

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 5305513409 (with a 6 ft. 

Stainless Steel Water Line) and for homes without an 

existing valve, Frigidaire recommends its Smart Choice 

water® line kit 5305510264 (with a 20 ft. Copper Water 

Line with self-tapping saddle valve).  Please refer to 

www.frigidaire.com/store for more information.

Ensure that your water supply line connections comply 

with all local plumbing codes.

After connecting the water supply, refer to “How to Prime 

the Water Supply System” for important information about 

priming an empty water supply system. 
Your refrigerator’s water supply system includes several tubing 

lines, a water filter, a water valve, and a water tank. To ensure

that your water dispenser works properly, this system must 

be completely filled with water when your refrigerator is first

connected to the household water supply line.

 •  Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flat-blade

screwdriver, and Phillips

TM

 screwdriver

 •  Access to a household cold water line with water

pressure between 30 and 100 psi.

 •  A water supply line made of ¼ inch (6.4mm) OD,

copper or stainless steel tubing. To determine the 

length of tubing needed, measure the distance 

from the ice maker inlet valve at the back of the 

refrigerator to your cold water pipe. Then add 

approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters), so the refrigerator 

can be moved out for cleaning (as shown). 

 •  A shutoff valve to connect the water supply line to

your household water system. DO NOT use a self-

piercing type shutoff valve.

 •  A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for connecting

a copper water supply line to the ice maker inlet valve.

To Connect Water Supply Line To Ice Maker Inlet Valve
  1.  Disconnect refrigerator from electric power source.
  2.  Place end of water supply line into sink or bucket. 

Turn ON water supply and flush supply line until

water is clear. Turn OFF water supply at shutoff valve.

  3.  Remove plastic cap from water valve inlet and 

discard cap.

  4.  If you use copper tubing - Slide brass compression 

nut, then ferrule (sleeve) onto water supply line. Push 

water supply line into water valve inlet as far as it will 

go (¼ inch/6.4 mm). Slide ferrule (sleeve) into valve

inlet and finger tighten compression nut onto valve.

Tighten another half turn with a wrench; DO NOT 

over tighten. See Figure 1.

 

  If you use stainless steel tubing - The nut and 

ferrule are already assembled on the tubing. Slide 

compression nut onto valve inlet and finger tighten

compression nut onto valve. Tighten another half turn 

with a wrench; DO NOT over tighten. See Figure 2.

  5.  With steel clamp and screw, secure water 

supply line (copper tubing only) to rear panel of 

refrigerator as shown. 

  6.  Coil excess water supply line (copper tubing only), 

about 2½ turns, behind refrigerator as shown and 

arrange coils so they do not vibrate or wear against 

any other surface. 

  7.  Turn ON water supply at shutoff valve and tighten 

any connections that leak.

  8.  Reconnect refrigerator to electrical power source.
  9.  To turn ice maker on, lower wire signal arm (side 

mounted) or set the ice maker’s On/Off power 

switch  to the “I” position (rear mounted).
