7. Connecting the water line to the “shut off” valve:
Put the tightened nut over the copper or plastic water line,
then the compression fitting, and insert the copper (or
plastic) end inside the “shut off” valve. Make sure the
pipe end sits all the way inside the valve. Tighten
(but don’t over-tighten) the nut. Follow the descriptions
specified in 248CMR of Massachusetts Federal Piping
Standard. Saddle-backed valve is unlawful in
Massachusetts and is forbidden. Please consult a
licensed plumber if you are unsure of the assembly.
8. Clear the water line supply:
Turn on the main water supply until the water in the pipe
becomes clear and clean. Turn off the water valve after
having used water for about 30 seconds – 1 minute.
9. Connect the water supply line to the refrigerator.
Note: Before connecting the water line to the refrigerator, make sure the water
line is not draped over the power cord to the refrigerator or power outlet.
(1) Tighten the water supply line at the fridge water
valve by sliding the nut over the water line end.
(2) Then, as shown in the figure, connect the end
side of the water supply line to the water valve;
tighten the water supply line nut with a crescent
wrench.
Note: Please make sure that the 1/4" water tube is fully inserted
into the water valve prior to tightening. Open the water
supply valve and check for leaks, before positioning the
unit in place.
