WARNING
This icemaker should be destined only to the use for which it has been expressly conceived. Any other use should be considered improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for injury or damage resulting from improper, incorrect, and unreasonable use.
To reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire, follow basic precautions including the following:
•This unit requires an independent power supply. See the nameplate for proper voltage and breaker/fuse size. Failure to use a proper breaker or fuse can result in a tripped breaker, blown fuse, or damage to existing wiring. This could lead to heat generation or fire.
•THIS UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED: This unit is equipped with a 3 prong grounding plug to reduce the risk of potential shock hazards. It must be plugged into a properly grounded, independent wall outlet. If the outlet is a 2-prong outlet, it is your personal responsibility to have a qualified electrician replace it with a properly grounded, independent 3-prong wall outlet. Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord and do not use an adapter plug.
•Do not use an extension cord.
•Make sure the control switch is in the "OFF" position before plugging in or unplugging the unit to reduce the risk of electric shock.
•Do not use a unit with a damaged power cord.The power cord should not be altered, jerked, bundled, weighed down, pinched, or tangled. Such actions could result in electric shock or fire. To unplug the unit, be sure to pull the plug, not the cord, and do not jerk the cord.
•To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the plug or control switch with damp hands.
•This unit should be disassembled or repaired only by qualified service personnel to reduce the risk of electric shock, injury, or fire.
•Do not make any alterations to the unit.Alterations could result in electric shock, injury, fire, or damage to the unit.

WARNING
1.This icemaker must be installed in accordance with applicable national, state, and local codes and regulations.
2.CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are securely in place after installation. Make sure that none have fallen into the storage bin.
A.Checks Before Installation
•Visually inspect the exterior of the shipping container and immediately report any damage to the carrier. Upon opening the container, any concealed damage should also be immediately reported to the carrier.
•Remove the shipping carton, tape, and packing material. If any are left in the icemaker, it will not work properly.
•Remove the package containing the accessories.
•Remove the protective plastic film from the panels. If the icemaker is exposed to the sun or to heat, remove the film after the icemaker cools.
•See the nameplate on the left side panel, and check that your voltage supplied corresponds with the voltage specified on the nameplate.
B.Location
This icemaker is approved for indoor or outdoor use.
CAUTION
1.Normal operating ambient temperature should be within 45°F to 100°F (7°C to 38°C); Normal operating water temperature should be within 45°F to 95°F
(7°C to 35°C). Operation of the icemaker, for extended periods, outside of these normal temperature ranges may affect icemaker performance.
2.This icemaker will not work at sub-freezing temperatures. To prevent damage to the water supply line, drain the icemaker if the air temperature is going to go below 32°F (0°C). See "III.C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage."
For best operating results:
•The icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other high heat producing equipment.
•The location should provide a firm foundation for the icemaker.
•This icemaker requires no side or top clearance. But allow enough space at rear for water supply and drain connections and at least 15" (38 cm) clearance at front.
