Electrical Requirements

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.
Never use an adapter.
Never use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
electrical shock, or death
Before you move your icemaker into its final location, it is important to
make sure you have the proper electrical connection:
A standard electrical supply (115 V, 60Hz.), 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 icemaker, be
provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull
chain.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 3 amps.

Recommended grounding method

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is equipped
with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize
possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged
and 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.
