Properly grounded outlet is required for this unit.
•
It is recommended or your building code may require that a single circuit GFCI receptacle or breaker be used for this unit only.
•
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
Outdoor models must use a GFCI receptacle.
•
1.8 Water reqUirementS
Use supplied water line fitting for water connection to the rear of the unit.
•
Use cold, potable water supply only with pressure between 20 to 120 psi.
•
Use 1/4 inch OD soft copper tubing. Plastic tubing can be used, but may leak with age.
•
Use 1/4 inch saddle shut-off valve. Check to make sure valve complies with local codes. DO NOT USE SELF-PIERCING SADDLE
•
VALVE OR LESS THAN 1/4 INCH SADDLE VALVE AS WATER FLOW WILL BE RESTRICTED.
A quality system water filter or local water filter is recommended. A quality filter can remove particles as well as remove un-
•
pleasant taste and odors from water.
Softened water is not recommended. Depending on mineral concentrations, this can produce cloudy white cubes that may
•
stick together.
The above materials can be found at most local plumbing supply stores or hardware stores. Use fittings that are specified for
potable water. Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions for water valves and water line hook-ups. Make certain the
waterline and the valve do not leak prior to enclosing cabinet.
1.9 gravity Drain
NOTICE
OBSERVE AND FOLLOW ALL LOCAL AND STATE CODES WHEN INSTALLING ICE MAKER.
NOTICE
A DRAIN PUMP MUST BE USED FOR ICE MAKER DRAIN.
The drain fitting from the Ice Maker is for 5/8 inch OD tubing. This tubing can be routed to a gravity drain in the area shown in
Figure 1.2 or to a remote gravity drain that is located below the Ice Maker. Be sure to check your local codes. Slope any long hori-
zontal runs according to code to remote gravity drain for proper drainage. An air gap may be necessary for horizontal runs over
four feet. Use thick wall tubing that will not kink easily when the Ice Maker is installed. PROPER ROUTING, SLOPING, AND SIZE OF
DRAIN LINE IS IMPORTANT ESPECIALLY IF USING FLEXIBLE TUBING OR POOR ICE PRODUCTION WILL RESULT.
If installing a standoff gravity drain, use Figure 1.2 for location. Standpipe can be up to three inches high above the floor. Route
the tubing from the Ice Maker into drain pipe. See the Owner’s Guide for additional drain information.
It may be necessary in some installations to wrap drain tubing with wrap-type insulation to prevent condensation on the drain
tube. CONDENSATION CAN FORM ON THE DRAIN TUBING AND CAUSE SURROUNDING WATER DAMAGE.
