Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
If your refrigerator does not have a water filter, we
recommend installing one if your water supply has
sand or particles that could clog the screen of the
refrigerator’s water valve. Install it in the water line
near the refrigerator.
Remove access cover.
Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water
valve (refrigerator connection).
Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown.
Insert the end of the copper tubing into the
water valve refrigerator connection as far as
possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the
fitting.
Fasten the copper tubing into the clamp
provided to hold it in position. You may
need to pry open the clamp.
Replace access cover.
The illustration below will look like the connection on your
refrigerator.

Plug In the Refrigerator
Arrange the coil of copper tubing so that it does not
vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or against
the wall.
Push the refrigerator back to the wall.
Start the Icemaker
Set the icemaker power switch to the
ON
position.
The icemaker will not begin to operate until it
reaches its operating temperature of 15°F (-9°C) or
below. It will then begin operation automatically if
the icemaker power switch is in the
ON
position.
NOTE: In lower water pressure conditions, the
water valve may turn on up to 3 times to make
sure enough water reaches the icemaker.
