AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

P/N:  242102400

     

The following items will be required to install the ice maker kit.

1/4 inch copper or stainless steel supply line with shut off valve

• 

1/4 inch brass compression nut and ferrule (cooper tubing only)

• 

Freezer shelf (Some models not equipped with shelf). If your  model does not have 

• 

one, contact your dealer to order one.

The copper tubing and shut off valve are available in a kit from your local hardware or 
plumbing supply store. Coil enough tubing at the back of the unit to allow movement for 
cleaning.  

 

 

       

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or severe personal injury, 

• 

disconnect the refrigerator from electrical power before connecting a water 
supply line to the refrigerator.

Connect the ice maker to a potable water supply only.

• 

CAUTION

To Avoid Property Damage:

Copper tubing is recommended for the water supply line. Water supply tubing 

• 

made of 1/4” plastic is not recommended since it greatly increases the potential 

for water leaks. The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage if plastic 

tubing is used for the supply line.
DO NOT

• 

 install water supply tubing in areas where temperatures fall below 

freezing.
Chemicals from a malfunctioning water softener can damage the ice maker. If the 

• 

ice maker is connected to softened water, ensure that the softener is maintained 
and working properly.
