•
BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR ICE MAKER: TAKE OFF THE DOOR.
•
NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE, PLAY WITH, OR CRAWL INSIDE THE
APPLIANCE.
•
NEVER CLEAN ICE MAKER PARTS WITH FLAMMABLE FLUIDS. THE FUMES CAN
CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR EXPLOSION.

•
BEFORE CONNECTING THE ICE MAKER TO THE POWER SOURCE, LET IT STAND UPRIGHT
FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 HOURS. THIS WILL REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF A MALFUNCTION
IN THE COOLING SYSTEM FROM HANDLING DURING TRANSPORTATION.
•
CLEAN THE INTERIOR SURFACE WITH LUKEWARM WATER USING A SOFT CLOTH.
INSTALLATION OF YOUR ICE MAKER
•
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO VENT HOT AIR THROUGH THE FRONT VENT. THIS
ALLOWS FOR INSTALLATION IN A RECESSED OR BUILT-IN APPLICATION, IF DESIRED.
•
PLACE YOUR ICE MAKER ON A LEVEL SURFACE THAT IS STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT
THE ICE MAKER WHEN IT IS FULLY LOADED. REMEMBER THAT THE UNIT WILL BE
SIGNIFICANTLY HEAVIER ONCE IT IS OPERATIONAL AND FULLY LOADED. LEVEL YOUR ICE
MAKER BY ADJUSTING THE LEGS AT THE FRONT OF THE ICE MAKER.
•
LOCATE THE ICE MAKER AWAY FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND SOURCES OF HEAT (STOVE,
HEATER, RADIATOR, ETC.). DIRECT SUNLIGHT MAY AFFECT THE FINISH AND HEAT
SOURCES MAY INCREASE ELECTRICAL CONSUMPTION. EXTREME COLD AMBIENT
TEMPERATURES MAY ALSO CAUSE THE ICE MAKER MALFUNCTION. THIS ICE MAKER IS
DESIGNED FOR
CONDITIONS.
•
AVOID LOCATING THE ICE MAKER IN MOIST/HUMID AREAS. TOO MUCH MOISTURE IN THE
AIR WILL CAUSE FROST TO FORM QUICKLY ON THE EVAPORATOR REQUIRING FREQUENT
DEFROSTING.
•
PLUG THE ICE MAKER INTO AN EXCLUSIVE PROPERLY INSTALLED GROUNDED WALL
OUTLET. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND)
PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD. ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING POWER AND/OR
GROUNDING SHOULD BE DIRECTED TOWARD A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
