Installation Instructions
CONNECTING THE REFRIGERATOR
TO THE HOUSE WATER LINE
(ice maker and dispenser models)
A cold water supply is required for automatic
ice maker and dispenser operation. If there
is not a cold water supply, you will need to
provide one. See
Installing the Water Line
section.
NOTES:
Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
If your refrigerator does not have a water
filter, we recommend installing one if your
water supply has sand or particles that
could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s
water valve. Install it in the water line near
the refrigerator. If using GE SmartConnect
™
Refrigerator Tubing Kit, you will need an
additional tube (WX08X10002) to connect the
filter. Do not cut plastic tube to install filter.
If you are using copper tubing,
place a
compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the
end of the tubing coming from the house cold
water supply.
If you are using the GE SmartConnect
™
tubing,
the nuts are already assembled to the
tubing.
If you are using copper tubing,
insert the end
of the tubing into the refrigerator connection,
at the back of the refrigerator, as far as
possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the
fitting.
If you are using GE SmartConnect
™
tubing,
insert the molded end of the tubing into the
refrigerator connection, at the back of the
refrigerator, and tighten the compression nut
until it is hand tight. Then tighten one additional
turn with a wrench. Overtightening may cause
leaks.
