Installation

Connect the Tubing to Water Line

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Turn off the main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the line. It may help to open an outside faucet to allow the water to drain from the line in the house.

3.Find a 1/2-inch to 1-1/4-inch vertical COLD water pipe near the refrigerator.

NOTE

Horizontal pipe will work, but the following precaution must be taken: Drill on the top of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.

4.To determine the length of copper tubing you will need, measure from the connection on the lower left rear of the refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1m) to allow for moving refrigerator for cleaning. Use 1/4-inch O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

5.Using a drill, drill a 1/4-inch hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

6.Fasten the shut-off valve to cold water a pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure outlet end is securely in the 1/4-inch drilled hole and the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and evenly so the washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing, especially if soft (coiled) copper tubing is used. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing.

7.Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut onto the copper tubing as shown. Insert end of the tubing into outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto the outlet end with an adjustable wrench. Do not over tighten.

8.Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn ON main water supply. Flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shut ff valve

on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing as shownColdbelWterCoilw.Pipe
