A cold water supply with water pressure
of between
30 and 120 psi
(207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate
the water dispenser
and ice
maker. If you have questions
about your water pressure,
call a
licensed,
qualified
plumber.
Reverse
Osmosis
Water
Supply
IMPORTANT:
The pressure
of the water supply coming
out of a
reverse osmosis
system going to the water inlet valve of the
refrigerator
needs to be between
30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis
water filtration
system
is connected
to your cold
water supply, the water pressure
to the reverse osmosis
system
needs to be a minimum
of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system
is less than 40 to
60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
•
Check to see whether
the sediment
filter in the reverse osmosis
system
is blocked.
Replace the filter if necessary.
•
Allow the storage
tank on the reverse osmosis
system
to refill
after heavy usage.
If you have questions
about your water pressure,
call a licensed,
qualified
plumber.
Read all directions
before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn the refrigerator
on before the water line is
connected,
turn the ice maker OFE
Connect
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 V2" to 1W' (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical
cold water pipe
near the refrigerator.

•
Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
•
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.
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 1/4" (6.35 mm)
O.D. (outside diameter)
copper
tubing.
Be sure both ends of
copper
tubing are cut square.
Using a cordless
drill, drill a 1/4" hole in the cold water pipe you
have selected.

G. Packing
nut
Fasten the shutoff
valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp.
Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the V4" drilled hole in
the water pipe and that the washer
is under the pipe clamp.
Tighten the packing
nut. Tighten
the pipe clamp screws slowly
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 shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper
tubing.
Connect to Refrigerator
1.
Unplug
refrigerator
or disconnect
power.
2.
Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut
and sleeve as shown.
Tighten the compression
nut. Do not
overtighten.
3.
Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator
to secure the
tubing to the refrigerator
as shown. This will help avoid damage
to the tubing when the refrigerator
is pushed
back against
the
wall.
4.
Turn shutoff valve ON.
5.
Check for leaks. Tighten
any connections
(including
connections
at the valve) or nuts that leak.

The ice maker is equipped
with a built-in
water strainer. If your
water conditions
require a second
water strainer, install it in the
1/4" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection.
Obtain a water
strainer from your nearest appliance
dealer.
Complete the Installation
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension
cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical
shock.
1.
Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce
the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches
of ice produced.
Allow 3 days to completely
fill ice
container.
