Location Requirements

■ 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, but the installation should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for servicing if necessary.

■ Installation of the ice maker requires a cold water supply inlet

of ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing with a shutoff valve and either a gravity-drain system or condensate pump to carry the water to an existing drain.

■ Choose a well ventilated area 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 ice maker must be installed in an area sheltered from the

elements, such as wind, rain, water spray, or drip.

■ Choose a location where the floor is even. 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. See “Leveling.”

■ When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the

recommended opening dimensions shown. Place electrical and plumbing fixtures in the recommended location as shown.

NOTES:

■ Be sure the power supply cord is not pinched between the

ice maker and the cabinet.

■ Be sure the water supply line is not pinched between the

ice maker and the cabinet.

■ Be sure the drain line (on some models) is not pinched

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.

Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection:

A 115 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply, properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.

It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.

IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it.

Recommended grounding method

The ice maker must be grounded. The ice maker is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. The cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type 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

A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

IMPORTANT:

■ Reverse osmosis water filtration systems can be used only

with ice maker installations that have a gravity drain. A reverse osmosis system is not recommended for ice makers that have a drain pump installed.

■ The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse

osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the ice maker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa).

If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).

NOTE: The reverse osmosis system must provide 1 gal. (3.8 L) of water per hour to the ice maker for proper ice maker operation. 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.

If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):

■ Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse

osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.

■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill

after heavy usage.

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

Leveling

It is important for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. Depending upon where you install the ice maker, you may need to make several adjustments to level it. You may also use the leveling legs to lower the height of the ice maker for undercounter installations.

Tools needed:

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

■ 9" level

■ Adjustable wrench

NOTE: It is easier to adjust the leveling legs if you have another person to assist you.

1. Move the ice maker to its final location. NOTE: If this is a built-in installation, move the ice maker as

close as possible to the final location.

2. Place the level on top of the product to see if the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side.

3. Push up on the top front of the ice maker, and then locate the leveling screws that are on the bottom front of the ice maker.

4. Using an adjustable wrench, change the height of the legs as follows:

■ Turn the leveling leg to the right to lower that side of the

ice maker.

■ Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that side of the ice

maker.

NOTE: The ice maker should not wobble. Use shims to add stability when needed.

5. Push up on the top rear of the ice maker and locate the leveling legs that are on the bottom rear of the ice maker.

6. Follow the instructions in Step 4 to change the height of the legs.

7. Use the level to recheck the ice maker to see that it is even from front to back and side to side. If the ice maker is not level, repeat steps 2 to 5. If the ice maker is level, go to the “Connect Water Supply” section.

Connect Water Supply

A B

Read all directions before you begin.

IMPORTANT:

■ Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the

International Plumbing Code and any local codes and ordinances.

■ Use copper tubing or Whirlpool supply line, Part Number

8212547RP, and check for leaks.

■ Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain

above freezing.

Tools needed

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation:

■ Flat-blade screwdriver

■ ⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches

■ ¹⁄₄" nut driver

NOTE: Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

Connecting the Water Line

1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long

enough to clear line of water.

2. Using a ¹⁄₂" copper supply line with a quarter-turn shutoff valve

or the equivalent, connect the ice maker as shown. NOTE: To allow sufficient water flow to the ice maker a

minimum ¹⁄₂" size copper supply line is recommended.

4. Place the free end of the tubing into a container or sink, and turn on main water supply and flush out tubing until water is clear. Turn off shutoff valve on the water pipe.

NOTE: Always drain the water line before making the final connection to the inlet of the water valve to avoid possible water valve malfunction.

5. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water line inlet which is located on the back of the ice maker cabinet as shown. Leave a coil of copper tubing to allow the ice maker to be pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service.

connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.

Drain Connection

Gravity Drain System

Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in accordance with all state and local codes and ordinances. If the ice maker is provided with a gravity drain system, follow these guidelines when installing drain lines. This will help keep water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage.

■ Drain lines must have a minimum of ⁵⁄₈" (15.88 mm) inside

diameter.

■ Drain lines must have a 1" drop per 48" (2.54 cm drop per

122 cm) of run or ¹⁄₄" drop per 12" (6.35 mm per 30.48 cm) of run and must not have low points where water can settle.

■ The floor drains must be large enough to accommodate

drainage from all drains.

