INSTALLING THE WATER LINE (ICEMAKER MODELS)
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 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 the RO filter can result in hollow
ice cubes.
This water line installation is not warranted by the
refrigerator or icemaker 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.
If you use your refrigerator before connecting the
water line, make sure the icemaker power switch is
in the O (off) position.
Do not install the icemaker 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.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
Copper or GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator
Tubing kit,1/4 outer diameter to connect the

sure both ends of the tubing are cut square.

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.
