3.
Use a 5A6in. hex-head socket wrench to adjust the leveling
screws. Turn the leveling screw to the right to raise that side
of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower
that side. It may take several turns of the leveling screws to
adjust the tilt of the refrigerator (see Graphic 8).
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws and
rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.
4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they
close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly
more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling screws the same amount.
5.
Replace the base grille.
NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille.
Read all directions
carefully before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
•
If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected,
turn the ice maker OFE
•
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
•
Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing
only in areas where temperatures
will remain above freezing.
Tools required: Standard screwdriver, 7/_e in. and V2in. open-end
wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, 1/4in. nut driver and drill
bit, hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded).
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a 1/4in.
(6.35 mm) saddle-type
shut-off valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type
valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type
or 3/_e in.
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Cold water supply
Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure
between 30 and 120 psi. If you have questions about your water
pressure, call your utility company.
Connecting to water line:
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect
power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3.
Locate a 1/2in. to 11/4in. (12.7 mm to 3.18 cm) vertical COLD
water pipe near the refrigerator.
NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of
the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4.
Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure
from the connection on the lower left rear of refrigerator to the
water pipe. Add 7 ft. (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/4in.
(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure
both ends of copper tubing are cut square.
5.
Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4in. hole in the cold water pipe
you have selected.

6.
Fasten the shut-off valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4in. drilled hole
in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp.
Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws
carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do
not overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.
7. Slip the compression
sleeve and compression
nut on the
copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the
outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression
nut
onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.
8.
Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and
turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is
clear. Turn OFF the shut-off valve on the water pipe. Coil the
copper tubing.
Connecting to refrigerator:
1. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression
nut. Do
not overtighten. Use the tube clamp on the back of the
refrigerator to secure the tubing to the refrigerator as shown.
This will help prevent damage to the tubing when the
refrigerator is pushed back against the wall.
2. Turn shut-off valve ON. Check for leaks. Tighten any
connections
(including connections at the valve) or nuts
that leak.

3. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If
your water conditions
require a second water strainer, install
it in the 1/4in. (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection.
Obtain a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
4.
Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
