Before Installing The Water Supply
Line
Automatic ice makers are optional accesso‐
ries that you may install in most models at
any time. Visit ConservatorAppliances.com
for information about Ice Maker Kit 117000.
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, which can cause
death or severe personal injury, disconnect
the appliance from the electrical power be‐
fore connecting a water supply line to the ap‐
pliance.
CAUTION!
To avoid property damage:
• User stainless steel braided tubing for the
water supply line. Do not use water sup‐
ply tubing made of 1/4" plastic. Plastic
tubing greatly increases the potential for
water leaks, and the manufacturer will not
be responsible for any damage if you use
plastic tubing for the supply line.
• Do not install water supply tubing in areas
where temperatures fall below freezing.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener
can damage the ice maker. If the ice mak‐
er is connected to soft water, ensure that
the softener is maintained and working
properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure your water supply line connections
comply with all local plumbing codes.
You will need
• Basic tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade
screwdriver, and Phillips™ screwdriver.
• Access to a household cold water line with
water pressure between 30 and 100 psi.
• A water supply line made of stainless steel
tubing. To determine the length of tubing
needed, measure the distance from the ice
maker inlet valve at the back of the
appliance to your cold water pipe. Then add
approximately 6 ft (1.8 m) to ensure you
can move the appliance for cleaning.
• 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 fitting or use
thread seal tape.
NOTE
Check with your local building authority for
recommendations on water lines and associ‐
ated materials prior to installing your new re‐
frigerator. Depending on your local/state
building codes, Conservator recommends:
• for homes with existing valves its Smart
Choice® water line kit 5304437642 with a
6 ft stainless steel water line.
• for homes without an existing valve, we
recommend Smart Choice® water line kit
5304493869 with a 6 ft polyline waterline.
Please refer to ConservatorAppliances.com
for more information.
Installing the water supply line
NOTE
These instructions do not cover after market
ice maker installation. Instructions in after
market ice maker kit should be used.
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 flush
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. Depending on the tubing 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 (1/4" / 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.
• Braided flexible stainless steel tubing -
The nut is already assembled on the
tubing. Slide nut onto valve inlet and
finger tighten nut onto valve. Tighten
another half turn with a wrench; do not
over tighten.
5. With steel clamp and screw, secure water
supply line to rear panel of the appliance.
