4. Slide the end of the water valve tubing onto the end of the fill
tube spout as far as it will go. If the tubing will not reach, pull
as much as you need through the clips.
5. Tighten the tubing clamp screw with a hex-head screwdriver.
6. Check to see if the tubing is secure. If it slides out of the
spout, replace it and tighten the clamp screw further.
7. Press the tubing into the two clips you installed earlier on the
back of the freezer.
8. Pull any excess tubing near the fill tube down through the two
clips so that it forms a straight line with a loop at the bottom of
the water valve.
Install Ice Maker
1. Remove the U-shaped groove at the rear of the ice maker fill
cup. Bend the tab back and forth until it breaks free. The fill
tube will fit through this groove when the ice maker is
installed.
2. Remove the ice maker shutoff arm. Remember the shutoff arm
positioning.
3. Insert the long shutoff arm that was supplied with the freezer.
Be sure that it is the same position as the original arm.
4. Position the ice maker inside the freezer and connect the
wiring harness to the wiring harness connector so that the
locking arm snaps over the raised tab. The connectors will fit
together only one way.
5. Partially install the two upper mounting screws into the ice
maker cover. Position the ice maker assembly onto the upper
screws.
6. Install the lower mounting screw. Tighten all screws. Do not
overtighten.
7. Ensure that the fill tube is fitted into the ice maker fill cup.
Connect to Freezer
1. Attach the plastic tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten.
2. Using the tube clamp on the back of the freezer, secure the
tubing to the freezer as shown. This will help avoid damage to
the tubing when the freezer is pushed back against the wall.
3. Turn shutoff valve ON.
4. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including
connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
NOTE: The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If
your water conditions require a second water strainer, install it in
the
¹⁄₄
" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube connection. Obtain a
water strainer from your nearest appliance dealer.
