Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection:
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply,
properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice
maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off
by a switch or pull chain.
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the
power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality
may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the
condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it.
Recommended grounding method
This appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped
with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. The
cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type
wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall
receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the
customer to have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician.
Water Supply Requirements
A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and
120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If
you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT:
Reverse osmosis water filtration systems can be used only
with ice maker installations that have a gravity drain. A
reverse osmosis system is not recommended for ice makers
that have a drain pump installed.
The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse
osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the ice
maker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and
827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
