This kit provides a handle that can be installed with the
custom panel. A custom handle of your choice may be
installed onto the 3/4″ panel. See installation instructions
on pages 9 and 10.

ZPK1—Drain Pump Kit. For use when a floor drain is
not available. The drain pump must be installed inside

Refrigerator Tubing Kit or 1/4″ O.D.

copper tubing, of sufficient length to reach the installation

CUTOUT & PRODUCT DIMENSIONS

Cutout dimensions shown allow for a full door swing.

Additional Clearances:

• The installation of a 3/4″ thick custom panel will require
an additional 1-1/2″ wide filler strip on the hinge side.
The filler strip will act as a spacer between the
icemaker case and an adjacent cabinet. The filler strip
will prevent interference with the icemaker door swing
when it is installed between frameless or framed
cabinetry. The width of the opening must include the
filler strip.

NOTE: The addition of a
3/4″ thick front panel will
result in a front to back
depth of 24-1/16.″ The
product cannot be
installed flush to adjacent
24″ deep cabinets with a
3/4″ thick custom panel.

Installation Instructions

ADVANCE PLANNING

CAUTION: Due to excessive

weight, TWO PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED TO
MOVE AND INSTALL THIS ICEMAKER.
Failure to do so can result in back or
other injury.

MISE EN GARDE :

A cause de son poids élevé, IL FAUT
DEUX PERSONNES POUR DÉPLACER ET
INSTALLER CETTE MACHINE À GLAÇONS.
Le non-respect de ces instructions peut
causer des blessures au dos ou d'autre
nature.

IMPORTANT: The performance of the icemaker

may be affected when it is connected to a reverse
osmosis system. An RO system may reduce water
pressure and affect the fill cycle, which is dependent
on time and flow. The reduced water pressure (less
than 30 p.s.i.) may cause the reservoir not to fill and
flush properly during the ice making cycle.

• Do not use copper tubing when the icemaker is

connected to a reverse osmosis water system.

Choose the location:

• Not designed for outdoor installation.

• The icemaker must be installed in an area protected
from elements such as wind, rain, water spray or drip.
The area should be ventilated with temperatures
above 55°F (13°C) and below 110°F (43°C). Best results
are obtained between 70°F (21°C) and 90°F (32°C).

• The icemaker may be closed in on the top and
three sides as long as the front is unobstructed for
air circulation and proper operation.

–Installation should be such that the icemaker can

be moved forward for servicing, if necessary.

–The bottom grille on the front must be unobstructed

to provide proper air flow.

ADVANCE PLANNING

(cont.)

Before you begin:

1. If a custom panel is to be installed, follow the

instructions shown on pages 9 and 10.
–Order ZIP75 (black or white) panel kit.
–Order the custom panel from the cabinet

manufacturer.

–Secure the custom panel onto the icemaker.

2. Determine a method of drainage. If a floor drain

is to be installed, the drain must be accurately
located. The installation of a custom door panel will
affect the drain location. See page 6 to determine
the exact location of the floor drain, front to back,
with or without a custom door panel.
–A drain pump kit, ZPK1, is available and will not

interfere with placement of the icemaker.

3. The door swing is reversible. If desired, change the

door swing before installation.

4. Slide the icemaker into the installation location.

–Open and close the door to be sure there is no

interference.

–Check to be sure the icemaker can be moved

back into the opening, flush with adjacent
cabinetry. There should be no interference with
the floor drain.
