7. Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on copper

tubing as shown. Insert end of tubing into outlet end squarely

as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end

with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.

turn ON main water supply and flush out tubing until water is

Connecting to refrigerator:

NOTE: The first step for connecting the water line to your

refrigerator is different depending on the type of water valve

provided with your refrigerator. See the diagrams below to

determine the style of valve you have. (On kit models, assemble

water valve to refrigerator per kit instructions.)

1. For Style 1, disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the

product and insert the copper tubing through the clamp, as

shown. Remove the tape label from the valve inlet and insert

copper tubing until it bottoms out (approximately ³⁄₄ in. [1.9

cm]). Tighten nut by hand as much as possible; then turn the

nut an additional ¹⁄₂ turn using a wrench. Do not overtighten.

Re-attach the tube clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet.

Skip to Step 2.

For Style 2, disconnect the tube clamp on the back of the

product and insert copper tubing through the clamp as

shown. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a

compression nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the

compression nut. Do not overtighten. Re-attach the tube

clamp and tube to the back of the cabinet. Move to Step 2.

2. Turn shut-off valve ON. Check For Leaks. Tighten any

connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that

leak.

3. The ice maker is equipped with a built-in water strainer. If

local water conditions require periodic cleaning or a well is

your source of water supply, a second water strainer should

be installed in the ¹⁄₄ in. (6.35 mm) water line. Obtain a water

strainer from your nearest appliance dealer. Install at either

tube connection.
