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.
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 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.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
•  Copper or Stainless Steel braided tubing
is recommended for the water supply 
line. Water supply tubing made of ¼ 
inch plastic is not recommended to be 
used. Plastic tubing greatly increases 
the potential for water leaks, and the 
manufacturer will not be responsible for 
any damage if plastic tubing is used for 
the supply line.
•  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 connected 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.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Before Installing The Water Supply Line, 
You Will Need:
•  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 
mm) 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.
•  Do not reuse compression fitting or use
thread seal tape.
•  A compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for 
connecting a copper water supply line to 
the ice maker inlet valve.
