necessary to connect the water dispenser.
- 1/4 in. OD copper tubing for the water supply line.
OR
- 1/4 in. OD plastic tubing for the water supply line.
- 1/4 in. shut off valve in the water supply line. This should be easily accessible
through the lower intake vent.
Connect the water supply line:
Install a 1/4 in. OD water supply line [1] from the water shut off valve of the vehicle
to the solenoid water valve [2] at the rear of the refrigerator (See Art01724):
