Water Supply Requirements

A cold water supply with water pressure
between 147 kPa and 834 kPa (1.5-8.5 kgf/
cm²) is requried to operate the water dispenser.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with
low water pressure (below 147 kPa), you can
install a booster pump to compensate for the low
pressure.
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, the water
pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs
to be a minimum of 147 kPa to 834 kPa (1.5-8.5
kgf/cm²)
WARNING
• Unplug the appliance before carrying out any
work on connecting the water line. Failure to do
so may cause electric shock.
• Only connect the water line to a cold water
supply. Failure to do so may cause the water
filter to malfuction. Water hammer (water
banging in the pipes) in house plumbing can
cause damage to appliance parts and can lead
to water leakage or flooding.
• Connecting the water line must only be
installed by a qualified plumber and in
accordance with local legislation and
regulations governing water quality.
NOTE
• This water line installation is not covered by the
appliance warranty.

Unscrew the metal threaded collar nut at the
back of the appliance and place it over one
end of the water tube.
Firmly push the water tube onto the water
inlet valve and tighten up the collar nut.
Unscrew the threaded connector and
place it over the end of the cut section of
pipe coming from the appliance. Push the
pipe over the end of the filter that the flow
arrow points to and tighten up the threaded
connector.
Repeat the same process on the other end
of the filter using the remainder of the water
tube.
