Water Supply Requirements

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

When your refrigerator was installed, the water connection
from the water source should have been connected to your
refrigerator. If your refrigerator is not connected to a water
source, see "Connect to Water Line" in the Installation
Instructions. If you have any questions about your water
connection, see "Troubleshooting" or call a licensed, qualified
plumber.
If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF. See "Ice Maker and
Storage Bin."
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Water Pressure
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 120 psi
(207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and
ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, see
"Troubleshooting" or call a licensed, qualified plumber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a
reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the
refrigerator needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and
827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 psi (276 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40 psi (276 kPa):
Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse
osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill
after heavy usage.
If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the
water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse
osmosis system. Remove the water filter. See "Water
Filtration System."
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.

Water System Preparation

Please read before using the water system.
Immediately after installation, follow the steps below to make
sure that the water system is properly cleaned.
A
1. Open the freezer door and turn off the ice maker. For Style 1,
lift up the wire shutoff arm as shown. For Style 2, move the
switch to the OFF (right) setting as shown. The On/Off switch
is located on the top right side of the freezer compartment.
Style 1 – Non-Dispenser Models
Style 2 – Dispenser Models
NOTE: If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the
base grille filter is properly installed and the cap is in the
horizontal position.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
2. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water
dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds.
Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow,
continue depressing and releasing the dispenser lever
(5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an additional 2 minutes.
This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out
of the dispenser.
3. Open the freezer door and turn on the ice maker. For Style 1,
lower the wire shutoff arm. For Style 2, move the switch to
the ON (left) position.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.
Discard the first three batches of ice produced.
Depending on your model, you may want to select the
maximum ice feature to increase the production of ice.
