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 access 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 shutoff  valve 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.

Tighten any connections 

that leak.

Arrange the coil of  tubing so that it does not vibrate 

against the back of  the refrigerator or against the wall.

Push the refrigerator back to the wall.

Reattach the access cover.

On power switch models, set the icemaker power switch

to the l (on) position. On feeler arm models, move the

feeler arm to the ON (down) position. The icemaker will

not begin to operate until it reaches its operating

temperature of  15°F (–9°C) or below. 

It will then begin operation automatically.

NOTE: In lower water pressure conditions, the water

valve may turn on up to 3 times to deliver enough water

to the icemaker.
