STEP 10 INSTALL WATER LINE
SmartConnect ™ Refrigerator Tubing Kits are available in
the following lengths:
6' (1.8 m)
– WX08X10006
STEP 11 CONNECT WATER SUPPLY
A cold water supply is required for automatic ice maker
operation. If there is not a cold water supply, you will need
to provide one. See Installing the Water Line section.
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 one 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. If using SmartConnect ™
Refrigerator Tubing Kit, you will need an additional
tube (WX08X10002) to connect the filter. Do not cut
plastic tube to install filter.
• Before connecting the water line to the house, purge
the house line for at least 2 minutes.
A. If you are using copper tubing, place a compression
nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of the tubing
coming from the house cold water supply.
If you are using the SmartConnect ™ tubing, the nuts
are already assembled to the tubing.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Attach tubing clamp using existing hole only. DO NOT
drill into the refrigerator.

B. If you are using copper tubing, insert the end of the
tubing into the refrigerator connection, at the back of
the refrigerator, as far as possible. While holding the
tubing, tighten the fitting.
If you are using SmartConnect ™ tubing, insert
the molded end of the tubing into the refrigerator
connection, at the back of the refrigerator, and
tighten the compression nut until it is hand tight.
Then tighten one additional turn with a wrench. Over
tightening may cause leaks.
C. Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided to hold it
in position. You may need to pry open the clamp.
D. Turn on the water at the shut-off valve to check
for leaks.
