CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE
REFRIGERATOR
Some models have the refrigerator connection at
the end of tubing located outside the compressor
compartment access cover. On other models, the
compressor compartment access cover must be
removed in order to access the refrigerator
connection at the water valve.
On models using the refrigeration connection at
the water valve, remove the plastic flexible cap.
Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown. On a GE
SmartConnect
™
Refrigerator Tubing kit, the nuts
are already assembled to the tubing.
Insert the end of the tubing into the refrigerator
connection as far as possible. While holding the
tubing, tighten the fitting.
For plastic tubing from a GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kit, insert the molded end of
the tubing into the refrigerator connection and
tighten the compression nut until it is hand tight,
then tighten one additional turn with a wrench.
Overtightening may cause leaks.
Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided as
shown to keep it in position. You may need to pry
open the clamp.
One of the illustrations below will look like the
connection on your refrigerator.

START THE ICEMAKER
Set the icemaker power switch to the I (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 I (on) position.
NOTE: In lower water pressure conditions, the
water valve may turn on up to 3 times to deliver
enough water to the icemaker.
