Installation instructions
[] CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE
REFRIGERATOR
NOTES:
Befi)re making the connection to the refligerator,
be sure the refligerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
If your refligerator does not have a water fiher,
we recommend installing one. If your water
supply has sand or particles that could clog the
screen of the refligerator's water valve. Install it in
the water line near the refligerator. If using GE
SmartConnect Refligerator Tubing kit, you will
need an additional tube (WX08X10002) to
connect the fiher. Do not cut plastic tube to
install fiher.
Some models have the refligerator connection at
the end of robing located outside the compressor
compartment access cover. On other models the
compressor compartment access cover must be
removed in order to access the refligerator
connection at the water valve.
On mr)dels using the refligeratirm crmnectirm at
the water valve, remove the plastic flexible cap.

Place the compression nut and terrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown. On the GE
SmartConnect TM Refligerator Tubing kit, the nuts
are aheady assembled to the robing.
Insert the end of the tubing into the water valve
_onne_tion as far as possible. While holding the
tubing, tighten the fitting.
For plastic tubing flom a GE SmartConnecff v
Refligerator Tubing kit, insert the molded end
of the tubing into the refligerator connection and
tighten the compression nut until it is hand tight,
then tighten one additional turn _dth a wrench.
Overtightening may cause leaks.
Fasten the tubing intr) the clamp provided to hold it
in a vertk al pr)sitirm. You may need to pry open the
_lamp.
