5. Using a cordless drill, drill a 1/4" (6.35 mm) 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 is supplied with
the compression sleeve and nut installed.) 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 Freezer
1. 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.
A. Tube clamp
B. Tube clamp screw
C. Copper or PEX tubing
D. Compression nut
E. Valve inlet
2. Use the tube clamp on the back of the freezer to fasten the
tubing to the freezer as shown. This will help avoid damage to
the tubing when the freezer is pushed back against the wall.
3. Turn shutoff valve on.
4. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including
connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
5. 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.
