Connecting The Water Supply
ABOUT YOUR REFRIGERATOR’S WATER SUPPLY
The automatic ice & water dispenser on your refrigerator requires a permanent
water supply to function correctly. During installation, you (or a service
professional) establish this water supply by connecting a copper tube from your
household water system to a valve at the rear of the refrigerator.
What you will need:
• Access to a cold water line with pressure of 1.4-6.9 bars.
• The water connector kit that comes with your refrigerator, which provides all
materials for a water supply installation, including 7.6 m (25 feet) of copper
tubing.
To connect the water supply to the rear of your
refrigerator:
1
Ensure that the refrigerator is not plugged in.
2
Flush the supply line until water is clear by placing the
end of the copper tube in a sink or bucket and opening
the shut-off valve.
3
Unscrew the plastic cap from the water valve inlet at
the rear of your refrigerator. Discard the cap.
4
Slide the brass compression nut, then the ferrule
(sleeve) onto copper tube.
5
Push the copper tube into water valve inlet as far as it
will go (6.5mm).
6
Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into valve and finger-tighten
the compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half
turn with a wrench.
Do not over-tighten
.
7
Secure the copper tube to your refrigerator’s rear panel
with a steel clamp and screw (see illustration).

To avoid property damage:
• Use copper tubing for the water supply line (plastic tubing is more
likely to leak). Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage if
plastic tubing is used for supply line.
• Ensure water supply complies with local plumbing codes.
• For proper dispenser operation, recommended water supply pressure
should fall between 1.4 and 6.9 bars. Excessive pressure may cause
water filter to malfunction.
