CONNECT THE WATER LINE
Squeeze the ends of the hose clamp (3) or (6) from
the kit with pliers and slide the clamp over the
water tube inlet. (Use the black clamp (3) with
the black fill tube inlet, use the other clamp (6)
with the other fill tube inlet.)
While still squeezing the clamp, insert the
plastic water line into the inlet as far as it will
go (approximately 1[25 mm]).
Then slide the clamp downward to capture the
plastic water line in place.
Make sure the fill tube is aimed down.
