Connection to the Water Supply
1. Install the shut-off valve, water filter and auto-
matic shut-off device as required.
Note
The solenoid valve is located at the rear of
your unit.
2. The 1/4" OD copper
tubing between the
shut-off valve and
solenoid valve has a
Metric R3/4 male con-
nector (Figure 14).
Make sure there is
approximately 30" (70
cm) of excess tubing
behind the unit for
easy connection.
Note
A R3/4(metric) to a
1/4" OD adapter is
supplied with the ice-
maker.
3. Open the shut-off
valve for the water
supply and check the
entire water system for leaks. Before the appli-
ance is used for the first time a licensed plumb-
er should bleed air from the system.
4. Insert the electrical plug for the combined refrig-
erator/freezer into the electrical outlet (Figure
15).
5. Move the combined refrigerator-freezer into final
position in the room.

Water Connection
Please read the first three points of the safety
instructions and warnings before connecting the
appliance to the main water supply.
• The water pressure must be between 21.8-87.0
psi (1.5-6 bar).
• Use a 1/4" OD copper line to connect the water
supply to the solenoid valve. This is not sup-
plied with the refrigerator (Figure 13).
• A shut-off valve, such as the saddle valve illus-
tration here, must be installed between the hose
line and the main water supply so the water sup-
ply can be stopped if necessary.
Do not install the shut-off valve behind the
refrigeration unit.

• If you have hard water, we recommend you install
a water softener. Also, a filter must be installed if
the water contains solids such as sand.
• All equipment and devices used to supply the
water to the appliance must comply with the cur-
rent regulations for your geographical area.
