Installation Instructions

Connecting the water valve tubing
Refer to the diagram below for the following steps.
1. Refer to the inset in DETAIL A and pull the plastic insert out of
the ll tube spout and discard it.
2. Locate the water valve tubing clamp (from the ice maker kit),
and note that one of the anges is made for a threaded screw
and the other side has a round hole. Position this clamp
with the round hole side facing up, and slide it over the end
of the spout (see DETAILS A, B). Thread a 1/2" hex-head
sheet metal screw into the clamp with your ngers as far as
possible. You will tighten the screw later.
3. Refer to DETAIL A, and position the metal water tube insert
as shown, then press it all the way into the water valve
tubing.
4. Refer to DETAIL B, and slide the end of the tubing into the
end of the ll tube spout as far as it will go (if the tubing does
not reach, pull as much as necessary up through the clips),
then tighten the tubing clamp screw as much as possible.
Pull on the tubing to make sure that it is secure. If it slides
out of the spout, push it back in, and tighten the clamp screw
further until the tubing is secure.
5. Press the tubing into the two clips (see DETAIL C) you
installed earlier on the back of the cabinet. You will connect
the free end of the tubing later.
6. Pull any excess tubing near the ll tube down through the two
clamps so it forms a straight line with a loop at the bottom of
the water valve.
