Connect the Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT: If you turn on the refrigerator before the water line is
connected, turn off the ice maker to avoid excessive noise or
damage to the water valve.
Connect to Water Line
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn Off main water supply. Turn On nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3. Locate a 1/2" to 1 1/4" (1.27 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
� Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
� Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4. Determine the length of copper or PEX tubing you will need.
Measure from the connection on lower-left rear of refrigerator
to the water pipe. Add 7 ft. (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use 1/
4" (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper or PEX tubing.
Be sure both ends of copper or PEX tubing are cut square.
5. Using a cordless drill, drill a 1/4" hole in the cold water pipe
you have selected.
A. Cold water pipe
B. Pipe clamp
C. Copper or PEX
tubing
D. Compression nut
E. Compression sleeve
F. Shutoff valve
G. Packing nut
6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4" (6.35 mm)
drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the
pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp
screws slowly and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal.
Do not overtighten or you may crush the copper or PEX
tubing.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the
copper or PEX tubing as shown (PEX tubing has compression
sleeves and compression nuts preinstalled.) Insert the end of
the tubing into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go.
Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable
wrench. Do not overtighten.
8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and turn
On the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear.
Turn Off the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper or
PEX tubing.
Connect to Refrigerator
NOTE: On kit models, assemble water valve to refrigerator
according to kit instructions.
Style 1
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten.
3. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure
the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid
damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back
against the wall.
4. Turn On shutoff valve.
5. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including
connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
A. Tube clamp
B. Tube clamp screw
C. Copper or PEX
tubing
D. Compression nut
E. Valve inlet
6. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If your
water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in
the 1/4“ (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain
a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
NOTE: On kit models, assemble water valve to refrigerator
according to kit instructions.
Style 2
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the product and
insert the copper or PEX tubing through the clamp as shown.
3. Attach the copper or PEX tube to the valve inlet using a
compression nut and sleeve as shown.
4. Tighten the compression nut. Do not overtighten. Reattach the
tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet.
A. Tube clamp
B. Copper or PEX
tubing
C. Compression nut
5. Turn On shutoff valve. Check for leaks. Tighten any
connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that
leak.
6. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If your
water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in
the 1/4" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain
a water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
