Connecting to the water supply line

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 fi lled. 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.
