Attaching

the ice maker

to a water

supply

Read all directions

carefully

before

you begin.

Electrical

Shock Hazard

Disconnect

electrical

supply

to refrigerator

before installing.

Electrical

drill must be grounded

before

drilling

holes in water line.

Failure to do so can result in death, electrical

shock, or serious

injury.

IMPORTANT:

Use copper tubing only and check for leaks.

Install ice maker tubing in areas where temperatures

are above freezing.

Tools

required:

Standard screwdriver

%e-inch and %-inch open-end wrenches or

two adjustable wrenches

'h-inch nut driver

X-inch drill bit

Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)

NOTE: Your appliance dealer has a kit available with

a X-inch 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 piercing type or %6-inch saddle valve

which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

Cold water

supply

The ice maker water valve contains

flow washer

which is used as

water pressure regulator. The ice

maker needs to be connected to a cold water line with

water pressure limitations of 20-l 20 psi. If

problem

occurs, call your utility company.

IMPORTANT:

It may take up to 24 hours for your ice maker to

begin producing ice.

If operating the refrigerator before installing the

water connection, turn ice maker to the OFF position

to prevent operation without water.

All installations

must be in accordance with local

plumbing code requirements.

INSTALLATION

IS NOT WARRANTED

BY REFRIGERATOR

OR ICE MAKER

MANUFACTURER.

Connecting

to water

line

Find a %-inch to 1 X-inch vertical COLD water pipe

near the refrigerator.

NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the following

precaution must be taken: Drill on the top side of the

pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away

from the drill. This also keeps normal sediment from

collecting in the valve.

2. Measure from connection

on rear of refrigerator to

water pipe. Add 7 feet (2.1 m) to allow for moving

refrigerator for cleaning. This is the length of X-inch

O.D. copper tubing you will need for the job (length

from connection to water pipe PLUS 7 feet [2.1 ml).

Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.

3. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest

faucet long enough to clear line of water.

4. Using a grounded drill, drill a X-inch hole on the cold

water pipe you have selected.
