Installing the water line.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Connect the Tubing to the Refrigerator
Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
We recommend installing a water filter if your water
supply has sand or particles that could clog the
screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install it in
the water line near the refrigerator.
Remove screws and fold back access cover.
Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water
valve.
Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown.
Insert the end of the copper tubing into the
water valve connection as far as possible. While
holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.
Fasten the copper tubing into the clamp
provided to hold it in a vertical position.
You may need to pry open the clamp.

Turn the Water On at the Shutoff Valve

Plug In the Refrigerator
Arrange the coil of copper tubing so that it does not
vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or against
the wall.
Push the refrigerator back to the wall.
Start the Icemaker
Set the icemaker feeler arm to the ON (down)
position. The icemaker will not begin to operate
until it reaches its operating temperature of 15°F
(-9°C) or below. It will then begin operation
automatically if the icemaker feeler arm is in the
ON
(down) position.
NOTE: The icemaker may double-cycle when it first starts,
causing some water spillage from the icemaker into the
ice bucket. This is normal and should not happen again.
