FLUSH OUT THE TUBING
Turn the main water supply on and flush out the
tubing until the water is clear.
Shut the water off at the water valve after about
one quart (1 liter) of water has been flushed
through the tubing.

CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE
REFRIGERATOR
NOTES:
• Before making the connection to the refrigerator,
be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged
into the wall outlet.
• If your refrigerator does not have a water filter,
we recommend installing a water filter if your
water supply has sand or particles that could clog
the screen of the refrigerator's water valve. Install
it in the water line near the refrigerator.
