RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT!
An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children.
Remove door gaskets, latches, lids, lock and/or doors from unused or discarded appliances,
or take other actions to guarantee them harmless.
Always dispose of old appliances in accordance with local laws and regulations.
Inspect cabinet opening for water, drain and electrical connections.
The 1/4” O.D. water supply line must include isolation valve and should include an inline water
filter (consult manual). Do NOT use a self-piecing valve for the supply connection. Water
supply must have a minimum pressure of 20 psi and a maximum of 80 psi. Cold water
should be between 50 F and 90 F - NOTE: warmer water will slow ice production.
is strongly recommended.
Drain tubing will be 5/8” ID gravity fed or 3/8” ID for a pump model. All horizontal drain
runs must drop 1/4” per foot. The drain should include and air gap device to prevent
siphoning and a sanitary trap. A restricted or inadequite drain can result in poor ice
production and possible flooding.
Electrical requirement is 15a dedicated, grounded circuit - outdoor installs must use a GFI.
Route water supply tubing to the water inlet located at the rear of the unit.
Connect the drain tubing to either the pump discharge or the barbed gravity fed elbow.
Be sure nothing is kinked, and excess slack is removed.
Be sure the electrical connection is secure into the wall outlet.
Slide the machine into location or cavity being careful not to allow for any kinks to occur
in the water inlet and drain tubing.
Adjust the Ice Maker to level using the leg levelers.
Add approximately 2-3 quarts of water to the bin and make certain it is draining properly
and check for leaks. If water does not drain, stop and verify tubing is not restricted.
Wash down the interior of the machine with a mild detergent solution (consult manual)
Turn the machine on and allow it to make ice for approximately 30-35 minutes to verify
ice is being produced and water is draining freely. Be sure to check the cube size, shape
and clarity. Discard the first batch of ice.
adjust if needed.
Always do one last check to be sure all water and drain connections are leak free.
