WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can
cause death or severe personal injury,
disconnect the unit from electrical pow-
er source before connecting a water
supply line to the appliance.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• Use Copper or Stainless Steel braid-
ed tubing for the water supply line.
Frigidaire does not recommend wa-
ter supply tubing made of ¼" plastic.
Plastic tubing greatly increases the
potential for water leaks, and the
manufacturer will not be responsible
for any damage if plastic tubing is
used for the supply line.
• DO NOT install water supply tubing
in areas where temperatures fall
below freezing.
 NOTE
Ensure that your water supply line con-
nections comply with all local plumb-
ing codes.
Before Installing The Water Supply Line,
You Will Need:
• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench,
flat-blade screwdriver, and Phillips
screwdriver
• Access to a household cold water
line with water pressure between 30
and 100 psi.
• A braided stainless steel water supply
line with integral fittings such as Smart
Choice® 5304437642 or ¼" copper
line with compression fittings. The line
must be 6˙ or longer to allow appli-
ance to be moved out for cleaning.
• A shutoff valve to connect the water
supply line to your household water
system. DO NOT use a self-piercing
type shutoff valve.
• Do not reuse compression fitting or
use thread seal tape.
• A compression nut and ferrule
(sleeve) for connecting a copper
water supply line to the water valve.
