Connect to Refrigerator

1. Create a service loop (minimum diameter of 2 ft [61 cm]) with

the copper tubing. Avoid kinks when coiling the copper
tubing.

2. Remove the plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Place a

compression nut and sleeve on the copper tubing.

3. Insert the end of the copper tubing into the water valve inlet

port. Shape tubing slightly so that the tubing feeds straight
into the port to avoid kinks.

4. Slide the compression nut over the sleeve and screw into the

water valve inlet port.

5. Using an adjustable wrench, hold the nut on the plastic water

line to keep it from moving. Then, with a second wrench turn
the compression nut on the copper tubing counterclockwise
to completely tighten. Do not overtighten.

6. Check connection by pulling on copper tubing. Attach copper

tubing to refrigerator cabinet with a “P” clamp. Turn on water
supply to refrigerator and check for leaks. Correct any leaks.

Complete the Installation

1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
NOTE: Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard
the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to completely
fill the ice container.
