HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY
Donot, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safeW, this appfiance must be properly grounded.
_: The power cord of this appliance is equipped Mth a 3-prong (grounding) plug
which mates Mth a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard fl'om this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded.
::_::If the otlflet is a standard 2-prong Otlflet, it is your personal responsibili_' and
obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual electi{cal outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating plate,
_: This provides the best pe_l'om_ance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a

Yi::Do not add ice fl'om trays or bags to tile storage bin. It
may not crush or dispeI{se well.
i;_?Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses.

chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, poke it
through with a wooden spoon.
i;_?Beverages and fl)ods should not be quick-chilled in the
ice storage bin. Cans, bottles or fl)od packages in tile
storage bin may cause the icemaker or auger to jam.
i;_?To kee I) dispensed ice fl'om missing tile glass, put tile
glass close to, but not touching, tile dispenser opening.

Installation Instructions
INSTALLING THE WATER LINE
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Recomn_ended copper water supply kits are _4UX8X2,
WX8X3 or _X8X4, depending on the amom_t of
tubing you need. Approved plastic water sui_ply lines are
GE Smart(:onnect _'_Refl_igerator Tubing (_X08X10002,
WX08X10006, WX08X10015 and X43X08X10025).
When connecting yore" refl'igerator to a GE Reverse
Osmosis Water System, the only approved installation
is with a GE RVKit. For other revei_e osmosis water
systems, tollow the manufi_ctm'er's recommendations.
If the water sui)ply to the reti'igerator is ti'om a Revelse
Osmosis X4'ater Filtration System AND the refrigerator
also has a water filtei; use the reti'igerator's filter bypass
plug. Using the refrigerator's water filtration cartridge in
conjunction with the RO filter can result in hollow ice
cubes and slower water flow fl'om the water dispenser.
This water line installation is not warranted by the
refrigerator or icemaker manufi_cturer. Follo_' these
instructions carefifllv to minimize the risk of expensive
water damage.
_'ater hammer (water banging in the pipes) in house
plmnbing can cause damage to reflJgerator parts and
lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualified
phunber to correct water hammer before installing
the water supply line to the refl_igeratm:
To prevent b/iYns and prodtlct damage, do not hook
up the water line to the hot water line.
If wm use your refrigerator betore connecting the water
line, make'sm'e the icemaker power switch is in the OFF
position.
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where
temperatm'es tall below freezing.
All installations ulust be in accordance with local
pltmfl)ing code reqtfirements.
WARNING - Co.u,e,ttop.t ,ble,, ,te,

WHAT YOU WILL NEED
Copper or GE SmaxtCommcf _"Refrigerator Tubing
kit, l/4" outer diameter to connect the refi'igerator
to the water supply. If using COl)per, be sm'e both
ends of the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much tubing you need: measure
the distance ti'om the water wflve on the back of the
refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Be sm'e there is
sufficient extra tubing to allow the refl'igerator to move
out fl'om the wall alier installation.
GE SlnartConnect _''Refl'igerator Tubing Kits are
available in the ti_llowing lengths:
2' (0.6 m) - WX08X10002
6' (1.8 m) - _X08X10006
15' (4.6 m) - WX08X10015
25' (7.6 m) - WX08X10025
WHAT YOU WILL NEED (CONT.)
NOTE: The tufty GE approved plastic tubing is that
supplied in GE SmaxtCom_ect TM Refrigerator Tubing
kits. Do not use m_y other plastic water supply line
because the line is under pressure at all times. Certain
types of plastic will crack or rupture with age and
cause water damage to your home.
A GE water supply kit (containing tubing, shutoff
wflve and fittings listed below) is awfilable at extra
cost from your dealer or ti'om Parts and Accessories,
800.626.2002.
A cold water supply. The water pressm'e must be
between 20 and 120 p.s.i. (1.4-8.2 bar) on models
without a water filter and between 40 and 120 p.s.i.
(2.8-8.2 bar) on models with a water filter.
Power drill.
1/2" or adjustable wrench.
Straight and Phillips blade screwdriver.
Two 1/4" outer diameter compression nuts m_d
2 ferrules (sleeves)--to connect the COl)per tubing
to the shutoff wflve and the refl'igerator water wflve.
OR
If wm are using a GE Smart(_onnect TM Refl'igerator
Tubing kit, the necessary fittings are preassembled to
the tubing.
If wmr existing COl)per water line has a flared fitting
at the end, you will need an adapter (available at
i)lmnbing supply stores) to connect the water line to
the refrigerator OR you can ctlt off the flared fitting
with a tube cutter and then use a compression
fitting. Do not cut fl_rmed end from GE
Smart(:onnect TM Refl'igerator tubing.
Shutoff valve to connect to the cold water line.
The shutoff wflve should have a water inlet with a
minimmn inside diameter of 5/32" at the point of
connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type
shutoff wflves are included in many water supi)ly kits.
Before pro'chasing, make sm'e a saddle-Vpe wflve
complies with yore" local phunbing codes. Install the
shutoff wflve on the nearest ti'equently used drinking
water line.

Installation Instructions
[] SHUT OFF MAIN WATER SUPPLY
[] DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
Choose a location for the valve that is easily
accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a
vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect
into a horizontal water pipe, make tile 'connection
to the top or side, rather than at the bottom,
to aw)id drawing off any sediment fl'om the
water pipe.
Drill a l/4" hole in the water pipe (even if using a
self:piercing wflve) using a shari_ bit. Remove any
bur_ resulting fl'om drilling the hole in the pipel
Take care not to allow water to drain into the drill,
Failure to drill a l/4" hole may result in reduced
ice production or smaller cubes.
[] FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE
Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with
the pipe clamp,
Tighten the clamp screws tmtil the sealing washer
begins to swell.

If your refligerator does not have a water filter,
we recommend installing one if vour water supply

the refTigerator's water wflve. Install it in the
water line near the refligerator. If using a GE
