A. Checks Before Installation
• Visually inspect the exterior of the shipping container and immediately report any
damage to the carrier. Upon opening the container, any concealed damage should also
be immediately reported to the carrier.
• Remove the shipping carton, tape, and packing material. If any are left in the icemaker,
it will not work properly.
• Remove the package containing the accessories.
• Remove the protective plastic film from the panels. If the icemaker is exposed to the sun
or to heat, remove the film after the icemaker cools.
• See the nameplate inside the ice storage bin, and check that your voltage supplied
corresponds with the voltage specified on the nameplate.
B. Location
1. General
This icemaker is approved for indoor or outdoor use.
NOTICE
• Normal operating ambient temperature must be within 45°F to 100°F (7°C to
38°C); Normal operating water temperature must be within 45°F to 95°F (7°C to
35°C). Operation of the icemaker, for extended periods, outside of these normal
temperature ranges may affect icemaker performance.
• This icemaker will not work at sub-freezing temperatures. To prevent damage
to the water supply line, drain the icemaker if the air temperature is going to go
below 32°F (0°C). See "V. Preparing the Icemaker for Periods of Non-Use."
For best operating results:
• The icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other high heat producing
equipment.
• The location must provide a firm foundation for the icemaker.
• This icemaker requires no side or top clearance. But allow enough space at rear for
water supply and drain connections and at least 15" (38 cm) clearance at front.
• The icemaker must be at floor level on a finished floor even if under a cabinet. In areas
where water damage is a concern, install in a contained area with a floor drain.
