THE INSTALLATION SPACE

Water and Electrical Locations
Electrical and water supply should be located in shaded area only as shown.
PREPARING INSTALL WATER LINE
• A cold water supply is required
for automatic icemaker operation. The water pressure must be
between 40 and 120 p.s.i.
• Route 1/4" OD copper or GE SmartConnect
the house cold water line and the water connection location.
• Tubing should be long enough to extend to the front of the
encloasure.
• Water line can enter an opening through the floor or back wall.
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water valve and cold
water supply in the home.
NOTE:
• It is recommended that the water shut-off valve be placed in a
location that is easily accessible. We do not advise placing it behind
the unit because of access difficulties. If it is necessary to install the
valve behind the unit, it must be located in the shaded area.
• Saddle type shut-off valves are included in many water supply kits, but are
not recommended for this application.
• The only GE-approved plastic tubing is supplied in the GE
SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any other plastic water supply line because the line is under
™
pressure at all times. Other types of plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause water damage to your home. GE
SmartConnect Refrigerator Tubing Kits are available in the following lengths:
™
6' (1.8 m) WX08X10006, 15' (4.6 m) WX08X10015 & 25' (7.6 m) WX08X10025
• Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and use is not
permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.
Electrical Specifications
• A 115-volt, 60-Hz., 15- or 20-amp power supply is required. An individual properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended.
