STEP 9 REPLACE REFRIGERATOR
DOORS
Reverse steps 1 through 4 to reinstall refrigerator,
follow details below for critical alignments.
A. Reinstall center hinge first and
torque the inner, larger 8mm hex
head screws to 65 in-lbs (7.34
N-m) and small screw to 25
in-lbs (2.82 N-m). Rotating the
screw by 1/3 turn after it is flush
with mating surface will achieve
these torques.
B. If the hinge on your refrigerator has
a slot that looks like image B on
the right, follow the steps below.
Otherwise, skip to step C.
With the LH door at 90º + to the front of the
case, lower the refrigerator door. Ensure
the door and hinge align correctly. Rotate door closed
and make sure moveable center sealing portion of the
door aligns with the striker. If door cannot be installed at
90º, follow these next steps. Install door at 90º to case
front. If space or model limits opening door to less than
180º, remove door and carefully turn door upside down.
Check alignment of the door. There is an alignment mark
on the door closure mechanism that corresponds to an
alignment mark on the bottom end cap. Rotate door
closure mechanism to align mark and arrow.
C. If the hinge on your refrigerator does not have
a slot and looks like image C on the right, then
simply lower the outer hole of the door on the hinge

STEP 10 INSTALL WATER LINE

Recommended copper water supply kits are WX8X2,
WX8X3 or WX8X4, depending on the amount of tubing
B you need. Approved plastic water supply lines are
SmartConnect ™ Refrigerator Tubing (WX08X10006,
WX08X10015 and WX08X10025).
When connecting your refrigerator to a Reverse Osmosis
Water System, the only approved installation is with a
GE Appliances RVKit. For other reverse osmosis water
systems, follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
If the water supply to the refrigerator is from a Reverse
Osmosis Water Filtration System (RO)AND the
refrigerator also has a water filter, use the refrigerator's
filter bypass plug. Using the refrigerator's water filtration
cartridge in conjunction with an RO water filter can
result in hollow ice cubes. Some models do not come
equipped with the filter bypass plug. To obtain a free
bypass plug, call 800-GECARES. In Canada call
888.880.3030.
This water line installation is not warranted by the
refrigerator or ice maker manufacturer. Follow these
instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive
water damage.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in house
plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and
lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualified
plumber to correct water hammer before installing the
water supply line to the refrigerator.
To prevent burns and product damage, do not hook up
the water line to the hot water line.
Do not install the ice maker tubing in areas where
temperatures fall below freezing.
When using any electrical device (such as a power
drill) during installation, be sure the device is double
insulated or grounded in a manner to prevent the
hazard of electric shock, or is battery powered.
All installations must be in accordance with local
plumbing code requirements.
• Copper or SmartConnect ™ Refrigerator Tubing kit,
1/4" outer diameter to connect the refrigerator to the
water supply. If using copper, be sure both ends of
the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much tubing you need:
measure the distance from the water valve on the back
of the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Be sure
there is sufficient extra tubing to allow the refrigerator to
move out from the wall after installation.
