When
connecting
a GE Reverse
Osmosis
Water
System
to your
refrigerator,
the only
approved
installation
is with
a GE RVKIT.
If the water
supply
to the
refrigera-
tor is from
a Reverse
Osmosis
Water
System
AND the refrigerator
also has
a water
filter,
use the refrigerator's
filter
bypass
plug.
Using
the
refrigerator's
water
filtration
cartridge
in conjunction
with the
RO filter
can result
in hollow
ice
cubes
and
slower
water
flow from
the
water
dispenser.

To Remove
If you use the bypass Plug and want a light shield
without
the filter
opening,
order
a replacement
solid
light shield:

• A cold
water
supply
is required
for automatic
icemaker
operation.
The
water
pressure
must
be
between
40 and
120 p.s.i.
• Route
1/4"
OD
copper
tubing
between
house
cold
water
line
and
the
water
connec-
tion
location.
• Copper
tubing
should
be
long
enough
to
extend
to the
front
of the
refrigerator.
Allow
enough
to accommodate
bend
leading
into
the
water
valve.
Shut
off
the
main
water
supply.
Turn
on the
nearest
faucet
long
enough
to
clear
the
line
of water.
Install
a shut-off
valve
between
the
icemaker
water
valve
and
cold
water
pipe
in a basement
or cabinet.
The
shut-off
valve
should
be
located
where
it will be easily
accessible.
NOTE:
It is best
to install
the
valve
into
a
vertical
water
pipe.
If you
install
the
valve
into
a horizontal
water
pipe,
make
the
connection
at the
top
or side,
rather
than
at the
bottom,
to avoid
drawing
off any
sediment
from
the
water
pipe.
• Drill
a 1/4"
hole
in the
water
pipe.
• Fasten
the
shut-off
valve
to the
pipe
with
pipe
clamp.
• Tighten
the
clamp
screws
until
the
sealing
washer
begins
to swell.
Do
not
over
tighten.
"Place
a compression
nut
and
ferrule
(sleeve)
onto
the
end
of the
tubing
and
connect
it to
the
shut-off
valve.
Make
sure
the
tubing
is
flflly
inserted
into
the
valve
and
ferrule
is
tightened.

• Turn
on the main
water supply
and
flush
debris
from
the line. Run about
a quart
of
water
through
the tubing
into
a bucket.
Shut
off water
supply
at the shut-off
valve.
NOTE:
Saddle
type shut-off
valves are in-
cluded
in many water
supply
kits. Before
purchasing,
make
sure
a saddle
type valve
complies
with your local
plumbing
codes.
NOTE:
Commonwealth
of Massachusetts
Plumbing
Codes
248CMR
shall
be adhered
to. Saddle
valves
are
illegal
and
use
is not
permitted
in Massachusetts.
Consult
with
your
licensed
plumber.
