Installation

STEP 6 Connect the water dispenser line

A water dispenser with a lter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To

help promote better health, the water lter removes unwanted particles from your water.

However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a

water purifying system to do that.

The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly,

water pressure of 20-125 psi (138-862 kPa) is required.

If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20 psi (138 kPa)),

you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

After you have connected the water line, make sure the water storage tank inside the

refrigerator is properly lled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until water runs

from the water outlet.

NOTE

• Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We

recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a

/4"

(6 mm) compression nut.

• Use the new hose-sets supplied with the appliance only. Do not re-use an old hose set.

WARNING

• Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear

of obstruction.

• Connect to potable water supply only.

1. Shut off the main water source.

2. Insert the pipe clamp (B) and the

shutoff valve (C) into the cold water

line (A).

3. Connect the water line installation kit

(A) to the shutoff valve (B).
