INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Option C - Drain Pump
Using the drain pump option is encouraged if there
is no nearby fl oor drain that can be used. Using
the pump allows the drain hose to be angled in any
direction.
1. Use the drain hose provided in the accessory
bag.
2. Attach the drain hose to the pump drain outlet
on the back of the appliance.
3. Direct the other end of the drain hose to a drain.
4. Remove the rear drain seal and the rear drain
cap from the back of the bucket to allow melted
water from the bucket to fl ow into the internal
water tank, which will then drain through the
hose.
When using the continuous drain option, ensure that
the drain pump switch on the back of the appliance
is set to "ON".

DRAINING THE APPLIANCE

If the appliance will be cleaned or if it will not
be used for a long period of time, it should be
completely drained of all water.
Turn off the water supply and remove the ice bucket.
On the inner back wall of the appliance there is a
rubber tube connected to the interior water tank.
Gently unhook the tube and lower it toward the
drain port at the back of the ice maker cabinet to
allow the water inside the appliance to drain.
Note: Do not leave the appliance unattended while
it is draining. Water fl ow can overwhelm the drain
and may leak from the front of the cabinet. It is
advisable to slightly raise the front of the cabinet
while draining to avoid this issue.
CONTINUOUS WATER CIRCULATION
This appliance operates using a continuous water
cycle that produces very little waste.
When the appliance is operating and the internal
water container is low, new water is allowed into
the appliance from the water source. The water
tank fi lls up and the recirculation pump cycles water
over the evaporator tray until ice is produced. This
process is continuous as long as the appliance is
turned on and the water source is connected.
Any water that enters the drain at the bottom of the
ice maker is not recycled, it is drained through the
drain hose or is it collected in the ice bucket if no
drain hose is connected. This ensures that new ice is
always created with clean water.
