Flipper Mullion
Adjust Flipper Mullion for proper connection
with the mullion guide by ensuring the
flipper mullion is folded and perpendicular
to the fresh food door. If the mullion guide is
not in the correct position, it could prevent
the door from closing completely.
Connecting the water supply
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can
cause death or severe personal injury,
disconnect the refrigerator from
electrical power before connecting a
water supply line to the refrigerator.
WARNING
To Avoid Property Damage:
• DO NOT install water supply tubing
in areas where temperatures fall
below freezing.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning
water softener can damage the ice
maker. If your home has a water
softening system, ensure the
softener is maintained and working
properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line
connections comply with all local
plumbing codes.
The appliance complies with the
relevant backflow prevention
requirements specified in AS/NZS
2845.1
Before Installing the Water Supply Line, You
Will Need:
WRONG
• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-
blade screwdriver, and PhillipsTM
screwdriver
• The water dispenser and automatic ice
maker require a drinkable water supply
with a pressure range of between
206kPa and 689kPa (30PSI and
100PSI). If the water supply is above
100psi a pressure limiting valve should
be installed.
• A water supply to suit a ½" tap fitting
is required adjacent to the refrigerator.
It is recommended that a licensed
plumber install a new water supply
outlet nearer to the appliance should
the tubing supplied not be long
enough. It is not recommended that
the tubing be extended as this could
adversely affect the flow of water to the
ice maker or water dispenser. If there
is a risk of flow rate higher than the
maximum flow rate 2.46 L/min, a flow
controller should be installed.
WARNING
Connect to potable water supply only.
If using tank or bore water it is
recommended to also use an external
filter (not supplied).
The new hose-sets supplied with the
appliances must be used and old
hose-sets should not be reused.
WARNING
Never connect the appliance to a hot
water supply.
Do not use with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or with
water of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection.
