#2 How to install the refrigerator water supply line?
To install the refrigerator water supply line, please follow the guide below.
Please be advised that full installation instructions are included in the user manual for each model and these should be adhered to.
The warranty for your refrigerator does not cover the water line installation. The water line installation will be performed at your own costs unless the installation fee is included in the retailer’s price. Samsung takes no responsibility for the water line installation. If water leaks occur, contact the installer of the water line. Therefore, it is strongly recommended for the water line to be connected by a qualified technician.
Note:
Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a 6 mm compression nut.
Connecting to the Water Supply Line
1 First, shut off the main water supply.
2 Locate the nearest cold drinking water line and install the pipe clamp (A) and the shut-off valve (B).
3 Connect the water line installation kit (C) to the shut-off valve (B).
Note:
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water source.
If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4“ of the plastic tubing to make sure that you get a snug, leak-free connection.
When flushing the water lines for the first time, water will not dispense immediately because air is in them.
You can test the water line by quickly using a paper cup.
Under normal conditions, the water dispenser can fill a 5.75 oz (170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds.
If you have been holding the dispenser lever for over 3 minutes and water is not being dispensed, verify that the water supply valve is open and that power is being supplied to the unit.
Do not mount the water filter on any part of the refrigerator. This may damage the refrigerator.
