Product review (4 stars): Fresh installation tips
I did a fresh install as opposed to a replacement. This took a bit longer than the times posted here. I'm writing this review to call out some of the ambiguities in the instructions that slowed me down:

- The kit I received contained extra parts and instruction manuals for other model numbers. Be sure to inventory the parts that you need just for this model number before starting.
- Make sure you've got all the listed tools. I would also add that you want a vacuum, flashlight, and optionally a shopvac.
- You will need to buy 1/4" copper tubing separately. The instructions say you should get 8 feet. but it's fine to get longer (mine is 15 feet)
- Consider getting a cooler (or two) and some ice ready for your food that you have in the freezer as it will be off and the door open for a while.
- The metal cover for the inlet flange attaches with self-driving screws. My fridge had marks where they should go, but there was a layer of metal that they couldn't get through. You may need a drill here.
- The panel for the water valve on the lower left is a small panel inside of a larger one on my fridge. Though, you might want to take all the panels off and vacuum out the entire area if it's an older fridge: mine had quite a lot of buildup! You may want a shop vac to clean out your drip pan if it doesn't remove easily.
- The plastic intake tubing goes through the top part of the intake valve, and then underneath following the plastic guide and into the valve from below through the yellow hole. The instructions leave this part out (they just say to run the line across the back of the fridge)
- I found it easier to plug in the ice maker after mounting it to the wall since I didn't have an extra set of hands.
- When finished, the ice maker won't even pull water until the freezer is at temperature. So, you may need to wait an hour or two to confirm that everything is hooked up properly.
