Hi

The front grill at the bottom of the appliance needs to come off and behind that there is a push fit connector which you disconnect,there is a insert in the end of the pipe to stop leakage so dont loose it because you have to fit it to the new one.
At the back remove the metal grill assembly,”POWER OFF FIRST :nike: “.The water valve needs to be removed and the pipe disconnected,you can then pull the pipework out from within the fridge section.

Refitting is the reverse of above.

Longest of the pipes from the tank goes to the door connector/front outlet and will need cutting down slightly 😉

Okey, i’ve had the back panel off ond can see the pipe were it goes into the fridge… not a problem. The pipe to the front connection has me confused, i have take the plastic cover of the bottom ond can see the quick fit connection, but how do you get the pipe into the fridge, it goes through the metal and i cannot see how this metal cover comes off.

help please.

Cheers

whats the best way to get the pipe from the bottom of the fridge to the front of the grill.

Unpluging it is easy……. how to you feed the pipe through the front panel and get it to appear inside the fridge when there about 12 inches of in accessable void and a 90 degree turn.

Pipes feed from fridge cavity; one will appear near to compressor cooling fan (make sure you keep it well away) and the other will materialise just below both doors after removing the grill (longest of the pipes attached to new tank)
Thats all you need to know to do the job 😉
