STEP 2 MOVE THE REFRIGERATOR
INTO THE HOUSE
• Re-use the corner posts from the packaging to
protect stainless steel models. Run the appliance
dolly straps over the posts and under the handles.
• Leave the protective film on the refrigerator until
installation is complete. IMPORTANT: Never lift the
refrigerator by the handle or push against the grille
panel; this could cause damage or misalignment.
• Avoid laying the unit on its back or side to prevent
sealed system restrictions.
NOTE: 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.
Shut off the main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line
of water.
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water
valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet.
The shut-off valve should be located where it will be
easily accessible.
• Turn on the main water supply and flush debris.
Run about a quart of water through the tubing into a
bucket. Shut off the water supply at the shut-off valve.
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in
many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure
a saddle type valve complies with your local plumbing
codes.
