold water line (1).

NOTE: Only connect to a drinkable cold water source.

3.Install pipe clamp (2) on cold water line (1).

4.Cover threads of shut-off valve (4) with pipe thread tape or compound; then thread into pipe clamp (2) and cold water line (1).
