Connecting the water supply line to the refrigerator There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection. You may find these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store. Use Copper Tubing • ¼" copper tubing • ¼" compression nut (1pc) • Ferrule (2pc) Use Plastic Tubing • ¼" plastic tubing → Molded end (Bulb) • ¼" compression nut (1pc) Refrigerator Compression Nut (1/4") (Assembled) Plastic Tubing (Supplied) Compression Fitting (Assembled) Ferrule (Not supplied) Bulb Compression nut (B) (1/4") (Not supplied) Copper tubing or Plastic tubing (B) (Not supplied) (Not supplied) Household water line 1. Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fitting. -- If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut ( B ) (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not supplied) as shown. -- If you are using plastic tubing ( B ), insert the molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing ( B ) into the compression fitting. CAUTION Do not use plastic tubing ( B ) without the molded end (Bulb). 2. Tighten the compression nut ( B ) onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( B ). 3. Turn the water on and check for any leaks inside the refrigerator, around the water filter, and in any connection areas. If you find water drops or leaks, turn off the main water supply. If the leaks are in the connection areas, check the connections and, if necessary, tighten. If there are leaks in the refrigerator, check the water filter and confirm it is in the locked position. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks again. 4. Plug in the refrigerator. 5. Flush 3 gallons of water through the filter before drinking or using the water from the refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.) This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines. To flush, press the Water button, and then press a large glass or cup against the water dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it into the kitchen sink after it is filled, and then repeat. Additional flushing may be required in some households. 6. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter. • After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2 buckets of ice the ice maker makes to ensure all impurities have been removed from the water line. • Only connect the water line to a drinkable water source. • If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4" of the plastic tubing to make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection. • You can test the water line quickly using a paper cup. Under normal conditions, the water dispenser can fill a 5.75 oz. (170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds. English - 20 DA68-02976A-02.indb 20 14. 4. 23. �� 8:53
