The water supply should be ready at the
point of installation. The water supply
pressure should be a minimum of 15
psig with a static pressure not more
than 80 psig. (A wall outlet directly
behind the ice machine will make
installation easier.)
IMPoRtAnt:
1. All installations must be in
accordance with local plumbing
code requirements. Professional
installation is recommended.
2. Make certain the hoses are not
pinched or kinked or damaged during
installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
tools required:
½-in. open-end wrench, Phillips
screwdriver, adjustable pliers.
connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on
the nearest faucet long enough to
clear line of water.
2. Find a ½-in. to ¾-in. vertical cold
water pipe near the installation
location. The water supply hose
provided with the ice maker.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to
the main water supply. If the water
pipe has a plain piece of copper
tubing, attach a ¼" O.D. compression
union to the tubing and remove the
nut.
4. Connect the nut of the water supply
hose to the tap, and connect the
other end with the water inlet.
Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half
turn with wrench.
5. Turn on main water supply and tap.
Check for water supply connection
leaks. Tighten every connection
(including connection at the water
inlet).
IMPoRtAnt: When you connect the
water supply hose and the drain hose,
pay attention to the indications of
"Water inlet" and "Drain outlet" on the
machine.

DRAIn

You must connect the drain line before
using the ice maker.
notE: If there is a drain line near the
ice maker, the best choice is to drain
water to the drain line through the
drain water hose provided with ice
maker.
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice
maker. The distance should be less
than 5 feet since the length of the
long drain water hose provided with
the ice maker is about 5 feet.
2. Find the drain outlet on the back of
ice maker. Connect the drain hose
to the unit drain outlet, tighten drain
hose clamp, and insert the other end
of the hose into the drain line.
notE: Never allow the drain hose to
hang or loop higher than the floor of the
ice storage bin.
3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must
have a fall of ¼" per foot. An air gap
will likely be required between the ice
maker drain hose and the drain/waste
receptacle. A standpipe with a trap
below it would be acceptable for the
drain/waste receptacle.
