diameter copper tube on the
dispenser to the T-fitting as shown
(see step 4).

WATER CONNECTION OPTIONS

Attach the valve to a

cold water supply line

.

Shutoff valve option (not supplied):

The water connection can be made
using a shutoff valve. This is a more
complex installation and should only
be attempted by an experienced
installer with the proper knowledge
and tools.

Saddle valve option (not supplied):

Follow the directions for
“self-piercing attachment”
included with the valve.

Connect the 16" (40.6 cm) long, 1/4"
diameter copper tube on the dispenser
to the saddle valve as shown (see step 4).

Open the valve and let a small amount
of water run through it into a pan.
This will flush the line of sediment.
