Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and cabinet.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. If the ice maker is
not level, water may not flow properly through the evaporator (ice mold) and ice
production will be less than normal. Several adjustments may be required in order to level
the ice maker.
All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
Make certain that hoses are not pinched, kinked or damaged during installation.
Check for leaks after water line is connected.
Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, due to long-term transit and
storage, the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
Remove the packing materials and clean the ice maker before using.
Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice maker. Never turn the water
supply tap off when the ice maker is working.
Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed in order to reduce ice melting and
to promote proper ice formation.
If the ice maker will not be used for a long period of time, before the next use, it must be
thoroughly cleaned. Carefully follow any instructions provided for cleaning or use of
sanitizing solution. Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
Do not touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be easily damaged.
DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners
may transmit taste to the ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
The ice machine cleaner contains acids. Do not use or mix with any other solvent-based
cleaner products. Use rubber gloves to protect hands. Carefully read the safety instructions
on the container of the ice machine cleaner.
Do not use the apparatus other than for its intended purpose.

Electrical Connection
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power
cord. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this
appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug that mates with a standard 3-prong
grounding wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your
responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet. The ice maker should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet that
has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This will ensure the best
performance and also prevent possible overloading of house wiring circuits which could
cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug your ice maker by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. Immediately
repair or replace any power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When
moving the ice maker, be careful not to damage the power cord.