■ The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 1¹⁄₂" (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.

■ It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly up to

the drain inlet.

Normal Sounds

Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces such as floors, walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them.

■ You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to

fill the water reservoir for each cycle.

■ Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or

the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also make noises.

■ The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high

pitched sound.

A. Hex-head hinge screw B. Hinge pin sleeve

C. Hinge D. Hinge pin

■ Water running over the evaporator plate may make a

splashing sound.

■ Water running from the evaporator plate to the water reservoir

may make a splashing sound.

■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the

refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.

■ You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the

condenser fan.

■ During the harvest cycle, you may hear a “thud” when the ice

sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.

■ When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water running

continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.

ICE MAKER USE

5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin is full, the ice

maker shuts off automatically and restarts when more ice is needed. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will occur. The amount of melting varies with room temperature.

NOTE: As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the amount of ice produced and stored. This means that higher operating temperatures result in reduced ice production.

How Your Ice Maker Works

When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing process takes about 5 minutes.

Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice storage bin will monitor the ice levels.

IMPORTANT:

■ If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to set

the ice maker control to OFF.

■ The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority

of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated.

The Ice Making Process

1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the

water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected. This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content.

2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is

released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the sheet into individual cubes.

Using the Controls

1. To start the normal ice making cycle, press ON.

2. To stop ice maker operation, press OFF.

NOTES:

■ Pressing the ON/OFF switch does not shut off power to

the ice maker.

■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard

the first batch produced.

Speed Ice Mode

Select the Speed Ice feature when you have an upcoming need for a large amount of ice and the ice bin is low or empty. The Speed Ice mode will produce a greater quantity of ice in a 24-hour period.

■ Press and hold SPEED ICE while the ice maker is on. The

indicator light will illuminate.

■ Press and hold SPEED ICE again to turn off the Speed Ice

feature. The indicator light will turn off.

Service

The service light indicates when service is needed. If the service light turns on, turn the ice maker off and back on. If the service light turns on again, call for service.

3. The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after

each freezing cycle.

4. Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.

Clean/Reset

The Clean/Reset Status light will help you know when it is time to clean your ice maker. The light will change to yellow. This tells you it is almost time to clean your ice maker. It is recommended that you clean the ice maker when the status light changes to red OR ice production decreases significantly. To clean your ice maker, see “Ice Maker System” in the “Cleaning” section.

ICE MAKER CARE

Cleaning

The ice making system and the air cooled condenser need to be cleaned regularly for the ice maker to operate at peak efficiency and to avoid premature failure of system components. See the “Ice Maker System” and the “Condenser” sections.

Exterior Surfaces

Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and gaskets with warm water and mild soap or detergent. Wipe and dry. Regular use of a good household appliance cleaner and wax will help maintain the finish. Do not use abrasive cleaners on enamel surfaces as they may scratch the finish.

For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Do not use chlorine bleach on the stainless steel surfaces.

Ice Maker System

Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often you need to clean the system depends upon how hard your water is. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal. (4 to 5 grains/

liter), you may need to clean the system as often as every

6months. NOTE: Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of approved ice maker

cleaner. To order, call 1-800-JENNAIR and ask for Part Number

4396808. In Canada, call 1-800-807-6777.

1. Press the selector switch to OFF.

2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the storage bin.

Remove all ice from the storage bin.

3. Unscrew the drain cap from the bottom of the water pan

located inside the storage bin as shown. Allow the water to drain completely.

4. Replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the drain

cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and you will have either thin ice or no ice.

5. Read and follow all handling information on the cleaner bottle

before completing the steps below. Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of approved ice maker cleaner.

6. Pour one bottle of solution into the water pan. Fill the bottle

twice with tap water and pour it into the water pan.

8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the drain cap

from the water pan. Look for any cleaning solution left in the water pan. If cleaning solution drains from the water pan, you should run the clean cycle again. Be sure to replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the drain cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and you will have either thin ice or no ice.

NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated cleaning with a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.

9. Push the selector switch to ON to resume ice production.

Condenser

A dirty or clogged condenser:

■ Obstructs proper airflow.

■ Reduces ice making capacity.

■ Causes higher than recommended operating temperatures

which may lead to component failure.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

Ice Maker Operation

Your ice maker will not operate

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.

