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

Important Facts About Your Dispenser

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.

Backed-up ice can jam tile chute or cause tile door in tile

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.

>_Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you

selected Cubed.This hal)pens oc(-asionallv when a fray

cubes haxe been left in tile crushe_:

>_ _Mter crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from

tile chute.

i;_?Sometimes a small motmd of snow will titan on tile door

in the ice chute, This condition is nomml and usually

()cctu_ when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly:

Tile snow will eventually e\:q)orate.

i;_;:Tile fi_st glass of water dispensed may be wam/er than

tile fi)llowing ones. This is nomml.

>: Dispensed water is not ice cold. For colder water; simply

add crushed ice or cubes before dispensing water:

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,

supply only.

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.

• 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.

[] ROUTE THE TUBING

Route tile tubing between the cold water line and

the refligerator,

Route tile tubing through a hole drilled in the wall

or floor (behind the refligerator or a(!jacent base

cabinet) as close to the wall as possible.

NOTE: Be sure there is sutticient extra tubing

to allow tile refligerator to move out fl'oln the wall

[] CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE

Place tile compression nut and teHule (sleeve) for

(-oI)per tubing onto the end of the tubing and

connect it to the shutoIt valve.

Make sm'e the tubing is flflly inserted into the wflve.

Tighten the compression ntlt secm'ely.

• If your refligerator does not have a water filter,

we recommend installing one if vour water supply

has sand or particles that could ("log the screen of

the refTigerator's water wflve. Install it in the

water line near the refligerator. If using a GE

SmartConnect TM Refligerator Tubing kit, you

will need an additional robe (WX08X10009)

to connect the filter. Do not cut plastic tube

to install filter.
