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. Find a 1/2" to 11/4 '' (12.7 mm to 31.8 mm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
Make
sure it is a cold
water
pipe.
Horizontal
pipe
will work,
but the following
procedure
must be followed:
Drill on the top side of the pipe,
not
the bottom.
This will help keep water
away
from
the
drill.
This also keeps normal
sediment
from collecting
in
the valve.
4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure
from the connection on the lower right rear of the
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
tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut square.
5. Using a cordless drill, drill a 1/4" hole in the cold water pipe
you have selected.

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"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 the washer makes a watertight
seal. Do not overtighten.
7. Slip the compression
sleeve and compression nut on the
copper tubing as shown. 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
or you may crush the copper tubing.
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.
Connect to Refrigerator
Depending
on your
model,
the water
line may come
down
from
the top or up from the bottom.
Follow
the connection
instructions
for your
model.
Style 1
1. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Attach the
copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression nut and
sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten.
Confirm copper tubing is secure by pulling on
copper tubing.
2. Create a service loop with the copper tubing. Avoid kinks
when coiling the copper tubing. Secure copper tubing to
refrigerator
cabinet with a "P" clamp.

and check for leaks.
Correct any leaks.
Style 2
1.
Create
a service loop (minimum
diameter
of 2 ft [61 cm])
with the copper
tubing.
Avoid
kinks when
coiling
the copper
tubing.
2.
Remove
the plastic
cap from
water
valve
inlet port. Place
a
compression
nut and sleeve on the copper
tubing.
3.
Insert the end of the copper
tubing
into the water
valve
inlet
port.
Shape
tubing
slightly
so that the tubing
feeds
straight
into the port to avoid
kinks.
