CUTOUT & PRODUCT DIMENSIONS

Cutout dimensions shown allow for a full door swing.
Additional Clearances:
• The installation of a 3/4thick custom panel will require an additional 1-1/2wide 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 3/4thick front panel will result in a front to back depth of 24-1/16.″ The product cannot be installed flush to adjacent 24deep cabinets with a 3/4thick custom panel.

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.

WATER SUPPLY

A cold water supply is required for icemaker operation. The water pressure must be between 30 and 120 p.s.i.
Route GE SmartConnect
Kit or 1/4O.D. copper tubing between house cold water line and the water connection location.
The water line should be long enough to extend to the back of the icemaker. Allow enough to accommodate moving unit forward for service.
NOTE: The only GE approved plastic tubing is supplied in the GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any other plastic water supply line because the line is under pressure at all times. Other types of plastic may crack or rupture with age and cause water damage to your home. GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing Kits
are available in the following lengths: 2(0.6 m) WX08X10002 15(4.6 m) WX08X10015
6(1.8 m) WX08X10006 25(7.6 m) WX08X10025
Shut off the main water supply
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.
Install a shut-off valve between the icemaker water valve and cold water pipe in a basement or cabinet. The installation of an easily accessible shut-off valve in the water line is required.
NOTE: It is best to install the valve into a vertical water pipe. If you install the valve into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection at the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe.
Turn on the main water supply and flush debris from the
line. Run about a quart of water through the tubing into a bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off valve.
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in many water supply kits, but are not recommended for this application.

CONNECT THE DRAIN

This icemaker is equipped with a gravity drain to prevent water from flowing back into the storage bin and overflowing onto the floor. The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 2to 1-1/2PVC drain reducer installed directly below the drain tube:
–A 1″ min. physical gap
between the bottom of the icemaker drain hose and the top of the house drain is required. See illustration.
–7-1/2″ to centerline
of the opening.
Approximately 3-1/2high.22from the front, or
22-3/4when installing a 3/4door panel.
Drain lines must be at least 5/8″ inside diameter. NOTE: A drain pump is necessary when a floor drain
is not available. Order ZPK1 Drain Pump Kit or contact your local plumber for a recommended pump available in your area.
TEST DRAIN HOSE ALIGNMENT: Before sliding the icemaker into the cabinet opening, check to be sure the bottom of the drain tube is below the rear cover. To test, place a pan below the drain hose. Pour a gallon of water into the ice bin and check to be sure that water does not wet the rear cover.
WATER SUPPLY
(cont.)
Install optional water filter in the water line near the icemaker. A water filter is recommended in areas where water supply contains sand or particles. Installation instructions are packed with the filter.
IMPORTANT: The performance of the icemaker
may be affected when it is connected to a reverse osmosis system. An R.O. system may also 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.
NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing
Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.
