Before You Begin

This water line installation is not covered by the 
refrigerator warranty. Follow these instructions 
carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water 
damage.

Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in 
house plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator 
parts and can lead to water leakage or flooding. 
Call a qualified plumber to correct water hammer 
before installing the water supply line to the 
refrigerator.

If you use your refrigerator before connecting 
the water line, make sure the icemaker power 
switch is in the OFF (O) position.

 

CAUTION

Do not install the icemaker tubing in 
areas where temperatures fall below 
freezing.

 

CAUTION

To prevent burns and product damage, 
only connect the refrigerator water line to 
a cold water supply.
