5. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and
turn on main water supply to flush out tubing until water is
clear. Turn off shutoff valve on the water pipe.
NOTE: Always drain the water line before making the final
connection to the inlet of the water valve, to avoid possible
water valve malfunction.
6. Bend the copper or PEX tubing to meet the water line inlet,
which is located on the back of the refrigerator cabinet. Leave
a coil of copper or PEX tubing to allow the refrigerator to be
pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.
Connect to Refrigerator
Depending on your model, the water line may come down from
the top or up from the bottom. Follow the connection instructions
for your model.
Style 1
1. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Attach the
copper or PEX tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut
and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten. Confirm copper or PEX tubing is secure by pulling
on tubing.
2. Create a service loop with the copper tubing. Avoid kinks
when coiling the tubing. Secure copper or PEX tubing to
refrigerator cabinet with a “P” clamp.
A. Copper or PEX
tubing
B. “P” clamp
C. Compression nut
D. Compression sleeve
3. Turn on water supply to refrigerator and check for leaks.
Correct any leaks.
Style 2
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the short, black plastic part from the end
of the water line inlet.
3. Thread the nut onto the end of the tubing. Tighten the nut by
hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not
overtighten.
NOTE: To avoid rattling, be sure the copper tubing does not
touch the cabinet’s side wall or other parts inside the cabinet.
A. Household water
line
B. Nut (purchased)
C. Ferrule (purchased)
D. Refrigerator water tubing
4. Install the water supply tube clamp around the water supply
line to reduce strain on the coupling.
5. Turn shutoff valve on.
6. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including
connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
7. On some models, the ice maker is equipped with a built-in
water strainer. If your water conditions require a second water
strainer, install in the 1/4ʺ (6.35 mm) water line at either tube
connection. Obtain a water strainer from your appliance
dealer.
Complete the Installation
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
1. Plug into a grounded 3–prong outlet.
NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice.
Discard the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to
completely fill the ice storage bin.
2. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”
Install Air Filter (on some models)
The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a
cleaner environment inside your refrigerator. An air filter is 15
times more powerful than baking soda at reducing common food
odors inside the refrigerator.
Your refrigerator's accessory packet includes an air filter, which
must be installed prior to use. On some models, the air filter is
already installed at the factory.
Installing the Air Filter
Depending on your model, the air filter can be installed in one of
the following ways:
Style 1–Behind Vented Door:
Install the air filter behind the vented door, located on the rear wall
near the top of the refrigerator compartment.
