rTl SHUT OFF MAIN WATER SUPPLY
D DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
Choose a location for the valve that is easily
accessible,
It is best to connect
into the side of a
vertical water
pipe, When it is necessary
to connect
into a horizontal
water
pipe, make the connection
to
the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid
drawing
off any sediment
from the water pipe,
Drill (_ 1/4" hole in the water
pipe (even if using (_ self-
piercing valve) using a sharp bit, Remove any burrs
resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe, Take care
not to allow water
to drain into the drill. Failure to
drill a 1/4" hole may result in reduced ice production
or smaller cubes,

NOTES:
, Before making the connection
to the refrigerator,
be sure the refrigerator
power cord is not plugged
into the wall outlet,
If your refrigerator
does not have a water filter, we
recommend
installing
one if your water supply has
sand or particles that could clog the screen of the
refrigerator's
water valve, Install it in the water
line
near the refrigerator,
If using a GE SmartConnect
TM
Refrigerator
Tubing kit, you will need an additional
tube (WXOSXIO002) to connect
the filter, Do not cut
plastic tube to install filter,
