PREPARING INSTALL WATER LINE
• A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker operation. The water pressure must be between 40 and 120
p.s.i. (275-827 kPa).
5RXWHƎFP2'FRSSHURU6PDUW&RQQHFW
™
plastic tubing between the house cold water line and the water
connection location.
• Tubing should be long enough to extend to the front of the enclosure.
• Water line can enter an opening through the floor or back wall.
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water valve and cold water supply in the home.
NOTE:
• It is recommended that the water shut-off valve be placed in a location that is easily accessible. We do not advise
placing it behind the unit because of access difficulties. If it is necessary to install the valve behind the unit, it must
be located in the area shown on Design Guide.
• Saddle type shut-off valves are included in many water supply kits, but are not recommended for this application.
• The only GEA-approved plastic tubing is supplied in the SmartConnect
™
Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any
other plastic water supply line because the line is under pressure at all times. Other types of plastic may crack or
rupture with age and cause water damage to your home. See water line kits on Assessories Page.
• Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and use
is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.
Electrical Specifications
• A 115-volt, 60-Hz., 15- or 20-amp power supply is required. An individual properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended.
• Install a properly grounded 3-prong electrical receptacle recessed into the back wall. Electrical must be located on
rear wall as shown in the Cabinet Dimensions section.
NOTE: GFI (ground fault interrupter) is not recommended.
