ICEMAKER
IceMaker
The icemaker for a combined refrigerator-freezer
is located in the freezer compartment. It must be
connected to the water supply to function properly.
These instructions only refer to the installation of
the icemaker. Please refer to the Use and Care
Manual provided with the appliance for operation
instructions. The combined refrigerator-freezer must
be level for the icemaker to function properly.
Safety Instructions and Warnings
• Do not install the water connection while the
combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to an
electrical outlet.
• The connection to the water supply may only be
made by a trained and licensed plumber.
• The water quality must comply with the drink-
ing water regulations for the geographical area
where the appliance is located.
Water Connection
• 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 14).
• A shut-off valve, such as the saddle valve illus-
trated 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.

Cover strips - Figure 15
Before connection to the water supply, the cover
strips provided must be fitted to the appliance. It is
necessary because the appliance will be moved
into its recess.
• Remove the cover band from the strips and stick
them to the left and right front edge of the appli-
ance housing (Figure 15).
• 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.
