WATER SUPPLY
A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 120 psi is required to operate the icemaker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.
REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER SUPPLY
IMPORTANT: The performance of the icemaker
may be affected when it is connected to a reverse osmosis system.
• The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the icemaker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi.
• 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. The reverse osmosis system must provide 1 gal. of water per hour to the icemaker for proper icemaker operation.
• Do not use copper tubing when the icemaker is connected to a reverse osmosis water system.
Choose the location:
• Not designed for outdoor installation.
• The icemaker must be installed in an area protected from elements such as wind, rain, water spray or drip. The area should be ven ti lat ed with temperatures above 55°F (13°C) and below 110°F (43°C). Best results are obtained between 70°F (21°C) and 90°F (32°C).
• The icemaker may be closed in on the top and three sides as long as the front is un ob struct ed for air circulation and proper op er a tion. –Installation should be such that the icemaker
can be moved forward for ser vic ing, if necessary.
–The bottom grille on the front must be
unobstructed to provide proper air flow.
ADVANCE PLANNING (cont.)
Before you begin:
1. If a custom panel is to be installed, follow
the instructions shown on pages 10 and 11. –Order ZIP75 (black) panel kit. –Order the custom panel from the cabinet
manufacturer.
–Secure the custom panel onto the icemaker.
2. Determine a method of drainage. If a floor drain
is to be installed, the drain must be accurately located. The installation of a custom door panel will affect the drain location. See page 7 to determine the exact location of the floor drain, front to back, with or without a custom door panel. –A drain pump kit, ZPK1, is available and will not
interfere with placement of the icemaker.
3. The door swing is reversible. If desired, change
the door swing before installation.
4. Slide the icemaker into the installation location.
–Open and close the door to be sure there is no
interference.
–Check to be sure the icemaker can be moved
back into the opening, flush with adjacent cabinetry. There should be no interference with the floor drain.
–Check to be sure the icemaker is level. The
icemaker will not operate properly if it is not level. See page 6.

WATER SUPPLY

• A cold water supply is required for icemaker operation. The water pressure must be between 30 and 120 p.s.i.
• Route GE SmartConnect
Kit or 1/4" O.D. copper tubing between house cold water line and the water connection location.
• The water line should be long enough to extend to the back of the icemaker. Allow enough to accommodate moving unit forward for service.
NOTE: The only GE approved plastic tubing is supplied in the GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any other plastic water supply line because the line is under pressure at all times. Other types of plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause water damage to your home. GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator
Tubing Kits are available in the following lengths: 2' (0.6 m) WX08X10002 15' (4.6 m) WX08X10015
6' (1.8 m) WX08X10006 25' (7.6 m) WX08X10025
Shut off the main water supply
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.
Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet. The installation of an easily accessible shut-off valve in the water line is required.
NOTE: It is best to install the valve into a vertical water pipe. If you install the valve into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection at the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.
• Turn on the main water supply and flush debris from
the line. Run about a quart of water through the tubing into a bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off valve.
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are in clud ed in many water supply kits, but are not recommended for this application.
• Install optional water filter in the water line near
the icemaker. A water filter is rec om mend ed in areas where water supply contains sand or particles. Installation instructions are packed with the filter.
CONNECT DRAIN
This icemaker is equipped with a gravity drain to prevent water from flowing back into the storage bin and overflowing onto the floor. The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 2" to 1-1/2" PVC drain reducer installed directly below the drain tube:
–A 1" min. physical gap
between the bottom of the icemaker drain hose and the top of the house drain is required. See illustration.
–7-1/2" to centerline
of the opening. –Approximately 3-1/2" high. –22" from the front, or
22-3/4" when installing a 3/4" door panel.
• Drain lines must be at least 5/8" inside diameter. NOTE: A drain pump is necessary when a floor
drain is not available. Order ZPK1 Drain Pump Kit or contact your local plumber for a recommended pump available in your area.
TEST DRAIN HOSE ALIGNMENT: Before sliding the icemaker into the cabinet opening, check to be sure the bottom of the drain tube is below the rear cover. To test, place a pan below the drain hose. Pour a gallon of water into the ice bin and check to be sure that water does not wet the rear cover.
