firmly in contact with the cabinet.
Note:
When inspecting door alignment, make sure the
door gasket is not pinched on the hinge side of the door

qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow
recommendations and instructions may result in damage
and/or harm.

To prevent accidental electrocution, make certain
that the floor surfaces surrounding the unit are
dry whenever power is removed from, or applied
to, the unit.
Water Supply Connection
Note:
Water temperature from source will affect ice
production. U-Line recommends room temperature or
colder water be used.
When connecting the water supply, follow these
guidelines:
• Review any applicable plumbing codes before you
install the unit.
• Connect to the cold water supply.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.
• Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch OD water supply
line.
• Connect sufficient tubing to the unit so that tubing
may be looped, allowing the unit to be removed for
cleaning and servicing (see
Figure 17
). However, make
certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged
during installation.
• U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for
installation.
To connect to water supply:
1. Install the 1/4 inch OD copper water line from the
main water source.
