Connecting The Water SuppJy
ABOUTYOUR WATIIE,IIIRSUIIIDIIII:::>LY
[] [] [] m [] [] [] [] m [] [] m m m [] [] [] m m [] []
The automatic ice & water dispenser on your refrigerator requires a permanent
water supply to function correctly. During installation, you (or a service
professional) establish this water supply by connecting a copper tube from your
household water system to a valve at the rear of the refrigerator.
You may have already followed the directions in the Installation Instructions to
connect the water supply. This information is repeated here for future reference if
you need to relocate your refrigerator.
What you will need:
• Access to a cold water line with pressure of 20z100 psi.
• Copper tubing with %dnch (6.4mm) OD. Length for this tubing is the distance
from the rear of the refrigerator to your household water supply line plus 7
feet (2.1 meters).
• A shut_off valve for the connection between your household water line and
the refrigerator supply line.
Do not use a self-piercing shut-off valve.
• A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for the water supply connection at the
rear of your refrigerator.

Connecting The Water Supply
Toconnect the water supply to the rear of your refrigerator:
1 Ensure that the refrigerator is not plugged in.
2 Flush the supply line until water is clear by placing the end of the copper tube
in a sink or bucket and opening the shut=off valve.
3 Unscrew the plastic cap from the water valve inlet at
the rear of your refrigerator. Discard the cap.
4 Slide the brass compression nut, then the ferrule
(sleeve) onto copper tube.
5 Push the copper tube into water valve inlet as far as it
will go (1/4 inch).
6 Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into valve and finger=tighten
the compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half
turn with a wrench. Do not over=tighten,
7 Secure the copper tube to your refrigerator's rear panel
with a steel clamp and screw (see illustration).
8 Coil the excess copper tubing (about 2½ turns) behind
your refrigerator as shown. Arrange coiled tubing to
avoid vibration or wear against other surfaces.
9 Open water supply shut=off valve and tighten any
connections that leak.
