Feed water pipe installation

Pass the refrigerator laterally through the access door as shown in the right figure.



Automatic ice maker operation needs water pressure of 147~834 kPa (1.5~8.5 kgf/cm2) (That is, an instant paper cup (180 cc) will be fully filled within 3 sec.).



If water pressure does not reach the rating 147 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2) or below, it is necessary to purchase a separate pressure pump for normal automatic icing and cool water feed.



Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 8 m and be careful for the tube not be bent. If the tube is 8 m or longer it may cause trouble in water feed owing to the drain water pressure.



Install the feed water pipe tube at a place free from heat.



Connect to potable water supply only.
