CONNECTING TO THE HOUSE WATER LINE
BEFORE BEGINNING
•
Connect to potable water supply only.
•
A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker operation.
•
The water pressure must be between 30 - 100 psi (207 - 700 kPa).
Operation outside the water pressure range may cause malfunction,
severe and damaging water leaks.
•
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below
30 psi or 207 kPa), you can install a booster pump to compensate for
the low pressure.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
•
Attach tubing clamp using existing hole only. DO NOT drill into the
refrigerator.
•
When using any electrical device (such as a power drill) during
installation, be sure the device is battery-powered, double-insulated or
grounded in a manner that will prevent the hazard of electric shock.
The water connection must be made by a qualified plumber. This water line
installation is not covered by the refrigerator warranty. Follow these
instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage.
If necessary, call a qualified plumber to correct water hammer before
installing the water supply line to the refrigerator. Water banging in the pipes
(water hammer) in residential plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator
parts and lead to water leakage or flooding.
