•Reinstall or adjust shelves as needed. Refrigerator shelves are installed in the shipping position. Reinstall shelves according to your individual storage needs.
Choosing the Proper Location
Water
Water supply must be easily connected for the automatic icemaker.
NOTE
•The water pressure must be 20 - 120 psi or 138 - 827 kPa or 1.4 - 8.4 kgf/cm2. If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20 psi or 138 kPa or 1.4 kgf/cm2), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.
Electricity
Use an individual, grounded outlet:115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC, 15 Amps minimum.
WARNING
•Don't use existing holes unless they are in the target area. Otherwise, the water supply and drain hose may be damaged by being crushed or kinked.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the unit must be
required, adjust the leveling legs to compensate for
NOTE
•Installing on carpeting, soft tile surfaces, a platform or weakly supported structure is not recommended.
Ambient Temperature
Install this appliance in an area where the temperature is between 55 °F (13 °C) and 110 °F (43 °C).
If the temperature around the appliance is too low or high, cooling ability may be adversely affected.

•Turn the icemaker OFF if the refrigerator will be used before the water line is connected.
•Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where the ambient temperatures fall below freezing.
WARNING
•Connect to a potable water supply only.
CAUTION
•To prevent burns and product damage, only connect the refrigerator water line to a cold water supply.
•Wear eye protection during installation toprevent injury.

•Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis
•If the water pressure remains low, call a licensed,
•All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
Supplies Needed
•Copper or PEX Tubing, ¼ in. outer diameter, to connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be sure both ends of the tubing are cut square. To determine how much tubing you need, measure the distance from the water valve on the back of the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then, add 8 feet (2.4 m).
[2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about 10 in. [25 cm] diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.
•Power drill.
•½ in. or adjustable wrench.
•Flat-blade and Phillips-head screwdrivers.
•Two ¼ in. outer diameter compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve.
•
at the end, purchase an adapter (available at plumbing supply stores) to connect the water line to the refrigerator OR cut of
•Shutoff valve to connect to the cold water line. The shutoff valve should have a water inlet with a minimum inside diameter of 5/32 in. at the point of
connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves are included in many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
NOTE
•A self-piercing saddle type water valve should not be used.
Water Line Installation Instructions
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard:
•When using any electrical device (such as a power drill) during installation, be sure the device is battery-powered, double-insulated or grounded in a manner that will prevent the hazard of electric shock.
Install the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used drinking water line.
1Shut off the main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the line.
2Choose the valve location.
Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection to the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.
INSTALLATION 19
3Drill the hole for the valve.
•Drill a ¼ in. hole in the water pipe using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe. Be careful not to allow water to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a ¼ in. hole may result in reduced ice production or smaller cubes.
NOTE
•The hookup line cannot be white, plastic tubing. Licensed plumbers must use only copper tubing (NDA tubing #49595 or #49599) or Cross Link Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.
4Fasten the shutoff valve.
Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.
