WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and 100 psi (207 and
689 kPa) is required to operate the water dispenser and ice maker. If
you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified
plumber.
IMPORTANT: Operation outside the water pressure range may cause
malfunction and severe, damaging water leaks.
NOTE: If the water pressure is less than what is required, the flow of water
from the water dispenser could decrease or ice cubes could be hollow or
irregularly shaped.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply (if applicable)
IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse
osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to
be between 30 and 100 psi (207 and 689 kPa).
If water pressure is too low:
Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is
blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after
heavy use. The tank capacity could be too small to keep up with the
requirements of the refrigerator.
If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water
pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system.
Remove the water filter.
