Connect Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the
International Plumbing Code and any local codes and
ordinances.
Use copper tubing or Whirlpool supply line, Part Number
8212547RP, and check for leaks.
Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain
above freezing.
Tools Needed
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation:
Flat-blade screwdriver
⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
¹⁄₄" nut driver
NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve
which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.
Connecting the Water Line
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
2. Using a ¹⁄₂" copper supply line with a quarter-turn shutoff
valve or the equivalent, connect the ice maker as shown.
NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the ice maker a
minimum ¹⁄₂" diameter home supply line is recommended.
3. Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing. Use ¹⁄₄"
(6.35 mm) O.D. soft copper tubing for the cold water supply.
Ensure that you have the proper length needed for the
job. Be sure both ends of the copper tubing are cut
square.
Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on copper
tubing as shown. Insert end of tubing into outlet end
squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto
outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.
4. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and
turn on main water supply and flush out tubing until water is
clear. Turn off shutoff valve on the water pipe.
IMPORTANT: Always drain the water line before making the
final connection to the inlet of the water valve to avoid
possible water valve malfunction.
5. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water line inlet which is
located on the back of the ice maker cabinet as shown.
Leave a coil of copper tubing to allow the ice maker to be
pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.
Rear View
6. Remove and discard the short, black plastic tube from the
end of the water line inlet.
7. Thread the nut onto the end of the tubing. Tighten the nut by
hand. Then tighten it with a wrench two more turns. Do not
overtighten.
NOTE: To avoid rattling, be sure the copper tubing does not
touch the cabinet’s side wall or other parts inside the cabinet.
