CONNECTING THE WATER LINE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used

drinking water line.

CAUTION

Only connect to the potable water provision.

1. SHUTOFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY

Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on

the line.

5. TIGHTEN THE PIPE CLAMP

Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer begins to swell.

NOTE: Do not overtighten or you may crush

the tubing.

2. CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION

Choose a location for the valve that

is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe.

When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the

connection to the top or side, eather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.

6. ROUTE THE TUBING

Route the tubing between the cold water line and the refrigerator.

Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the wall or floor (behind the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet) as close to the wall as possible.

3. DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE

Drill a 1/4” (6.35 mm) hole in the water pipe (even if using a self-

piercing valve) using a

sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe. Take care not to allow water to drain

into the drill. Failure to drill a 1/4” (6.35 mm) hole

may result in reduced ice production or smaller cubes.

NOTE: The hookup line cannot be white, plastic tubing NDA tubing #49595 or 49499 or Cross Link Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.

4. FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE

Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.

NOTE: Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing [about 8 feet (244 mm) coiled into 3 turns of about 10”

(25 cm) diameter] to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.

7. CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE VALVE

Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for copper tubing onto the end of the tubing and connect it to the shutoff valve. Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve. Tighten the compression. nut securely.
