17To Install Anti-tip Boards1. Mark the stud locations on rear wall 80" to 90" (203 cm to229 cm) above floor.2. Securely attach two 2" x 4" x 32" (5 cm x 10 cm x 81 cm)boards to wall studs behind refrigerator. Use six #8 x 3"(7.6 cm) (or longer) wood screws. The wood screws must bescrewed into the studs at least 1½" (3.8 cm). The boards mustoverlap the compressor cover.Connect the Water SupplyRead all directions before you begin.IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line isconnected, turn the ice maker OFF.Connect to Water LineParts Needed■ Minimum 7 ft (2.13 m) flexible, codes approved watersupply lineStyle 1—Shutoff Valve ConnectionNOTE: If your water line connection does not look like Style 1, see“Style 2—Copper Line Connection.”1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power supply.IMPORTANT:■ There is not enough clearance to achieve a flush installation ifa water shutoff valve is located in the wall behind therefrigerator. The water shutoff should be located in the basecabinet on either side of the refrigerator.■ Before attaching the tubing to shutoff valve, flush the mainwater supply line to remove particles and air in the water line.Allow enough flow so that water becomes clear. Flushing thewater line may help avoid filters and/or water valves frombecoming clogged.2. Connect the flexible, codes approved water supply line to thewater shutoff valve by threading the provided nut onto theshutoff valve as shown.3. Place the end of the tubing into a bucket, and turn shutoffvalve ON.4. Check for leaks. Tighten any nuts or connections (includingconnections at the valve) that leak.Style 2—Copper Line ConnectionNOTE: If there is a water supply line that meets the specificationsin “Water Supply Requirements,” proceed to “Connecting toRefrigerator.” If not, use the following instructions to connect tothe household cold water supply.1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet longenough to clear line of water.3. Locate a ½" to 1¹⁄₄" (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical cold waterpipe near the refrigerator.IMPORTANT:■ Make sure it is a cold water pipe.■ Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of thepipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away fromthe drill and keep normal sediment from collecting in thevalve.4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measurefrom the connection on the refrigerator to the water pipe. Add7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) O.D.(outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both ends of coppertubing are cut square.5. Using a cordless drill, drill a ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) hole in the coldwater pipe you have selected.A. Two 2" x 4" x 32" (5 cm x 10 cm x 81 cm) boardsB.
