IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the ice maker is used, it must be properly positioned and
installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To
reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the ice
maker, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet; do not remove grounding prong, do not use
an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be
provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
Never clean ice maker parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a
fire hazard or explosion.
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the the
unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off. (EXCEPTION: ice maker is
in cleaning mode).
Replace all panels before operating after servicing or maintenance.
Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to
do so can result in electrical shock or death.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your ice maker unless it is
specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
When you disassemble the front cover, don’t overexert, or the leads connected
with the power switch can be torn from the switch.
Use two or more people to move and install ice maker. Failure to do so can result
in back or other serious injury.
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be
completely unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above
55°F (13°C) and below 90°F (32°C). This unit MUST be installed in an area
protected from the elements, such as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
The ice maker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high
heat.
The ice maker must be installed with all electrical, water and drain connections in
accordance with state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only,
