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.

5. Turn on main water supply. Check for leaks. Turn saddle valve handle counterclockwise and run water through
copper tubing and into a bucket. Turn saddle valve clockwise to shut off water to copper tubing.
6. Route copper tubing to refrigerator area or water filter area.
7. Leave an additional length of copper tubing coil to facilitate moving the refrigerator out of enclosure for cleaning or
service.
8. See page11 for water connection instructions.
AREA REQUIREMENTS
Verify the following:
•Refrigerators can fit into residence and can be moved around corners and through doorways.
•Floors can support refrigerator’s weight plus food weight (approximately 1200 pounds each).
•Rear wall is solid and is able to support a (2) horizontally mounted 2X4s (included) bolted to 2 wall studs. The 2X4
board bolt heads must be flush with 2X4 to prevent obstruction.
•Remove anything attached to rear or side walls that can obstruct refrigerator opening.
•Cutout dimensions are accurate.
•Electrical outlet is in correct location.
•Water line in in correct location.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
If codes permit a separate grounding wire to be
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the grounding path is adequate.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are not sure the
appliance is properly grounded. Do Not have a
fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
DO NOTremove ground plug.
DO NOT use an adapter.
DO NOT use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
fire or electrical shock.
It is the customer’s responsibility to:
•contact a qualified electrical installer.
•assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or Canadian Electrical
Code C22.1-1998 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (or latest edition), and all local codes
and ordinances. 120 volt, 60-Hz, 15 amp, fused, electrical supply is required. It
is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong
grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating 3-prong, grounding-type wall receptacle. Do not use an
extension cord.
Anti-Tip Requirements
The anti-tip boards should be
fastened into position prior to
moving the unit into the opening.
TIP OVER HAZARD
Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not
completely installed.
Keep doors closed until refrigerator is completely
installed.
Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury
Note: The space between the
rear of the refrigerator cabinet
and the condensing unit
assembly housing is 1 1/2” (3.8
cm) deep. Additional mounting
boards may be required if the
refrigerator does not touch the
back wall of the enclosure
