WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS  
Use only 1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing for water line. Do  
Not install copper tubing in area where temperatures  
drop below 35 F (1.7 C). Before attaching copper tubing  
to refrigerator, flush at least 2 quarts (1.9 L) of water  
through the copper tubing and into a bucket to get rid of  
any particles in the water line.  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD  
Some water may remain in line. Electric  
drill must be grounded to prevent severe or  
lethal shock if water is in line and enters drill  
during use.  
o
o
•Connect 1/4” (6mm) flexible copper tubing to household plumbing in compliance with local codes and ordinances.  
•Length of copper tubing must reach from water supply connection to refrigerator connection plus an additional length  
to facilitate moving the refrigerator out of enclosure for cleaning or service. Tubing should be soft instead of rigid and  
ends should be free of burrs.  
o
o
•Copper tubing route must be above 35 F (1.6 C) to prevent water line from freezing.  
•If saddle valve is not used, place a separate shut-off valve in an easily accessible location between water supply and  
refrigerator. Do not locate shut-off valve behind refrigerators.  
•Do not use plastic water lines.  
Do not use self-piercing valve.  
Viking Range Corporation is not responsible for property damage due to improper  
installation or water connection.  
Do not use with reverse osmosis water filtration system. This will void warranty  
•Connect a vertical or horizontal 1/2” (1.2 cm) to 1 1/4” (3.2 cm) COLD water line near refrigerator area.  
•Run water line through the floor, back or side wall. Tubing should lay flat on floor underneath refrigerator. Clamp  
tubing to wall or floor.  
•Water pressure must be greater than 20 psi and less than 120 psi.  
Plumbing Dimensions  
To rough in water line:  
1. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.  
2. Vertical cold water line: Use grounded electric drill or hand drill to drill 3/16” (4.5 mm) hole in an easily accessible  
location in water line.  
Horizontal cold water line: Use grounded electric drill or hand drill to drill 3/16”  
(4.5 mm) hole in the TOP of the water line. This will keep sediment from  
collecting in valve.  
3. Position washer over hole in water line. Place both halves of saddle valve bracket  
against water line. turn saddle valve handle clockwise until firmly seated. The  
saddle valve is now in the closed position. Tighten packing nut. Evenly and  
firmly tighten bracket screws so washer will make a water-tight connection. Do  
not overtighten screws: copper tubing could be crushed.  
4. Check that both ends of copper tubing are cut square. Slide compression nut  
and sleeve onto copper tubing. Insert end of copper tubing completely into  
valve outlet. Tighten compression nut to outlet with adjustable wrench. Do not  
overtighten.
