WARNING I
To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe
personal injury or death, disconnect power to
refrigerator before connecting water supply. After
replacing doors connect power.
l CAUTION
Observe the following to avoid property damage:
• Make sure water pressure to water valve is between
20 and 100 pounds per square inch.
• Tighten adapter fitting and nuts with pliers and
wewrenches. Do not overtighten.
• Check for water leaks and correct if necessary
before retruning refrigerator to normal location. After
24 hours check again for leaks.
Important
• Before connecting water supply, contact plumber to
connect copper tubing to household plumbing in
compliance with local codes and ordinances.
• Amana does not recommend using a self-piercing, or
3/16"saddle valve! Both reduce water flow, become
clogged with time and in addition may cause leaks if
repair is attempted. The correct type of shut-off valve
requires a 1/4"hole to be drilled in the water supply
pipe prior to valve attachement. Amana is not
responsible for property damage cuased by improper
water connection.
Materials Required
1/4"O.D. (6 mm) flexible copper tubing is required.
Length of copper tubing must reach from water supply
connection to water valve inlet port on back of
refrigerator, plus an additional 8 ft. (2 m) of tubing for a
service loop. A service loop will allow refrigerator to be
