WARNING
Requirements for Power Supply
120 volt, 60Hz, dedicated 15-amp circuit breaker and electric power are required. A separate circuit is
required for grounding.
The power cord of the product should be inserted into a suitable 3-prong grounding-
type outlet.
Important Information!
A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended because the
operation of the product may be stopped.
Important Information!
The provisions of the National Electric Code as well as any local laws and
instructions should be observed when installing the product.
Do not use extension cords or 2-prong adapters. The product must be fully grounded, according to
local/state/national
electrical codes.
Requirements for Plumbing
Plan the arrangement of water supply pipes. Connect a 1/4" diameter copper pipe as the source of cold water.
Install a shutoff valve between the tap water pipe and the ice maker so that the user can control the water flow.
Do not install the shutoff valve at the back of the product where it cannot be reached.
Do not use a self-
piercing valve. An inline water filter (not supplied) is required to keep the warranty
in effect.
The tap water pressure should be maintained at levels between 20psi and 80psi. If an electrical outlet is
available at the back of the ice maker, installation may be easier. A clock-type inverted receptacle is
recommended for the overlay model, so that after 3/4" wood is applied, the unit fits flush in the front. Electric
power, inlet water pipe, and drain pipeline installation should satisfy all provisions for local laws and
regulations.
For tap water position, refer to the installation specifications and drawings on pages 10 and 11.
Important Information!
The product is designed for built-in or free-standing use. However, it may be
necessary to slide the icemaker forward for service. For this reason, do not install any material at the front,
upper or lower end of the product which could obstruct the ice makers forward movement.
After installing the ice maker, place shims under the product as needed to keep it level.
Installation
on a Slab
Draw water to the drain position using the optional built-in drain pump.
The pump can raise water up to 8
feet in height. Capability to raise water may be affected by piping.
Important Information!
Piping/plumbing lines should be carried out in accordance with all local laws and
regulations.
