GETTING STARTED
VACATION OR EXTENDED
TIME WITHOUT USE
When you will not be using the ice maker for
an extended period of time, turn off the water
and power supply to the ice maker.
Check that the water supply lines are insulated
against freezing conditions. Ice formations in
the supply lines can increase water pressure
and cause damage to your ice maker or home.
Damage from freezing is not covered by the
warranty.
UNPACK THE ICE MAKER
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
ice maker.
Failure to do so can result in back or other
injury.
REMOVING PACKAGING MATERIALS
Uncrate the ice maker. Remove tape and glue
from your ice maker before using.
To remove any remaining tape or glue
from the exterior of the ice maker,
rub the area briskly with your thumb.
Tape or glue residue can also be easily
removed by rubbing a small amount of
liquid dish soap over the adhesive with
your fingers. Wipe with warm water
and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing
alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive
cleaners to remove tape or glue. Do not
use chlorine bleach on the stainless
steel surfaces of the ice maker. These
products can damage the surface of
your ice maker.
CLEANING BEFORE USE
After you remove all of the packaging materials,
clean the inside of your ice maker before using
it. For instructions on how to clean the ice
maker, refer to the cleaning instructions in the
“Ice Maker Care” section of Use and Care Guide.
OPTIONAL PERSONALIZATIONS
REVERSING THE DOOR
For instructions on how to reverse the door,
refer to the “Door Reversal” section.
CUSTOM PANEL INSTALLATION
For instructions on how to install a custom door
panel, refer to the “Custom Wood Door Panel”
section.
If you plan to install a custom overlay panel, you
will need to make the panel yourself or consult
a qualified cabinetmaker or carpenter.
IMPORTANT:
The thickness of the overlay panel must
be 3/4" (1.91 cm).
Overlay panel must not weigh more
than 8 lbs (3.62 kg).
Overlay panels weighing more than
recommended may cause damage to
your ice maker.
Countersink all the handle mounting
hardware.
Match wood grain direction with that of
adjacent cabinets.
Sand panel edges to provide a smooth
finish.
Use moisture sealer on both sides and
all edges of the panel to avoid damage
from moisture.
PARTS NEEDED:
Instructions, #8 x 1/2" pan head wood
screws (14)

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Installation must comply with all governing
codes and ordinances.
TEMPERATURE
It is recommended that you install the
ice maker in a well-ventilated area with
temperatures above 55°F (13°C) and below 110°F
(43°C). Best results are obtained between 70°F
and 90°F (21ºC and 32°C).
LOCATION
The ice maker must be installed in an area
sheltered from the elements, such as wind, rain,
or water spray.
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice
maker, the front side must be completely
unobstructed. The ice maker may be closed
in on the top and three sides, however the
installation should allow the ice maker to be
pulled forward for servicing if necessary.
The auxiliary grill kit provided can be used to
align the toe grill with the rest of the cabinets
while not obstructing ventilation of the ice
maker.
Floor must be able to support the ice maker’s
total weight, of more than 106 lbs (48.08 kg),
including door panels and contents of the
ice maker. It is important for the ice maker to
be level in order to work properly. If needed,
you can adjust the height of the ice maker by
changing the height of the leveling legs.
Check that the power supply cord, water supply
line, and drain line (on some models) are not
damaged, pinched, or kinked between the ice
maker and the cabinet.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT:
■This ice maker has been designed for flush
install in instances where the power supply,
water supply, and drain are located in a
cabinetry.
■For installation of product with utilities
behind the ice maker, flush install may not
be achieved.
■Refer “Location Requirement” illustration

Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Electrical Requirements
Power Supply115 V, 60Hz, AC only
Circuit Breaker15 A to 20 A, fused
Receptacle3 prong grounding-type
OutletNon-GFCI
IMPORTANT:
■Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a
switch. Do not use an extension cord.
■It is recommended that this product not be
connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter) protected outlet, as nuisance
tripping of the power supply may occur.
■The ice maker must be grounded. The
ice maker is equipped with a power
supply cord having a grounded 3 prong
plug. The cord must be plugged into a
mating, grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle,
grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is
not available, it is the personal responsibility
of the customer to have a properly
grounded 3 prong wall receptacle installed
by a qualified electrician.

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Before connecting the ice maker, ensure that
the water supply lines are insulated against
freezing conditions. Ice formations in the
supply lines can increase water pressure and
damage the ice maker or home. Damage
from frozen supply lines is not covered by the
warranty.
Use new hoses supplied with the product. Do
not reuse old hoses.

IMPORTANT:
■Connect to potable water supply only.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the system.
Systems certified for cyst reduction may be
used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
■A reverse osmosis water filtration system is
not recommended for ice makers that have
a drain pump installed. Reverse osmosis
water filtration systems should be used for
gravity drain systems only.
■Connect the ice maker drain to your drain
in accordance with the International
Plumbing Code and any local codes and
ordinance.
■To achieve a flush installation, the water
shutoff valve should not be installed in the
wall behind the refrigerator, but in another
easily accessible location.
■The drain pump discharge line must
terminate at an open-site drain.
■Maximum rise 10 ft (3.1 m)
■Maximum run 100 ft (30.5 m)
NOTE: If the drain hose becomes twisted and
water cannot drain, your ice maker will not
work.
REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER SUPPLY
A reverse osmosis system may be used if the
water pressure from the filtration system meets
the required water pressure requirements.
If a reverse osmosis system is desired, only a
whole-house capacity reverse osmosis system,
capable of maintaining the steady water supply
required by the ice maker, is recommended.
Faucet capacity reverse osmosis systems are
not able to maintain the steady water supply
required by the ice maker.

DRAIN SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in
accordance with all state and local codes and
ordinances. Follow these guidelines when
installing drain lines. This will help avoid water
from flowing back into the ice maker storage
bin. Water flowing back into the ice maker can
potentially flow onto the floor and cause water
damage.
