Feed water tube installation

• Automatic icemaker operation needs water pressure of 21.3-1 21psi is too

much(Ib/inch2)(That a 7 ounce paper cup will fill within 3 sec.).

• If the water pressure does not reach 21.3psi(Ib/inch2),it is necessary to purchase a

separate pressure pump for the cool water feed.

• Keep the total length of the water feed tube less than 40 feet and be careful not to

bend or kink the tube. If the tube is longer than 40 feet, the icemaker and water

dispenser will not operate properly.

• Installthe water reed tube away from any heat sources.

Warning • Connect to potable water supply only.

• Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation.

Connecting

the Refrigerator

to a Water Source

Warning

Tools Required

Cold Water Supply

Water Connection Instruction Guide

Read all directions carefully before you begin.

Connect to potable water supply only.

• Standard screwdriver

• 7/16-inch and 1/2-inch open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches

• 1/4-inch nut driver

• 1/4-inch drill bit

• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)

The icemaker water valve contains a flow washer which is used as a water

pressure regulator.

The icemaker needs to be connected to a cold water line with water pressure

21.3o-121psi(Ib/inch2)

Connect

the Tubing to

Water Line

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Turn off the main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the

pressure on the line. It may help to open anoutside faucet to allow the water to

drain from the line in the house.

3. Find a 1/2dnch to 1-1/4-inch vertical COLD water pipe near the refrigerator.

4. To determine the length of copper tubing you will need, measure from the

connection on the lower left rear of the refrigerator to the water pipe. Add 7

feet (2.1m) to allow for moving refrigerator for cleaning. Use 1/4dnch O.D.

(outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of copper tubing are cut

square.

5. Using a drill, drill a 1/4dnch hole in the cold water pipe you have selected.

6. Fasten the shut-off valve to cold water a pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure outlet

end is securely in the 1/4dnch drilled hole and the washer is under the pipe

clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and

evenly so the washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten or you may

crush the copper tubing, especially if sort (coiled) copper tubing is used. Now

you are ready to connect the copper tubing.

7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut onto the copper tubing as

shown. Insert end of the tubing into outlet end squarely as far as it will go.

Screw compression nut onto the outlet end with an adjustable wrench. Do not

over tighten.

8. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn ON main

water supply. Flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve

on the water pipe. Coil the copper tubing as shown below.

could clog the screen of the

refrigerator's water valve. Install Clamp

the filter in the water line near the

refrigerator. 1/4"

1 Remove the plastic flexible cap Compression

' Nut

from the water valve.

2. Place the compression nut and 1/4"

ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of the Tubing

tubing as shown.

3. Insert the end of the copper tubing into the connection as far as possible. While

holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.

Refrigerator

Connection

Tighten any connections that leak.

• Plug In the Refrigerator

Arrange the coil of copper tubing behind the refrigerator so it does not vibrate

against the back of the refrigerator or against the wall. Push the refrigerator

back to the wall.

• Start the Icemaker

Set the icemaking stop switch to the ON position The icemaker will not begin

to operate until it reaches its operating temperature of 15 °F (-9 °C). It will then

begin operation automatically if the icemaking stop switch is in the ON

position.

• The automatic icemaker makes 8 cubes at a time, 120/150 pieces per day.

But these quantities may vary according to circumstance, including ambient

temperature, door openings, freezer load.etc.

• The Icemaker stops when the bin is full.

When Icemaker

Does Not Operate

Propedy

/_ CAUTION

Ice is clumped together

• When ice is clumped together, take the ice clumps out of the ice storage bin,

break them into small pieces, and then place them into the ice storage bin

again.

• When the icemaker produces too small or clumped ice, the amount or water

supplied to the ice maker must be adjusted. Contact the service center.

• If ice is not used frequently, it may clump together.

Power failure

• Water may drop into the freezer compartment. Take the ice storage bin out and

discard all the ice. Dry the bin and replace it.

The unit is newly installed

• It takes about 12 hours for a newly installed refrigerator to make ice.

The first iceand water may include particles or odor from the feed water pipeor

reed water box. Throw away the first few batches of ice. This is also necessary irthe

refrigerator has not been used for a long time.

Never store beverage cans or other roods in ice storage bin for the purpose or rapid

cooling. Such actions may damage the automatic ice maker.

Never remove the icemaker cover.

Ice may pile upjust around the icemaker causing the icemaker to think that the ice

storage bin isfull. Shake the bin occasionally to cause the iceto settle.

Ir discolored ice is dispensed, contact an Authorized Service Center immediately.

Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected.
