INSTALLING THE WATER LINE
Connecting the water line to the Refrigerator.
There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection.
You may fi nd these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store.
• 1/4” compression nut • plastic tubing
• copper tubing • ferrule
1. Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fi tting.
- If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut
(not included) and ferrule (not included)
on copper tubing (not included) as shown.
- If you are using plastic tubing
, insert the molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing into the
compression fi tting.
Do not use without the molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing
.
2.
Tighten the compression nut onto the compression fi tting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut .
3. Turn water on and check for any leakage.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water source.
If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4“ of the plastic tubing to make sure
you get a snug, leak-free connection.
Installing the water fi lter.
Before installing the water fi lter, please remove the
top shelf.
1. Remove the water fi lter cover(

)
2. Remove the fi xed cap by turning it counter
clockwise. Keep the cap in a safe place for later use
if you don’t use a fi lter.
3. Remove the water fi lter from the box and put a
replacement indicator sticker on the fi lter as shown.
Place a sticker on the fi lter that dates six months
in the future. For example, if you install the water
fi lter in March, put the “SEP” sticker on the fi lter to
remind you to replace in September. That way you’ll
know when it is time to replace the fi lter. Normally, a
fi lter life is about 6 months.