■ Is the power cord plugged in? Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

■ Is the control set to ON? Be sure that the control is set to

ON.

■ Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker

tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.

8. If the room temperature will drop below 32°F (0°C), water must

be removed from the drain line.

For ice makers with a drain pump installed:

■ Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.

■ Turn ice maker off and remove all remaining ice from ice

bin.

■ Pour 1 qt (0.95 L) of water into the ice bin near the drain

and let the ice maker stand for approximately 5 minutes. This will allow the water in the bin to drain into the drain pump so that the pump will remove the remaining water from the ice bin and the drain pump.

■ Unplug ice maker or disconnect power.

9. Before using again, clean the ice maker and storage bin.

10. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. NOTE: All components of the ice maker are permanently

lubricated at the factory. They should not require any additional oiling throughout the normal life of the machine.

■ Is the room temperature cooler than normal? Room

temperature must be above 55°F (13°C). Otherwise, bin thermostat may sense cold room temperature and shut off even though the bin is not full of ice. The ice maker may not restart once it does shut off.

■ Does the green light come on when the Clean button is

pushed? The ice maker is receiving power but may need cleaning. See “Cleaning.”

■ Does the ice maker have a drain pump? If there was a large

amount of water added to the ice maker, wait a few minutes for the drain pump to clear. If there is still water in the bin, check to see whether the drain hose is kinked.

Ice maker seems noisy

■ Is water being circulated through the ice maker? This is

normal operation. Water is added once per ice-making cycle.

■ Is the water in the reservoir overflowing? This is normal.

This overflow helps to purge minerals that were removed from the water during the ice making process.

■ Is there a “whooshing” sound? Check the following things:

■ Make sure that the water supply is hooked up and turned

on.

■ Make sure that the drain cap is tight and the water drain

pan pump is securely attached to the water pan.

■ Is there ice between the evaporator plate and the cutting

grid? Check that the ice maker is level. See “Leveling.” If the ice maker is level, and the problem persists, run a cleaning cycle. See “Cleaning.”

Ice Production

■ Is the drain cap securely in place? If the drain cap is loose,

water will empty from the water pan, and you will have either thin ice or no ice. Tighten the drain cap if it is loose.

Ice maker runs but produces no ice

■ Is the control set to ON? Be sure that the control is set to

ON.

■ Is the water supply connected? Make sure the water supply

is properly connected and turned on.

■ Is the drain cap securely in place? If the drain cap is loose,

water will empty from the water pan, and you will have either thin ice or no ice. Tighten the drain cap.

■ Is there debris in the drain tube? Clean the drain tube.

■ Is there a kink in the drain line? Be sure that there are no

kinks in the line.

■ Is the service light flashing on and off continually? Call for

service.

Ice maker runs but produces very little ice

■ Is the accelerated ice production feature turned on? This

feature increases the ice production rate to provide you with more ice in the same amount of time. See “Using the Controls.”

■ Is the room temperature hotter than normal? Room

temperatures of more than 90°F (32°C) will normally reduce ice production.

WARNING

Grid is not cutting ice sheets

■ Is the cutter grid securely in place? Check the cutter grid

harness plug to make sure the connection is intact. See “Interior Components” section of “Cleaning” for instructions on cutter grid removal.

Ice Quality

Off taste, odor or gray color in the ice

■ Is there unusually high mineral content in the water

supply? The water may need to be filtered or treated.

■ Is there mineral scale buildup? Clean your ice maker. See

“Ice Maker System” in the “Cleaning” section.

■ Are there food items stored in the ice bin? Do not store any

foods in the ice bin.

■ Were all the packaging materials removed? Make sure that

all packaging materials were removed at the time of installation.

Thin, soft or clumps of ice

■ Is there unusually high mineral content in the water

supply? The water may need to be filtered or treated.

■ Is there mineral scale buildup? Clean your ice maker. See

“Ice Maker System” in the “Cleaning” section.

■ Are there clumps of ice in the bin? If ice is not used

regularly, it will melt and form clumps. Break the clumps with the ice scoop provided.

Electrical Shock Hazard Disconnect power before servicing. Replace all parts and panels before operating. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

■ Is the condenser dirty? Dirt or lint may be blocking the

airflow through the condenser. See “Condenser” in the “Cleaning” section.
