Connect to Water Line
IMPORTANT: If you have turned the refrigerator on before the
water was connected, turn off the ice maker.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long
enough to reduce water pressure in the water line.
3. Use a quarter-turn shut-off valve or the equivalent, served by
a 1/2" household supply line.
NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the refrigerator, a minimum
1/2" (12.7 mm) size household supply line is recommended.

4. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing to the
shut-off valve. Use 1/4" (6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter)
soft copper tubing to connect the shut-off valve and the
refrigerator.
Ensure that you have the proper length needed for the job.

Be sure both ends of the copper tubing are cut square.

5. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink and
turn on main water supply to flush out tubing until water is
clear. Turn off shut-off valve on the water pipe.
NOTE: Always drain the water line before making the final
connection to the inlet of the water valve to avoid possible
water valve malfunction.
6. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water line inlet which
is located on the back of the refrigerator cabinet as shown.
Leave a coil of copper tubing to allow the refrigerator to be
pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.
