INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION OF YOUR ICE MAKER
This ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber only
Locate the ice maker away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.) as it may
increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the ice maker not to
perform properly.
Plug the ice maker into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances
cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
INSTALLATION TYPES
This ice maker is designed for freestanding, recessed, or built-in installation. In every setting, there must be ade-
quate ventilation and access for service. Never install or operate the unit in an enclosed area, such as a closed
cabinet.
Freestanding installation:
A free-standing installation will allow you to install the icemaker in any place you desire provided you have
access to a water supply. You must follow the stated instructions for:
Electrical requirement
Water supply
Leveling the icemaker
Recessed installation:
A recessed installation will allow you to install the ice maker under a counter or in a kitchen cabinet provided
the required clearance space around the ice maker is respected. This installation has the same requirements
as a built-in installation.
Built-in installation:
If this method of installation is chosen, it will still be necessary to allow adequate ventilation space around the
unit (make sure there is at least some ventilation room for the back of the unit). The following additional items
must be observed.
1. Place ice maker in front of installation location. Remove the feet and place the unit flat on the floor or
on a platform depending on your installation requirements.
2. The water supply hose must be plumbed before connecting to the ice maker.
3. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten any connections
(including connections at the tie-in).
4. If electrical outlet for the ice maker is behind the cabinet, plug in the ice maker.
5. Push the ice maker into position.
6. Seal all around the cabinet to the floor with an approved caulking compound.
