STEP 9   REPLACE FRESH FOOD DOORS
 STEP 10   INSTALL WATER LINE
Recommended copper water supply kits are WX8X2, WX8X3 
or WX8X4, depending on the amount of tubing you need. 
Approved plastic water supply lines are GE SmartConnect™ 
Refrigerator Tubing (WX08X10006, WX08X10015 and 
WX08X10025).
When connecting your refrigerator to a GE Reverse Osmosis 
Water System, the only approved installation is with a GE 
RVKit. For other reverse osmosis water systems, follow the 
manufacturer’s recommendations. 
If the water supply to the refrigerator is from a Reverse 
Osmosis Water Filtration System (RO)AND the refrigerator 
also has a water filter, use the refrigerator’s filter bypass 
plug. Using the refrigerator’s water filtration cartridge in 
conjunction with an RO water filter can result in hollow ice 
cubes.
This water line installation is not warranted by the 
refrigerator or ice maker manufacturer. Follow these 
instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive 
water damage.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in house 
plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and 
lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualified plumber 
to correct water hammer before installing the water 
supply line to the refrigerator.
To prevent burns and product damage, do not hook up 
the water line to the hot water line.
Do not install the ice maker tubing in areas where 
temperatures fall below freezing.
When using any electrical device (such as a power drill) 
during installation, be sure the device is double insulated 
or grounded in a manner to prevent the hazard of electric 
shock, or is battery powered.
All installations must be in accordance with local 
plumbing code requirements.
•  Copper or GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing kit, 
1/4” outer diameter to connect the refrigerator to the 
water supply. If using copper, be sure both ends of the 
tubing are cut square.
To determine how much tubing you need:  
measure the distance from the water valve on the back of 
the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Be sure there is 
sufficient extra tubing to allow the refrigerator to move out 
from the wall after installation.
GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing Kits are available 
in the following lengths:
6’ (1.8 m) 
– WX08X10006
15’ (4.6 m) 
– WX08X10015
25’ (7.6 m) 
– WX08X10025

Underside OF
Fresh Food Door
If door cannot be installed at 90° follow steps below:
1. If space or model limits opening door to less than 180°, then:
     a) Remove door, carefully turn door upside down.
     b) Check alignment of door closure mechanism shaft on
         underside of door. The flats on the shaft should  
         correspond to alignment tab on plastic ring or mark 
         on bottom end cap.
     c) If shaft is not aligned to tab/mark, using 5/32” Allen  
         wrench, rotate door closure mechanism shaft  
         counterclockwise for right door and clockwise for left  
         door. Then align flat with tab/mark.
     d) Install the door at 90°.
