Injury Hazard
Special care should be taken at
all times to prevent refrigerator
from tipping, as it is top heavy.
A solid soffit or two, 2” x 4” x 32”
(5cmxlOcmx81cm)wood
boards to cover the width of the
compressor cover are required
above the refrigerator to prevent
tipping during use.
If solid soffit is more than 1 inch
(2.5 cm) above refrigerator, two
2” x 4” x 32” (5 cm x 10 cm x
81 cm) wood boards must be
installed on the wall l/4 inch
(6 mm) above the refrigerator
cover. The bottom surface of the
boards should be 84 inches
(213 cm) from floor. Boards must
be long enough to fully cover
width of compressor cover.
Failure to follow these
instructions could result in
injury.
The built-in refrigerator can be
installed:
l
recessed in the cabinet opening.
l
at the end of cabinets using a side
panel to enclose the refrigerator side.

Water Supply Requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
Some water may remain in line.
Electric drill must be grounded
to prevent severe or lethal
shock if water is in line and
enters drill during use.
Failure to follow this
instruction can result in death
or electrical shock.
To prevent property or product
damage:
l Use only l/4” (6 mm) copper
tubing for water line.
l Do Not install copper tubing in
area where temperatures drop
below 32°F (OOC).
l Before attaching copper tubing to
refrigerator, flush at least 2 quarts
(1.9 L) of water through the
copper tubing and into a bucket
to get rid of any particles in the
water line.
l Do Not over-tighten clamp or
sleeve. This will crush copper
tubing.
. Check for leaks around saddle
Water line to refrigerator must provide
15-l 00 psi (103-690 kPa) water pressure.
To calculate length of l/4” (6 mm)
O.D. copper tubing needed:
1. Locate a vertical l/2” (1.2 cm) to l-l /4”
(3.2 cm) COLD water line near refrigerator
area. A horizontal COLD water line can be
used if directions in Step 4 are carefully
followed.
2. Measure distance from cold water line
to refrigerator area. Add 24” (61 cm) to
this measurement.
To rough in water line:
3. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON
nearest faucet long enough to clear line of
water.
4. Vertical cold water line:
grounded electric drill or hand drill to
drill 3/l 6” (4.5 mm) hole in an easily
accessible location in water line.
Horizontal cold water line:
grounded electric drill or hand drill to
drill 3/l 6” (4.5 mm) hole in the
the water line. This will keep sediment
from collecting in valve.
5. Position washer over hole in water line.
Turn saddle valve handle clockwise to
expose piercing lance a
maximum of 3/l 6” (4.5 mm).
Align piercing lance over hole in
water line. Place both halves of
saddle valve bracket against
water line. Turn saddle valve
handle clockwise until
piercing lance enters hole
in water line and is
firmly seated. The
saddle valve is not in th
position. Tighten packing nut.
Evenly and firmly tighten bracket screws
so washer will make a water-tight
connection.
Do Not over-tighten screws;

copper tubing could be crushed.
6. Check that both ends of copper tubing
are cut square. Slide compression nut and
sleeve onto copper tubing. Insert end of
copper tubing completely into valve outlet.
Tighten compression nut to outlet with
adjustable wrench.
7. Turn on main water supply. Check for
leaks. Turn saddle valve handle
counterclockwise and run water through
copper tubinq and into a bucket. Turn
saddle valve
handle
clockwise
to shut
off water
to copper tubing.
8. Route copper tubing to refrigerator area.
9. Slide compression nut and sleeve over
the water line. Connect union to
compression nut and sleeve and
tighten.
