WHAT YOU WILL NEED
●
A
cold water
is required for automatic
icemaker operation. The water pressure must
be between 20 and 120

you have a
●
Copper tubing, 1/4” outer diameter to
connect the refrigerator to the water supply.
Be sure both ends of the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much copper tubing you
need: measure the distance from the water valve
on the back of the refrigerator to the water
supply pipe. Then add 8 feet Be sure there is
sufficient tubing (about 8 feet coiled into
3 turns of about 10 inches diameter) to allow the
refrigerator to move out from the wall after
instigation. Do not use plastic tubing or plastic
fittings because the water supply line is under
pressure at times. certain types of
plastic tubing may become with age and
crack, resulting in water leakage.
●
Shutoff-e to connect to the cold water
The shut-off valve should have a water
inlet with a minimum inside diameter of 5/32”
at the point of connection to the
shut-off valves are included
in many water supply kits. Before purchasing,
make sure a
valve with
your local plumbing codes.

Two 1/4” outer diameter compression nuts

plumbing supply stores) to connect the water

a.
Choose a location for the valve that is easily
accessible. It is best to connect into the side of
a water pipe. When it is necessary to
connect into a water pipe, make the
connection to the top or side, rather than at
the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment
from the water pipe.
b. Drill a 1/4” hole in the water pipe, using a
sharp bit Remove any burrs resulting from
the hole in the pipe. not drill a
hole valve is a type.)
c. Fasten the shutoff
valve to the cold
water pipe with the
pipe clamp.
d. Tighten the clamp
screws until the
sealing washer
begins to swell. Do

not over-tighten or I
