Installation:

The ice machine is designed to be installed
indoors, in a controlled environment. Do not place
where the temperature limits for air or water are
exceeded.

The water supply must be cold, potable water. A
drain must be nearby or a drain pump model used
or a gravity drain model must be converted to use a
drain pump.

The ice machine must be on its own electrical
power circuit. The machine must be grounded. Do
not connect to an extension cord. Do not cut off the
ground prong off the power cord plug. Do not
bypass the ground prong.

The cabinet is designed to be either free standing
or built in. In either case the area in front of the
kickplate must be free of obstruction. Blocking this
area will cause low ice capacity and likely damage
the machine. Such damage is considered mis-use
and is not covered by warranty.

When building into a cabinet, be sure the power
supply, water and drain are all available within the
built in area.
