English Connecting the Water Supply Line Note: It is consumer's responsibility, if not using a licensed plumber, to follow your local plumbing codes. Install the "shut off" valve on the water pipe. 1. Turn off the main water supply pipe. Turn on the nearest tap until the water pipe is cleaned completely. 2. Choose the position of the valve. Choose a position for the valve that is easy to install and reach. It is recommended to install the valve on the side of a vertical water pipe. It is better to connect the valve to a level water pipe on the upside of the water pipe, not the downside, so the sediment may flow out from the water pipe. 3. Drilling the "shut off" valve hole: Drill a 1/8" diameter hole on the water pipe using a sharp drill. Clean off burrs left on the water pipe by the drill. Use caution to prevent any water flowing into the drill. 4. Tightening the "shut off" valve: Tighten the valve on the cold water pipe using a pipe nip. Follow the rules specified in the 248CMR of Massachusetts Federal Piping Standard. Saddle-backed valves are unlawful in Massachusetts and forbidden. Please consult a plumber if you are unsure of the correct method to install the valve. 5. Tightening the pipe tip: Tighten the bolts of the pipe tip until the closing circle begins to expand. Don't let the bolts of the pipe tip be too tight, otherwise the water pipe is pressed flat and will cause a leak. 6. Positioning the water line to the refrigerator: Position the water line between the cold water pipe and the refrigerator. Drill a hole in the wall or on the floor that is near the wall and the location for the fridge. Add extra length for the water supply line, about 8 feet (2.4 meters) and make three circles with the diameter of each circle about 1 foot, so there is extra line to move the fridge in and out for cleaning (unit away from the wall). 9

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY LINE
Note: It is consumer's responsibility, if not
using a licensed plumber, to follow
your local plumbing codes.
Install the “shut off” valve on the water pipe.
1. Turn off the main water supply pipe. Turn on the
nearest tap until the water pipe is cleaned
completely.
2. Choose the position of the valve.
Choose a
position for the valve that is easy to install and
reach.
It is recommended to install the valve on the
side of a vertical water pipe.
It is better to connect
the valve to a level water pipe on the upside of the
water pipe, not the downside, so the sediment may
flow out from the water pipe.
3. Drilling the “shut off” valve hole:
Drill a 1/8”
diameter hole on the water pipe using a sharp drill.
Clean off burrs left on the water pipe by the drill.
Use caution to prevent any water flowing into
the drill.
4. Tightening the “shut off” valve:
Tighten the valve
on the cold water pipe using a pipe nip.
Follow
the rules specified in the 248CMR of Massachusetts
Federal Piping Standard.
Saddle-backed valves are unlawful in
Massachusetts and forbidden.
Please consult a
plumber if you are unsure of the correct method to
install the valve.
5. Tightening the pipe tip:
Tighten the bolts of the
pipe tip until the closing circle begins to expand.
Don’t let the bolts of the pipe tip be too tight,
otherwise the water pipe is pressed flat and
will cause a leak.
6. Positioning the water line to the refrigerator:
Position the water line between the cold water pipe
and the refrigerator.
Drill a hole in the wall or on
the floor that is near the wall and the location for
the fridge.
Add extra length for the water supply
line, about 8 feet (2.4 meters) and make three
circles with the diameter of each circle about 1
foot, so there is extra line to move the fridge in and
out for cleaning (unit away from the wall).
