10 Connecting The Water Supply
About your refrigerator’s water supply
The automatic ice & water dispenser on your
refrigerator requires a permanent water supply
to function correctly. During installation, you
(or a service professional) establish this water
supply by connecting a copper tube from your
household water system to a valve at the rear of
the refrigerator.
You may have already followed the directions in
the Installation Instructions to connect the water
supply. This information is repeated here for future
reference if you need to relocate your refrigerator.
What you will need:
• Accesstoacoldwaterlinewithpressureof
30-100 psi. (System supplied with cold water
only.)
• Coppertubingwith¼inch(6.4mm)Outside
Diameter (OD). Length for this tubing is the
distance from the rear of the refrigerator to
your household water supply line plus seven
feet (2.1 meters).
• Ashut-offvalvefortheconnectionbetween
your household water line and the refrigerator
supply line.
Do not use a self-piercing shut-off valve.

Automatic Ice & Water Maker/Dispenser
Priming the water supply
system
Yourrefrigerator’swatersupplysystemincludes
several tubing lines, an advanced water filter,
a distribution valve bank, and a reserve tank to
ensure ample supply to the ice and water dispenser
at all times. This system needs to be completely
filled with water when first connected to an external
supply line.
To prime the water supply system:
Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding 1
a drinking glass against the water dispenser
paddle.
Keep the glass in this position until water 2
comes out of the dispenser. It may take
about 1½ minutes.
Continue dispensing water for about three 3
minutes to flush the system and plumbing
connections of any impurities (stopping to
empty the glass as necessary).
Ice maker operation & care
The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding
mechanism are located in the top of the freezer
compartment.Aftertherefrigeratorisinstalled
properly and has cooled for several hours, the
ice maker can produce ice within 24 hours. It can
completely fill an ice bin in about two days.
The ice maker produces four to six pounds of ice
every 24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice
is produced at a rate of eight cubes every 75 to 90
minutes.
Using the ice maker after installation
Before making ice for the first time, be sure to
primethewatersupplysystem.Airinnewplumbing
lines can result in two or three empty ice maker
cycles. Furthermore, if the system is not flushed,
the first ice cubes may be discolored or have an
odd flavor.

icemaker’sllvalvemaymakealoudchattering
noise when it attempts to operate without water.
CAUTION
For proper dispenser operation,
recommended water supply pressure
should fall between 30 psi and 100 psi.
Excessive pressure may cause water filter to
malfunction.
NOTE
The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm,
which automatically stops ice production when
the ice bin is full. This signal arm should not be
