INSTALLING
THE WATER
DISPENSER
LINE
A water dispenser
with
a filter is one of the helpful
features
on your new refrigerator.
To help promote
better
health,
the water
filter removes
unwanted
particles
from your water. However,
it does not
sterilize
or destroy
microorganisms.
You may need
to purchase
a water
purifying
system to do that.
The water
line also connects
to the ice maker.
For the ice maker to operate
properly,
water
pressure }
of 20N125psi
(138N862kPa)
is required.
If the refrigerator
is installed
in an area with
low
water
pressure
(below
20psi), you can install
a booster
pump
to compensate
for the low
pressure.
After you have connected
the water
line, make
sure the water
storage tank inside the refrigerator
is properly
filled. To do this, press the water
dispenser
lever until the water
runs from the water
outlet.
[_
ater line installation
kits are available
at
extra cost from your dealer.
We recommend
using a water
line
installation
kit that contains
copper
tubing
and W' compression
