CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
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.
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, Frigidaire
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, Frigidaire recommends its Smart Choice
®
water
line kit 5305510264 (with a 20 ft. Copper Water Line
with self-tapping saddle valve). Please refer to
www.frigidaire.com/store for more information.
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.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning water
softener can damage the ice maker. If your
home has a water softening system, ensure the
softener is maintained and working properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that your water supply line connections comply
with all local plumbing codes.
Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will
Need:
• BasicTools:adjustablewrench,at-bladescrewdriver,
and Phillips
TM
screwdriver
• Access to a household cold water line with water
pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
• A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4 mm) 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re-use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.
