3. Tighten the compression nut ( b ) onto the compression fitting.
Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( b ) .
4. Turn water on and check for any leakage. If you find water drops or leakage in the connection areas, turn
off the main water supply. Check the connections and, if nescessary, tighten.
5. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter before drinking or using the water from the refrigerator. (Flush
approximately 6 minutes.) To flush, press a large glass or cup against the water dispenser lever. Fill the
glass, empty it into the kitchen sink after it is filled, and then repeat.
6. 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 first 1 or 2 buckets of ice the freezer makes to ensure all impurities have been removed
from the water line.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water source.
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.
