8. Replacing the doors

To replace the doors, simply reverse steps 3 through 7�

However, please note the following:

• When lowering the doors onto the bottom hinges, make sure

the second person carefully guides the tube and harnesses

through the holes in the hinges.

• When connecting the water line, make sure you insert the

tubing all the way to the mark.

• Do not pinch the tubing and harnesses when placing the

doors on the bottom hinges.

CONNECTING THE REFRIGERATOR TO THE

HOUSE WATER LINE (ice and water dispenser models)

A cold water supply is required for automatic ice maker and

dispenser operation� The water pressure should be between

276-827kPa (40 y 120 p�s�i)� Do not install old tubing or

tubing kits.

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 flow through the

refrigerator water valve� Install it in the water line near

the refrigerator�

• 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

tubing kit, 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 tubing

kit, 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.

• Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided to hold it in

position� You may need to pry open the clamp�

TURN ON THE WATER SUPPLY

Turn the water on at the shut off valve (house water supply)

and check for any leaks�
