Installing The Water Line - Samsung Refrigerator User Manual

However, it does not sterilize or destroy
microorganisms. You may need to purchase a
water purifying system to do that. In order for the
ice-maker to operate properly, a water pressure of
138~862 Kpa is required.
Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) cup
can be filled in 10 seconds. If the Refrigerator
is installed in an area with low water pressure
(below 138Kpa), you can install a booster pump to
compensate for the low pressure.
Make sure the water storage tank inside the
Refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the
water dispenser lever until the water runs from the
water outlet.
Water line installation kits are available at extra cost
from your dealer.
We recommend using a water supply kit that
contains copper tubing.
Check the accessory list below.
