5. Using a grounded drill, drill a ¹⁄₄" hole in the cold water pipe
you have selected.
6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the ¹⁄₄" drilled hole
in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp.
Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws
slowly and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not
overtighten, or you may crush the copper tubing.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the
copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the
outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut
onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten
the clamp or the sleeve. This will crush the copper tubing.
8. Before attaching copper tubing to the refrigerator place the
free end of the tubing in a container or sink and turn on the
main water supply. Flush at least 2 qt (1.9 L) of water through
the copper tubing until water is clear to get rid of any particles
in the water line. Turn off the shutoff valve on the water pipe.
Coil the copper tubing.
9. Check for leaks around the saddle valve.
Connecting to Refrigerator
Style 1 - Copper Line Connection
1. Remove the shipping tape from the gray, coiled water tubing
on the rear of the refrigerator.
2. A ¹⁄₄" x ¹⁄₄" coupling is needed in order to connect the water
tubing to an existing household water line. Thread the
provided nut onto the coupling on the end of the copper
tubing.
NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench
two more turns. Do not overtighten.
3. Turn shutoff valve ON.
4. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including
connections at the valve) that leak.
5. Flush the water system. See “Water System Preparation.”
NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard
the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to
completely fill ice container.
Style 2 - Shutoff Valve Connection
1. Remove the shipping tape from the gray, coiled water tubing
on the rear of the refrigerator.
2. Thread the provided nut onto the water valve as shown.
NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand. Then tighten it with a wrench
two more turns. Do not overtighten.
3. Turn shutoff valve ON.
4. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including
connections at the valve) that leak.
5. Flush the water system. See “Water System Preparation.”
NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard
the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to
completely fill ice container.
