water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
• Awatersupplylinemadeof¼inch(6.4mm)
OD, copper or stainless steel tubing. To
determine the length of tubing needed,
measure the distance from the ice maker
inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator to
your cold water pipe. Then add approximately
7 feet (2.1 meters), so the refrigerator can be
moved out for cleaning (as shown).
• Ashutoffvalvetoconnectthewatersupply
line to your household water system. DO
NOTuseaself-piercingtypeshutoffvalve.
• Donotreusecompressionttingoruse
thread seal tape.
• Acompressionnutandferrule(sleeve)for
connecting a copper water supply line to the
ice maker inlet valve.
To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet
Valve
1. Disconnect refrigerator from electric power
source.
2. Place end of water supply line into sink or
bucket.TurnONwatersupplyandush
supply line until water is clear. Turn OFF
water supply at shutoff valve.
3. Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet
and discard cap.
4. If you use copper tubing - Slide brass
compression nut, then ferrule (sleeve) onto
water supply line. Push water supply line
intowatervalveinletasfarasitwillgo(¼
inch/6.4mm).Slideferrule(sleeve)intovalve
inlet and finger tighten compression nut
onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a
wrench;DONOTovertighten.SeeFigure1.
If you use stainless steel tubing - The nut
and ferrule are already assembled on the
tubing. Slide compression nut onto valve
inlet and finger tighten compression nut
onto valve. Tighten another half turn with a
wrench;DONOTovertighten.SeeFigure2.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water
supply line (copper tubing only) to rear panel
of refrigerator as shown.
6. Coilexcesswatersupplyline(coppertubing
only), about 2½ turns, behind refrigerator
as shown and arrange coils so they do not
vibrate or wear against any other surface.
7. TurnONwatersupplyatshutoffvalveand
tighten any connections that leak.
8. Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power
source.
9. To turn ice maker on, lower wire signal arm

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, which can cause
death or severe personal injury, disconnect
the refrigerator from electrical power before
connecting a water supply line to the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line connections comply with
all local plumbing codes.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• CopperorStainlessSteelbraidedtubing
is recommended for the water supply line.
Water supply tubing made of ¼ inch plastic
is not recommended to be used. Plastic
tubing greatly increases the potential for
water leaks, and the manufacturer will not
be responsible for any damage if plastic
tubing is used for the supply line.
• DONOTinstallwatersupplytubinginareas
where temperatures fall below freezing.
•Donotreusecompressionttingoruse
thread seal tape.
• Chemicalsfromamalfunctioningsoftener
can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker
is connected to soft water, ensure that
the softener is maintained and working
properly.
NOTE
Check with your local building authority for
recommendations on water lines and associated
materials prior to installing your new refrigerator.
Depending on your local/state building codes,
Electrolux recommends for homes with existing
valves its Smart Choice® water line kit 5305513409
(witha6ft.StainlessSteelWaterLine)and
for homes without an existing valve, Electrolux
recommends its Smart Choice water® line kit
5305510264(witha20ft.CopperWaterLinewith
self-tapping saddle valve). Please refer to www.
