WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

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.
CAUTION
To Avoid Property Damage:
• Use Copper or Stainless Steel braided
tubing for the water supply line. Do
not use water supply tubing made of
¼ in. plastic. Plastic tubing greatly
increases the potential for water
leaks, and the manufacturer will not
be responsible for any damage if you
use plastic tubing for the supply line.
• DO NOT install water supply tubing
in areas where temperatures fall
below freezing.
• Chemicals from a malfunctioning water
softener can damage the ice maker.
If you use a water softening system,
ensure the softener is maintained and
working properly.
IMPORTANT
Ensure the water supply line connections
comply with all local plumbing codes.
To install the water supply line, the
following are needed:
Basic Tools: adjustable wrench, flathead
screwdriver, and Phillips
Access to a household cold water
line with water pressure between 30
and 100 psi.
A water supply line made of ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) OD, copper or stainless
steel tubing. To determine the length
of tubing needed, measure the dis-
tance from the ice maker inlet valve
at the back of the refrigerator to the
cold water pipe. Then add approxi-
mately 6 ft. (1.8 m.), so you can move
the refrigerator out for cleaning.

TM
A shutoff valve to connect the water
supply line to the 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.
NOTE
Check with local building authority for
recommendations on water lines and
associated materials prior to installing
refrigerator. Depending on local/state
building codes, Frigidaire recommends
you use Smart Choice
5304437642 with a 6 ft. (1.8 m.) Stain-
less Steel Water Line on homes with
existing valves. Please refer to Frigid-
aire.com for more information.

Our refridgerator was stored for the winter in freezing temps and now when turned on it is leaking water. How can we repair this and how can it be properly drained in the future.
