NOTES:
Before making the connection to the refrigerator,
be sure the refrigerator power cord is not
plugged into the wall outlet.
We recommend installing a water filter if your
water supply has sand or particles that could clog
the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install
it in the water line near the refrigerator. If using
GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kit, you
will need an additional tube (WX08X10002) to
connect the filter. Do not cut plastic tube to
install filter.
Remove the screws holding the right side of the
access cover. Fold back the cover.
Remove the plastic flexible cap
from the water valve
(refrigerator connection).
Place the compression nut and
ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of
the tubing as shown. On GE
SmartConnect
Refrigerator
Tubing kit, the nuts are already
assembled to the tubing.
Insert the end of the tubing into the water valve
connection as far as possible. While holding the
tubing, tighten the fitting.
For plastic tubing from a GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kit, insert the molded end
of the tubing into the water valve connection and
tighten compression nut until it is hand-tight;
then tighten one additional turn with a wrench.
Overtightening may cause leaks.
Fasten the tubing into the clamp provided to hold
it in a vertical position. You may need to pry open
the clamp.
