Installing the Water Line
For Australian and New Zealand installation, read these instructions completely and carefully.
IMPORTANT: Government legislation and Codes
in most States and Territories of Australia
require installation by a licensed plumber.
The installation must conform to Australian
Standard AS 3500.1 Water supply.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes)
in house plumbing can cause damage to the
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 refrigerator 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 set to the O position.
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where
the temperatures fall below freezing.
Before You Begin
For models fitted with an icemaker, a water supply
kit (containing flexible tubing and fittings) is supplied
with the refrigerator.
The water pressure must be between 138 and
827 kPa on models without a water filter fitted
and between 275 and 827 kPa on models with
a water filter fitted.
Turn Off the water and open a low tap to drain
the water from the pipe.
Complying with the plumbing codes, install a suitable
branch fitting (not supplied) to the cold water supply.
Extend the branch to a suitable location adjacent
to the refrigerator when it is located in its operating
position. Terminate the branch with a shutoff valve
(not supplied).
IMPORTANT: The shut-off valve should be accessible
(such as in an adjacent cupboard, as close to the wall
as possible) when the refrigerator is in its normal
operating position.
If your water supply pressure is higher than 690 kPa
during the day (if so, it may reach higher levels
at night), install a suitable Pressure limiting valve
(not supplied), after the shut-off valve, making sure
the “flow arrows” on the body of the device face
the same direction as the water flow.
If necessary, assemble a suitable fitting (not supplied)
to the up-stream end of the shutoff valve (or pressure
limiting valve) for attachment of the fitting supplied
with the water supply kit.
NOTE: PTFE tape should be used for a water tight seal
when assembling all the above fittings.
Do not turn the water supply On at this time.
Shut Off the Main Water Supply
