Connect Ice Maker Water Supply Line
(some models)
!WARNING
To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, disconnect power to refrigerator before connecting water supply. After connecting water supply, connect power.
!CAUTION
Observe the following to avoid property damage:
•Make sure water pressure to water valve is between 20 and 100 pounds per square inch.
•Tighten adapter fitting and nuts with pliers and wrenches. Do not overtighten.
•Check for water leaks and correct if necessary before returning refrigerator to normal location. After 24 hours check again for leaks.
Important
•Before connecting water supply, contact a plumber to connect copper tubing to household plumbing in compliance with local codes and ordinances.
•Amana does not recommend using a self-piercing, or
3/16" saddle valves! Both reduce water flow, become plugged with sediment over time and may cause leaks if repair is attempted. The correct type of shut-off valve
requires a 1/4" hole to be drilled in the water supply pipe prior to valve attachment. Amana is not responsible for property damage caused by improper water connection.
Materials Required
1/4" O.D. (6 mm) flexible copper tubing is required. Length of copper tubing must reach from water supply connection to water valve inlet port on back of refrigerator, plus additional 8'(2 m) of tubing for a service

•After ice is formed, ice maker drops ice cubes into ice storage bucket. During ice production, ice maker arm
raises and lowers. When ice storage bucket is full, ice maker arm turns ice maker off.
Note: Discard first 3 harvests of ice so any impurities left in the water line after installation are not consumed.
