WARNING
This icemaker should be destined only to the use for which it has been expressly
conceived. Any other use should be considered improper and therefore dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for injury or damage resulting from
improper, incorrect, and unreasonable use. Failure to service and maintain the
icemaker in accordance with this manual will adversely affect safety, performance,
component life, and warranty coverage and may result in costly water damage.
To reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire, follow basic
precautions including the following:
• Only qualified service technicians should install and service this icemaker.
• Electrical connection must meet national, state, and local electrical code
requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result in death,
electric shock, serious injury, fire, or severe damage to equipment.
• This icemaker requires an independent power supply of proper capacity. See the
nameplate for electrical specifications. Failure to use an independent power supply
of proper capacity can result in a tripped breaker, blown fuses, damage to existing
wiring, or component failure. This could lead to heat generation or fire.
•
THE ICEMAKER MUST BE EARTHED (GROUNDED). 220-240VAC UK and the
Republic of Ireland:
This appliance is equipped with a non-rewirable BSI BS-1363
three-prong 13A fused earthing (grounding) plug to reduce the risk of potential
shock hazards. It must be plugged into a properly earthed (grounded), independent
3-prong mains socket. If the mains socket is not compatible, it is your personal
responsibility to have a qualified electrician replace it with a properly earthed
(grounded), independent, compatible 3-prong mains socket. Do not remove the
earth (ground) prong or fuse from the plug and do not use an adapter plug. The
BSI BS-1363 three-prong 13A fused earthing (grounding) plug must never be used
without a fuse cover being fitted. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
death, electric shock, or fire.
•
220-240VAC Continental:
If the power cord and/or non-rewirable plug should need
to be fitted or replaced, it should only be done by a qualified service technician.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in death, electric shock, or fire.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the control switch or plug with
damp hands.
