To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet Valve
1. Disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical power source.
2. Place the end of the water supply line into a sink or bucket.
Turn ON the water supply and flush the supply line until the
water is clear. Turn OFF the water supply at the shutoff valve.
3. Remove the plastic cap from the water valve inlet and discard
the cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide the brass compression nut,
and then the ferrule (sleeve) onto the water supply line. Push
the water supply line into the water valve inlet as far as it will
go (¼" / 6.4 mm). Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into the valve inlet
and finger tighten the compression nut onto the valve. Tighten
another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See
Figure 17.
If you use stainless steel or polyline tubing - The nut and fer-
rule are already assembled on the tubing. Slide the compres-
sion nut onto the valve inlet and finger tighten the compres-
sion nut onto the valve. Tighten another half turn with a
wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See Figure 18.

5. Connect wiring harness to water valve. Make sure connection
is tight. See Figure 19.
IMPORTANT
It takes approximately 24 hours for the ice maker to begin
producing ice. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the ice
maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full tray of ice. New
plumbing may cause ice to be discolored or have poor flavor.
Discard ice made during the first 24 hours.
6. With the steel clamp and the screw, secure the water supply line
(copper tubing only) to the rear panel of refrigerator as shown in
Figure 17.
7. Coil the excess water supply line (copper tubing only), about
2½ turns, behind refrigerator as shown in Figure 17 and the
arrange coils so they do not vibrate or wear against any other
surface.
8. Turn ON the water supply at the shutoff valve and tighten any
connections that leak.
9. Reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical power source.
10. To turn the ice maker on, lower the wire signal arm.
