1.
Slip the compression nut through the supplied
plastic tubing(A).
2.
Tighten the compression nut (A) onto the 6.35mm
compression fitting.
-
If you are using copper tubing, slip the
compression nut (B)(not included) and ferrule
(not included) on copper tubing (not included) as
shown.
-
If you are using plastic tubing (B), insert the
molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing (B)into
the compression fitting. Do not use without the
molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing (B).
3.
Tighten the compression nut (B)onto the
compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the
compression nut (B).
4.
Turn water on and check for any leakage.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water
source. If you have to repair or disassemble the
water line, cut off 6.35mm of the plastic tubing to
make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.
However, it does not sterilize or destroy
microorganisms. You may need to purchase a
water purifying system to do that. In order for the
ice-maker to operate properly, a water pressure of
138~862 Kpa is required.
Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) cup
can be fi lled in 10 seconds. If the Refrigerator
is installed in an area with low water pressure
(below 138Kpa), you can install a booster pump to
compensate for the low pressure.
Make sure the water storage tank inside the
Refrigerator is properly fi lled. To do this, press the
water dispenser lever until the water runs from the
water outlet.
Water line installation kits are available at extra cost
from your dealer.
We recommend using a water supply kit that
contains copper tubing.
The new hose-sets supplied with the
appliance are to be used and that old
hose-sets should not be reused.
Check the accessory list below.
