INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

To ensure proper service access and ventilation, allow at least 4” clearance at rear, and 1” at top and sides. The in-
stallation should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for servicing if necessary.  
 

TRANSPORTATION AND LOCATION REQUIREMENTS 

 

This icemaker should be installed by a licensed plumber only.  

 

Before connecting the ice maker to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will 
reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.  

 

To ensure proper service access and ventilation, allow at least 4” clearance at rear, and 1” at top and sides. 
The installation should allow the icemaker to be pulled forward for servicing if necessary.  

 

When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the recommended spacing dimensions shown. Place 
electrical and water supplies and drain fixtures in the recommended locations as shown.  

 

This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements, e.g., wind, rain, water spray or drips. 
Do NOT use the ice maker in outdoor setting.  

 

The ice maker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat resources.  

 

Too much humidity in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent de-
frosting of the ice maker.  

 

The ice maker requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 15 psi and a static pressure 
not to exceed 80 psi.  

 

In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can remove taste and odors as well as 
particles. Where water is very hard, softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. 
Deionized water is not recommended.  

 

The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with state and local 
codes.  

 

The unit should be located on a hard and level surface that can support the unit when it is full. It is im-
portant for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice 
maker by turning the feet. See the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.  

 

A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz, 15 A), properly grounded in accordance with National 
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances is required.  

 

IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and wall or cabinet.  
 
 

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure should be a minimum of 
15 psi with a static pressure not more than 80 psi. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice maker will make installa-
tion easier.) 

 

Tools required: ½ in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver  

IMPORTANT:  

 

This ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber only.  

 

All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.  

 

Make certain that the water supply hose is not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.  

 

Check for leaks after connection.  

 

The ambient operational temperature should be between 50°F and 100°F. The input water temperature should 
be between 41°F and 90°F. Operation outside these temperatures may result in lowered production or other 
adverse effects.  

 

In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can remove taste and odors as well as parti-
cles. Where water is very hard, softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Deionized 
water is not recommended.  

 

The unit should be located on a hard and level surface that can support the unit when it is full. 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 turn-
ing the feet. See the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.
