P NOTE REGARDING LOW WATER PRESSURE
While it is not typical, be aware that sufficient water pressure is required for the optimal
experience. Insufficient water pressure to your Water Optimizer will degrade outgoing water
flow, and in rare worst cases, even prevent the feature from functioning. If you experience any
of these issues, we recommend speaking with a professional plumber.
If your water pressure cannot be resolved, we do offer an Alternative Ice Maker Configuration
for users that have chosen a Accessory Water Line as their source. This
“Alternative
Configuration” (see page 2-8)
allows the water flow to be shared, rather than daisy-
chained.
Identify
1. If you haven’t already, look at the back of your appliance(s), and identify which of the
above listed connection(s) you will be connecting to. Only follow the directions with the
relevant icon(s), and skip the others.

If you are planning to have
2 Accessory Appliances
, you will be connecting both
to
E
1/4 in. Brass Compression Tee first, and then connecting that to
Accessory Output Port ( see Use & Care Guide or In/Out sticker on bottom rear
corner of right exterior panel ) on your Water Optimizer. You can locate where they
connect to the Brass Compression Tee wherever is most convenient. Just be sure to allow
enough length when cutting sections of
A
1/4 in. White PP Tubing . Also, if your
appliance has a hose (rather than port) that isn’t long enough to reach, follow the
instructions below for
“Extending” on page 2-37 .
