Style 2

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove and discard the plastic part that is attached to the

inlet of the water valve.

3. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression

nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not

overtighten.

4. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure

the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid

damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back

against the wall.

5. Turn shutoff valve ON.

6. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including

connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

7. On some models, the ice maker is equipped with a built-in

water strainer. If your water conditions require a second water

strainer, install it in the ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) water line at either tube

connection. Obtain a water strainer from your nearest

appliance dealer.

Style 3

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove and discard the black nylon plug from the gray water

tube on the rear of the refrigerator.

3. If the gray water tube supplied with the refrigerator is not long

enough, a ¹⁄₄" x ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm x 6.35 mm) 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.

4. Turn shutoff valve ON.

5. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (including

connections at the valve) that leak.

Complete the Installation

1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

2. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers” in the

User Instructions or User Guide.

NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow

72 hours to completely fill ice container.

Install Air Filter

(on some models)

On some models, your refrigerator's accessory packet includes

an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models,

the air filter is already installed at the factory.

The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a

cleaner environment inside the refrigerator.

Installing the Air Filter (on some models)

The filter should be installed behind the vented door, which is

located (depending on your model) along either the rear or left

interior wall near the top of the refrigerator compartment.
