Electrical Requirements; Recommended Grounding Method - EdgeStar IB450SSP Owner's Manual

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 15 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.
