INSTALLATION

ENGLISH

 

NOTE

A self piercing saddle type water valve 
should not be used. 

 

NOTE

The hookup line cannot be white, plastic 
tubing. Licensed plumbers must use 
only copper tubing NDA tubing #49595 
or 49599 or Cross Link Polyethylene 
(PEX) tubing.

If your existing copper water line has a 

 

y

flared fitting at the end, you will need 
an 

adapter

 (available at plumbing supply 

stores) to connect the water line to the 
refrigerator OR you can cut off the flared 
fitting with a tube 
cutter and then use a 
compression fitting.

Shutoff valve to 

 

y

connect to the cold water line.

 The shutoff 

valve should have a water inlet with a 
minimum inside diameter of 5/32 in. at 
the point of connection to the COLD 
WATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves 
are included in many water supply kits. 
Before purchasing, 
make sure a saddle-
type valve complies 
with your local 
plumbing codes.

Water Line Installation Instructions

Install the shutoff valve on the nearest 

frequently used drinking water line.

1

 

SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY
Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the 

pressure on the line.

2

 

CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for 

the valve that is easily 

accessible. It is best to 

connect into the side of a 

vertical water pipe. When 

it is necessary to connect 

into a horizontal 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.

3

 

DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE 
Drill a ¼ in. hole in 

the water pipe using 

a sharp bit. Remove 

any burrs resulting 

from drilling the hole 

in the pipe. Be careful 

not to allow water 

to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a ¼ in. 

hole may result in reduced ice production 

or smaller cubes.

 WARNING

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.
