Connecting Ice Maker to Water Supply

Before Installing The Water Supply Line, You Will Need:

• Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, ﬂat blade

screwdriver, and Phillips screwdriver

• Access to a household cold water line with water

pressure between 30 and 100 psi.

• A water supply line preferably made of Braided

Stainless Steel or Braided Poly with integral ﬁttings

for connection to the refrigerator and the valve at

the wall. If the home has a ¼" copper line, and the

owner prefers to keep the copper line, a compres-

sion ﬁtting ferrule (sleeve) and nut should be

replaced each time the ﬁtting is reused.

NOTE

Check with your local building authority for

recommendations on water lines and associated

materials prior to installing your new refrigerator.

Depending on your local/state building codes,

Frigidaire recommends for homes with existing

valves its Smart Choice®water line kit 5304437642

(with a 6' Stainless Steel Water Line) and for homes

without an existing valve, Frigidaire recommends its

Smart Choice®water line kit 5304493869 (with a 6'

Polyline Waterline). Please refer to Frigidaire.com.

WARNING

To avoid electric shock, which can cause death or

severe personal injury, disconnect the refrigerator

from electrical power before connecting a water

supply line to the refrigerator.

CAUTION

To Avoid Property Damage:

• Stainless Steel braided tubing is recommended

for the water supply line. Water supply tubing

made of ¼" plastic is not recommended to be

used. Plastic tubing greatly increases the poten-

tial for water leaks, and the manufacturer will not

be responsible for any damage.

• DO NOT install water supply tubing in areas

where temperatures fall below freezing.

• Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can

damage the ice maker. If the ice maker is con-

nected to soft water, ensure that the softener is

maintained and working properly.

IMPORTANT

Ensure that your water supply line connections

comply with all local plumbing codes.

NOTE

Water lines should be long enough to all ow the

refrigerator to roll forward for cleaning or service.

Typically, 6'. length works well for braided Stainless

or Poly kits. A ¼" copper line should be longer to

coil extra length behind the refrigerator so movement

will not kink the copper line.

Connecting Ice Maker to Water Supply

To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet Valve

1. Disconnect refrigerator from an electrical

power source.

2. Place the end of water supply line into the sink or

a bucket. Turn ON the water supply and ﬂush the

supply line until the water is clear. Turn OFF the

water supply at the shuto valve.

3. Remove the plastic cap from water valve inlet and

discard the cap.

4. If you use copper tubing, slide the brass com-

pression nut and then ferrule (sleeve) onto the

water supply line. Push the water supply line into

the water valve inlet as far as it will go (¼" / 6.4

mm). Slide the ferrule (sleeve) into the valve inlet

and ﬁnger tighten the compression nut onto the

valve. Tighten another ½ turn with a wrench; DO

NOT overtighten. See below.

If you use braided ﬂexible stainless steel tubing,

the nut is already assembled on the tubing. Slide

the nut onto the valve inlet and ﬁnger tighten the

nut onto the valve. Tighten another ½turn with a

wrench; DO NOT overtighten. See below.

6. With the steel clamp and the screw, secure the

water supply line to the rear panel of the refrig-

erator as shown.

7. To turn the ice maker on, press the ice maker’s On/

O power switch so the LED is steadily illuminated.

Ice Service

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, mini-

mal ice will be produced during the ﬁrst 24 hours of

operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the

ice maker to cycle 2 or 3 times before making a full

tray of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately 1

to 2 days to ﬁll the ice bin.

New plumbing connections may cause the ﬁrst pro-

duction of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd

ﬂavor. Discard ice made during the ﬁrst 24 hours.

Turning Your Ice Maker On

After the plumbing connections have been

completed, the water supply valve must be opened.

Place the ice bin under the ice maker, pushing it as

far back as possible. Press the ice maker’s On/O

button. The button will illuminate in green when the

ice maker is On.

Turning Your Ice Maker O

To stop the ice maker, press the ice maker’s On/O

button. The ice maker also stops producing

ice automatically when the bin is full, and then it

resumes when the level in the bin drops.

IMPORTANT

To ensure proper function for your ice maker, hook

up water supply immediately or turn ice maker OFF.

If the ice maker is on and the water supply is not

connected, the water valve can make a loud chat-

tering noise.

Ice Production: What To Expect

The ice maker will produce about 2 pounds of ice

every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.

Note: You can make more ice by setting the freezer

to a colder setting. Ice is produced at a rate of 10

cubes every 100 to 160 minutes.

Ice Maker Tips

CAUTION

Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.

• Wash ice container in warm water with mild

detergent. Rinse well and dry.

• Stop the ice maker when cleaning the freezer or

for short vacations.

• If the ice maker will be turned o for a long

period of time, turn the water supply valve to

the closed position.

Remember that water quality determines your ice

quality. If the water source uses a water softener,

ensure that the softener is maintained and working

properly. Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener

can damage the ice maker.

CAUTION

Do Not place the ice container in your dishwasher.
