Connecting to refrigerator
1.
(On kit models, assemble water valve to
refrigerator per kit instructions.) Route the
copper tubing through the tube clamp
provided as shown at right. Connect the
X-inch copper tube from the shut-off
valve to the water valve at the lower, left
rear of cabinet. Remove tape label from
valve inlet and insert tubing until it
bottoms out. (Approximately l/2 inch.)
Tighten nut by hand as much as possible;
then turn the nut an additional l/2 turn
using a wrench. Do not over tighten.
2. Turn shut-off valve ON. CHECK FOR
LEAKS. TIGHTEN ANY CONNECTIONS
(INCLUDING CONNECTIONS AT THE
VALVE) OR NUTS THAT LEAK.
3. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in
water strainer. If local water conditions
require periodic cleaning or a well is your
source of water supply, a second water
strainer should be installed in the S-inch
water line. Obtain a water strainer from
your nearest appliance dealer. Install at
either tube connection.
