Note: There is a drain line on the ice maker. Please drain water to your drain through the drain line
provided with the ice maker.
Connecting the Drain Line:
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 4.5 feet since the length
of the long drain hose provided with the ice maker is about 4.5 feet.
2.
Find the drain hose on the back of the ice maker, then insert the other end of the hose into the drain
line.
3.
All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of
1
/
4
” per foot. An air gap will likely be required
between the ice maker drain hose and the drain/waste receptacle. A stand pipe with a trap below it
would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for proper drainage.
