Install Anti-Tip Boards
IMPORTANT:
■
The solid soffit must be within 1" (2.5 cm) maximum above
the refrigerator. If the solid soffit is higher than 1" (2.5 cm) or
one is not available, prevent the refrigerator from tipping
during use.
■
It is recommended that board(s) be installed before the
refrigerator is installed.
■
Board(s) must be long enough to fully cover the width of the
compressor cover.
■
Locate the board(s) so the bottom surface(s) of the board(s)
is(are) 84" (213 cm) from the floor.
■
During installation, raise the refrigerator up so there is
¹⁄₄
"
(6.35 mm) maximum between the top of the refrigerator and
the bottom of the anti-tip board(s). Do not crush the
condenser cover when raising the rear leveling legs.
To Install Anti-tip Boards
1. Mark the stud locations on rear wall 80" to 90" (203 cm to
229 cm) above floor.
2. Securely attach one or two 2" x 4" x 32" (5 cm x 10 cm x
81 cm) boards to wall studs behind refrigerator. Use six
#8 x 3" (7.6 mm) (or longer) wood screws. The wood screws
must be screwed into the studs at least 1½" (3.8 cm). The
board(s) must overlap the compressor cover.
Connect the Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line
is connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
Connect to Water Line
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3. Locate a ½" to 1
¹⁄₄
" (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
■
Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
■
Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure
from the connection on the lower left rear of refrigerator to the
water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use
¹⁄₄
"
(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure
both ends of copper tubing are cut square.
