3. Properpackaging.Usefoodwrapsdesigned
especiallyforfreezing.
Tofreezemeat,fih and podtry, wrapwellinfieezer-

=Ifyou use your retilgerator before connecting
the water line, make sure the icemaker feeler
arm is kept in the STOP (up) position.
~Do not installthe icemaker tubing in areas
where temperatures fallbelowfreezing.
~When using any electricaldevice (such as a
power drill) during installation,be sure the
deviceis insulated orwired in amanner to
prevent the hazard ofelectric shock.
~Ml installationsmust be in accordance with
localplumbing code requirements.

~ACOldwater supply is required for automatic
icernaker operation.The water pressure must
be between 20and 120p.s.i.
~Power M9 unlessyouhaveaseti-piercingvalve.
@Copper tibin~~ 1/4” outer diameter to
connect the retilgerator to the water supply
Be sure both ends ofthe tubing are cut square.
To determine how much copper tubing you
need: measure the distance fi-omthe water valve
on the back ofthe refrigerator to the water
supplypipe.Then add 8feet. Be sure there is
sufficientextra tubing (about 8feet coiled into
3turns ofabout 10inches diameter) to allowthe
retiigerator to move outfrom the wallafter
installation.Do not use plastic tubing or plastic
fittingsbecause the water supplyline is under
pressure at alltimes. Also,certain types of
plastictubing may become britie with age and
crack, resulting in water leakage.
~ShU~OffVdVeto connect to the cold water
line.The shut-offvalveshould have awater

UNE. Saddletype shut-offvalvesare included
in manywater supplykits. Before purchasing,
make sure asaddle-typevalvecompfieswith
your localplumbing codes.
~Two 1/4” outer diameter COmpreSSiOnnu@
and 2ferrules I(sleeves) –to connect the
copper tubing to the shutoff valveand the

~Ifyour etisting water line has aflared fitting at

plumbing supply stores) to connect the water
line to the refrigerator OR-you can cut offthe
