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.
In order for the ice maker to operate properly, a
water pressure of 20~125psi ( 138~862kPa) is
required.
Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) cup
can be filled in about 10 seconds.
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.
Water line installation kits are available at
extra cost from your dealer.
We recommend using a water line
installation kit that contains copper tubing
and ¼” compression nut.
