Electrical Requirements
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection:
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 ampere electrical supply,
properly grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is
required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only
your ice maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which
cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded.
This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord
having a 3 prong grounding plug. To minimize possible
shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating,
3 prong, grounding-type wall receptacle, grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local
codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not
available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer
to have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician.
Leveling the Ice Maker
It is important for the ice maker to be level in order to work
properly. Depending upon where you install the ice maker,
you may need to make several adjustments to level it.
Tools required

Undercounter installation
If you are installing the ice maker under a countertop, then
you may need to adjust the height of the ice maker. The
adjustable rear wheels are preset to position 1 for a
cabinet opening height of 34" (86.4 cm).

To adjust the rear wheel height
1. Using a
¹⁄₄
" socket wrench, remove the five screws from
the rear access panel and carefully pull the panel away
from the drain hose.
2. Using a
³⁄₈

that holds the rear wheel.
NOTE: Pushing up against the top back of the ice
maker takes some of the weight off of the wheels. This
makes it easier to remove the screws.
3. Move the rear wheel and screw to a new position as
needed for your cabinet opening height. Tighten the
screw completely.
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to change the position of the
wheel on the other side.
5. Replace the rear panel and screws. Be sure that the
drain tube is positioned in the opening provided.
6. Use the front leveling legs to make sure the product is
level.
