refrigerator to be connected without an extension cord. See
“Electrical Requirements” for additional information.

location that allows it to be turned off without moving the
refrigerator out in the event the refrigerator or water line
requires service.

Cold water supply
Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure
between 35 and 120 psi. If you have any questions about your
water pressure, call your utility company.

Reverse osmosis water supply
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of
a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the
refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827
kPa).
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 (276 to 414 kPa).
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
■ Checktoseewhetherthesedimentfilterinthereverse
osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
■ Allowthestoragetankonthereverseosmosissystemto
refill after heavy usage.
■ Ifyourrefrigeratorhasawaterfilter,itmayfurtherreduce
the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse
osmosis system. Remove the water filter. See “Water
Filtration System.”
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.

circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet
that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension
cord.
