INSTALLing the WATER DISPENSER line

A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful features on your new 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 ice maker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20~125psi ( 138~862kPa) is required.

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

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

After you have connected the water line, 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.

Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your dealer.

We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and ¼” compression nut.
