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

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. The face of the cabinetry must be ush
with the front of the ice maker.
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
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
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 Supply 115 V, 60Hz, AC only
Circuit Breaker 15-20 A, fused
Receptacle 3 prong grounding-type
Outlet Non-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
qualied electrician.
8 | SITE PREPARATION
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.
Water Supply Requirements
Water Pressure 30-120 psi (207-827 kPa)
Excess Water Line
for Connection
Water Inlet Supply
Drain Pump With shut-off valve
IMPORTANT:
■ Connect to potable water supply only.
■ A reverse osmosis water ltration system is not
recommended for ice makers that have a drain
pump installed. Reverse osmosis water ltration
systems are 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 ush 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.
1/4" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper
30"
tubing
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
A reverse osmosis system may be used if the water
pressure from the ltration 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.
SITE PREPARATION
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 if the ice maker is provided with a gravity
drain system. This will help keep water from owing
back into the ice maker storage bin. Water owing
back into the ice maker can potentially ow onto the
oor and cause water damage.
Drain Requirements
Inside Diameter minimum 5/8" (15.88 mm)
Drain lines must have a 1" drop
per 48" of run (2.54 cm drop
Drain Lines
1/4" drop per 12" of run(6.35 mm
Maximum rise 10 ft (3.1 m)
Maximum run 100 ft (30.5 m)
The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 1½"
(3.81 cm) to 2" (5.08 cm) PVC drain reducer installed
directly below the outlet of the drain tube as shown.
You must maintain a 1" (2.54 cm) air gap between the
drain hose and the standpipe.
Do not connect the outlet end of the drain tube to a
closed pipe system to keep drain water from backing
up into the ice maker.
Drain pump maximum capability: For every 1 ft
(0.31 m) of rise, subtract 10 ft (3.1 m) of maximum
allowable run.
IMPORTANT: A drain pump is necessary when a oor
drain is not available. A Drain Pump kit, Part Number
1901A, is available for purchase at
jennair.com/accessories/details/1901A.
NOTE: It may be desirable to insulate the drain
line thoroughly up to the drain inlet. An Insulation
Sleeve kit, Part Number W10365792, is available for
purchase at
