If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low
water pressure (below 20psi), you can install
a booster pump to compensate for the low
pressure.
After you have connected the water line, make
sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator
is properly fi lled. To do this, press the water
dispenser lever until the water runs from the water
outlet.

Water line installation kits are available at
extra cost from your dealer.
We recommend using a water line
installation kit that contains copper tubing
and ¼” compression nut.

1. First, shut off the main water

supply.

2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking line and

install the pipe clamp and shut off valve.
