II. Installation and Operating Instructions
WARNING
• The icemaker must be installed in accordance with applicable national, state, and
local codes and regulations.
• Failure to install, operate, 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.
•
CHOKING HAZARD:
Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews
are securely in place after installation. Make sure that none have fallen into the
dispenser unit/ice storage bin.
A. Location
NOTICE
• The icemaker is not intended for outdoor use. 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 90°F (7°C to 32°C). Operation of the
icemaker, for extended periods, outside of these normal temperature ranges may
affect icemaker performance.
• The 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 "IV. Preparing the Icemaker for Periods of Non-Use."
• The icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other high heat producing
equipment.
• Allow 6" (15 cm) clearance at rear, sides, and top for proper air circulation and ease of
maintenance and/or service should they be required.
• The location should provide a firm and level foundation for the equipment.
B. 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.
• See the nameplate on the rear panel, and check that your voltage supplied corresponds
with the voltage specified on the nameplate.
• Remove the panels to prevent damage when installing the icemaker. See "II.C. How to
Remove Panels."
• 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.
