To reduce the risk of injury or death, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions
before
installing ice maker.
•
Do not
attempt installation if instructions are not
understood or if they are beyond personal skill
level.
• Observe all local codes and ordinances.
•
Do not
service ice maker unless specifically
recommended in Use & Care Guide or published
user-repair instructions.
• Disconnect power to refrigerator
before
installing
ice maker.
• Water damage due to an improper water
connection may cause mold/mildew growth. Clean
up spills or leakage immediately!
WARNING
To avoid property damage or possible injury,
follow basic precautions, including the
following:
• Consult a plumber to connect
1
⁄
4
”
O.D. copper
tubing
to household plumbing to assure
compliance with local codes and ordinances.
• Confirm water pressure to water valve is between
35 and 100 pounds per square inch, 20 pounds
per square inch without filter.
•
Do not
use a self-piercing or
3
⁄
16
” saddle valve.
Both reduce water flow and can become clogged
over time, and may cause leaks if repair is
attempted.
• Tighten nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.
Finish tightening nuts with pliers and wrenches.
Do not
over-tighten.
• Wait two to three hours
before
placing refrigerator
into final position to check and correct any water
leaks. Recheck for leaks after 24 hours.
• Verify the copper tubing under the sleeve is
smooth and free from defects.
Do not
reuse an
old sleeve.
CAUTION
Materials Needed
•
1
⁄
4
” outer diameter flexible copper tubing
• Shut-off valve (requires a
1
⁄
4
” hole to be drilled into
water supply line
before
valve attachment)
• Adjustable wrench (2)
•
1
⁄
4
” hex nut driver
Notes:
• Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is
less durable and can cause damage.
• Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water
supply for creation of service loop.
1. Create service loop with
copper tubing (minimum 2’
diameter). Avoid kinks in the
copper tubing when
bending the service loop.
Do
not
use plastic tubing.
2. Remove plastic cap from water valve
inlet port.
3. Place brass nut
(A)
and sleeve
(B)
on copper tube end as illustrated.
Reminder: Do not
use an old
sleeve. The nut and sleeve are
provided in the Use and Care
packet.
4. Place end of copper tubing into
water valve inlet port. Shape
tubing slightly.
Do not
kink – so
that tubing feeds straight into inlet
port.
