WARNING
• Use two or more people to move and install the ice maker.
• Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
• To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be completely
unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 45°F (7°C) and below
110°F (43°C).
• Placing the ice maker at least 24′′ from high heat sources (fireplaces, grills, ovens, etc.) will ensure
minimal energy consumption.
• The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with
state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 A), properly grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
• 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. Otherwise water may not
flow properly through the evaporator (ice mold). The ice production will be less than normal. You
may need to make several adjustments to level it.
• 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 time, before the next use it must be thoroughly cleaned.
Follow carefully any instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing solution. Do not leave any
solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
• 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 cleaning
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.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS TECHNICAL INFORMATION
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
EXTENSION CORD
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 which has a voltage rating that matches the
rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading 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. Repair or replace immediately all
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.
The technical data and performance index listed above should be used for reference only.
They are subject to change.
*The actual quantity of ice produced per day can vary with environment and water conditions.
