INSTALLATION

Water Connection For IceMaker Models Only - Figure 11

!WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD!

Disconnect the water supply before connecting the water lines for the IceMaker. Make sure the refrigerator is not plugged in and there is no electric power going to the refrigerator.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury.

The water pressure must be between 21.8-87.0 psi (1.5-6 bar).

Use a 1/4 in. OD copper line to connect the water supply to the solenoid valve. This is not supplied with the refrigerator (Figure 11).

A shut-off valve, such as the saddle valve illustrated here, must be installed between the hose line and the main water supply so the water supply can be stopped if necessary.

Do not install the shut-off valve behind the refrigeration unit.

Connection to the Water Supply -

Figures 12, 13

1.Install the shut-off valve, water filter and automatic shut-off device as required.

Note

The solenoid valve is located at the rear of your refrigerator-freezer.

2.The 1/4 in. copper tubing between the shut- off valve and solenoid valve has a 3/4 in. male connector (Fig. 13, 2). Make sure there is approximately 30 in. (70 cm) of excess tubing behind the refrigerator-freezer for easy connection.

Note

A 3/4 in. to a 1/4 in. adapter and cable clip are supplied with the IceMaker.

3.Remove the cover cap (Fig. 13, 4) from the solenoid valve (Fig. 13, 1). Install the brass adapter (Fig. 13, 2) with sealing ring (Fig. 13, 6) on the solenoid valve (Fig. 13, 1). Attach the copper tube to the brass adapter (Fig. 13, 2). Secure the copper tube (Fig. 13, 3) to the appliance using the cable clip (Fig. 13, 5).

4.Open the shut-off valve for the water supply and check the entire water system for leaks. Before the appliance is used for the first time, a licensed plumber should bleed air from the system.

5.Insert the electrical plug for the appliance into the electrical outlet (Figure 12).

6.Move the combined refrigerator-freezer into final position in the cabinet.

install a water softener. Also, a fi lter must be

 

installed if the water contains solids such as

 

sand.
