Water Supply Requirements

(on some models)

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed

here.

TOOLS NEEDED:

Flat-blade screwdriver

⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" Open-end or two

adjustable wrenches

NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄₄"

(6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff 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 ³⁄₁₆"

(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more

easily.

IMPORTANT:

All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.

Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing

only in areas where the household temperatures will remain

above freezing.

Water Pressure

A potable cold water supply with water pressure of between

30 and 87 psi (207 and 600 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 87 psi (207 and 600 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 your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the

water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse

osmosis system. Remove the water filter. See "Water Filtration

System."

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,

qualified plumber.

¹⁄₄" Drill bit

Cordless drill

Connect Water Supply

(on some models)

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the

International Plumbing Code and any local codes and

ordinances.

The gray water tubing on the back of the refrigerator (which is

used to connect to the household water line) is a PEX

(cross-linked polyethylene) tube. Copper and PEX tubing

connections from the household water line to the refrigerator

are acceptable, and will help avoid off-taste or odor in your ice

or water. Check for leaks.

If PEX tubing is used instead of copper, we recommend the

following Whirlpool Part Numbers:

W10505928RP (7 ft [2.14 m] jacketed PEX),

8212547RP (5 ft [1.52 m] PEX), or

W10267701RP (25 ft [7.62 m] PEX).

Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain

above freezing.

For Australia and New Zealand: If water pressure exceeds

599 kPa (87 psi), a pressure-limiting device must be fitted by a

licensed plumber.

Tools needed:

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

Flat-blade screwdriver

⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable

wrenches

¹⁄₄" nut driver

Connect to Water Line

IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is

connected, turn the ice maker OFF.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long

enough to clear line of water.

3. Use a quarter-turn shutoff valve or the equivalent, served by a

¹⁄₂" copper household supply line.

NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the refrigerator, a

minimum ¹⁄₂" size copper household supply line is

recommended.

A. Bulb

C. Copper tubing (to refrigerator)

B. Nut

D. Household supply line (½" minimum)
