Flush out the tubing into a bucket.
• Flush out the tubing coming from the home
water supply until the water is clear. Shut
the water off at the water valve after about
one quart of water has been flushed
through the tubing.
NOTE
• Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure that the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.

Remove the flexible plastic cap from the water
valve on the refrigerator.

Turn the water on at the shutoff valve.
• Tighten any connections that leak.
CAUTION
• Check to see if leaks occur at the water line
connections.
• Make sure the house water valve is fully open. If
it is not open completely, the icemaker and
dispenser may not work properly.
Turning on the Power
• After installing, plug the refrigerator's power
cord into a 3-prong grounded outlet and push
the refrigerator into the final position.
CAUTION
• Connect to a rated power outlet.
• Have a certified electrician check the wall outlet
and wiring for proper grounding.
• Do not damage or cut off the ground terminal of
the power plug.
Position the Refrigerator
• Arrange the coil of tubing so that it does not
vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or
against the wall. Push the refrigerator back
toward the wall.
Start the Icemaker
• If the water line is connected, set the icemaker
power switch to the ON position.
• The icemaker will not begin to operate until it
reaches its operating temperature of 15 °F (–9
°C) or below. It will then begin operation
automatically if the icemaker power switch is in
the ON (I) position.
