TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH
THIS APPLIANCE.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.

STEP 2 INSTALL WATER LINE
• A cold water supply is required for automatic
icemaker operation. The water pressure must
be between 40 and 120 p.s.i.
• Route 1/4" OD copper or GE SmartConnect™
plastic tubing between house cold water line
and the water connection location.
• Tubing should be long enough to extend to the front
of the unit. Allow enough tubing to accommodate bend
leading into the water line connection.
Shut off the main water supply.
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line
of water.
NOTE: The only GE approved plastic tubing is supplied
in the GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing kits.
Do not use any other plastic water supply line because
the line is under pressure at all times. Other types
of plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause
water damage to your home.
• Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water
valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet.
The shut-off valve should be located where it will
be easily accessible.
• Turn on the main water supply and flush debris.
Run about a quart of water through the tubing into
a bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off valve.
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in many
water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle
type valve complies with your local plumbing codes.
GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing Kits are
available in the following lengths:
2' (.6 m)
WX08X10002
6' (1.8 m) WX08X10006
15' (4.6 m) WX08X10015
25' (7.6 m) WX08X10025
NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing
Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are
illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts.
Consult with your licensed plumber.
STEP 3 INSTALL SIDE PANELS
Skip this step when not using side panels
If you are using 1/4" side panels, they should
be inserted into the case trim.

STEP 5 LEVEL UNIT
All models have 4-point leveling. The front is supported
by leveling legs; the rear is supported by adjustable
wheels. Both are accessible from the front of the unit.
• To level the back of the unit, turn the 7/16" hex nut
located above the front wheels. Turn clockwise
to raise or counterclockwise to lower the unit.
• For front leveling, use a 1-1/4" open-end wrench.
• Adjust height of unit to match installation cutout
opening 83-1/2 to 84-1/2". The unit should be level
and plumb with cabinetry.
Hex Nut Adjusts
Rear Wheels
Leveling Leg
CAUTION:
The rear leveling wheels and front leveling legs
are limited to a maximum height adjustment of 1".
If the installation requires more than 84-1/2" height,
the installer should elevate the unit on a sheet
of plywood or runners. Cabinetry trim could also
be added across the top of the opening to shorten
the opening. If you attempt to raise the unit more
than 1", you will damage the front leveling legs
and the rear leveling wheels.

Installation Instructions
STEP 6 SECURE UNIT TO WALL
• The “L” rods can be found in the upper left and right
corners of the unit in the access compartment.
Look through the access compartment to make
sure the rods line up with the anti-tip bracket.
• There are 2 washers and a hair pin cotter per rod.
Remove the washers and hair pin cotter from the end
of the rod.
• Rotate and move the “L” rod into the slot in the anti-tip
bracket tab. Once it is in the slot, rotate the “L” rod
so the hook portion is pointing down. The holes
at the front end of the rod should be in a vertical
position. Do this to both sides.
• Pull out on the end of the rod to make sure it is secure
in the bracket.
• Locate the hole on the rod that is closest to the unit.
A hair pin cotter will be put through this hole to secure
the rod. If this hole appears to be too far away for
a snug fit against the unit, add the washers one
at a time until the pin will fit tightly into the hole.
• Align the straight section of the pin with the hole from
the underside of the rod. Push the pin up until it snaps
into position. Pliers may be used. NOTE: The hair pin
cotter must be vertical when this step is completed to
ensure the “L” rod is engaged in the bracket.
• Check the rod for tightness by pulling forward.
If the rod moves, remove the hair pin cotter and place
another washer on the rod. Reinsert the pin.
• Bend the left grille back into place (freezer only) and
replace the screws.
• Replace the flat grille panel by sliding it under the
flange at the top of the access compartment and
pushing the grille back into place. Replace screws.

tion automatically.

STEP 12 INSTALL TOEKICK
GE SmartConnect™ Tubing:
• Locate the supplied toekick (shipped taped to the side
of the product). Install with 2 screws provided, adjust
to the desired height and tighten the screws.
• A custom toekick can be installed to match
or complement the surrounding cabinetry.
Use the supplied toekick as a template to cut
out the notch.
• Insert the molded end of the tubing into
the refrigerator or freezer connection. Tighten
the compression nut until it is just hand-tight.
• Tighten one additional turn with a wrench.
Overtightening can cause leaks!
• Turn on the water to check for leaks.
NOTE: Make sure excess tubing length does not
interfere with the toekick installation.
