INSTALLATION

• Remove outer carton.
– Carefully cut banding at the top and bottom.
• Slide out back corner posts (2).
• Slide carton off top of cabinet.
NOTE: IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO LAY CABINET DOWN
IN ORDER TO REMOVE SKID!
• To remove skid, remove the four 7/16" bolts and their

brackets.

NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in
many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure
a saddle type valve complies with your local plumbing
codes.

NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing
Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves
are illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts.
Consult with your licensed plumber.

• A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker

operation. The water pressure must be between 40 and
120 p.s.i.

• Route 1/4" OD copper tubing between house cold water

line and the water connection location.

• Copper tubing should be long enough to extend to the

front of the refrigerator. Allow enough to accommodate
bend leading into the water valve.

Shut off the main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line
of water.
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water

valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet.
The shut-off valve should be located where it will be
easily accessible.

NOTE: It is best to install the valve into a vertical water
pipe. If you install the valve into a horizontal water pipe,
make the connection at the top or side, rather than at
the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the
water pipe.
• Drill a 1/4" hole in the water pipe.
• Fasten the shut-off valve to the pipe with pipe clamp.
• Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer

begins to swell. Do not over tighten.

• Place a compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the

end of the tubing and connect it to the shut-off valve.
Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve and
ferrule is tightened.

• Turn on the main water supply and flush debris from

the line. Run about a quart of water through the tubing
into a bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off
valve.
