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.
After removing the right side upper shelf, you can
install the water filter more easily.

Connecting the water supply line to the refrigerator.
There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection.
You may find these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store.
1. Slip the compression nut (
A) through the supplied plastic tubing (A) .
2. Tighten the compression nut (
A) onto the 1/4” compression fitting.
- If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut (
B) (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on
copper tubing (not supplied) as shown.
- If you are using plastic tubing (
B), insert the molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing (B) into the compression fitting.
3. Tighten the compression nut (
B) onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut (B).
4. Turn water on and check for any leakage.
1. Remove the water filter cover (
1 )
2. Remove the fixed cap (
2 ) by turning it counter-clockwise. Keep
the cap in a safe place for later use if you don’t use the filter.
3. Remove the water filter (
3 ) from the box and put a replacement
indicator sticker (Indicator sticker is included in the box) on
the filter as shown. Place the sticker on the filter that dates
six months in the future. For example, if you install the water
filter in March, put the “SEP” sticker on the filter to remind you
to replace it in September. This way, you can remember the
time to replace the water filter. Normally, a filter life is about 6
months.
