Connecting the water supply line to the refrigerator
There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection.
You may find these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store.
Use Copper Tubing
• ¼" copper tubing
• ¼" compression nut(1pc)
• Ferrule (2pc)
1. Connect the household water line to the compression fitting.
- If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut
( B ) (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on the copper
tubing (not supplied) as shown.
- If you are using plastic tubing ( B ), insert the molded end
(Bulb) of the plastic tubing ( B ) into the compression fitting.
CAUTION
Do not use without the molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing (B).
2. Tighten the compression nut ( B ) onto the compression fitting.
Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( B ).
3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage.
If you fi nd water drops or leakage in the connection areas, turn off the main water supply. Check the
connections and, if necessary, tighten.
4. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days.
Over that period of time, throw out the fi rst 1 or 2 buckets of ice the freezer makes to ensure all
impurities have been removed from the water line.
NOTE
If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4" of the plastic tubing to make sure you get
a snug, leak-free connection.
