Recommended water connection location

 

Choose a location where the floor is even. It is important for 

the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. If needed, 

you can adjust the height of the ice maker by changing the 

height of the leveling legs. See “Leveling.”

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 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A 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.

IMPORTANT:

 If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground 

Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the 

power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality 

may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the 

condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it.

Recommended Grounding Method

The ice maker must be grounded. The ice maker is equipped with 

a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. 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.
