Removing packaging materials
Remove tape and glue from your ice maker before using.
• To remove any remaining tape or glue, 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. 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. See the cleaning instructions in
the "Ice Maker Care" section.
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front side
must be completely unobstructed. The unit 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 % in. (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing with a shut-off 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 100°F (38°C). Best results are obtained
between 70°F (21 °C) and 90°F (32°C). This unit MUST be
installed in an area protected from the elements, such as
wind, rain, water spray, or drip.
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.
1. Recommended Location for Electrical and Plumbing Fixtures.
(38.1 crn)
2. Floor Level
You should 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 position of the rear wheels. See the
"Leveling" section.

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 ampere 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.
![](/html/25/254e/254e8bb37eef0bfe6209e84d21acfab3682abe86f0fc67de8f7107d670bc680d/bg5.png)
Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This
appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong
grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, 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, itis the personal responsibility of the customer to
have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
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.
Tools required
• Carpenter's level
• Adjustable wrench
• 1/4in. socket wrench
Undercounter installation
If you are installing the ice maker under a countertop, then you
may need to adjust the height of the ice maker. The adjustable
rear wheels are preset to position 1 for a cabinet opening height
of 34 in. (86.4 cm).
To adjust the front leveling legs
Your ice maker has two adjustable leveling legs to help you
steady the product and make sure it is level.
NOTE: It is easier to adjust the leveling legs if you have another
person to assist you.
1. Place a carpenter's level on top of the product to see if the ice
maker is level from front to back and side to side.
2. Push up on the top front of the ice maker, and then locate the
leveling screws that are on the bottom front of the product.
3. 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.
4.
Use a carpenter's level to re-check 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 and 3. If the ice maker is level, go to
the "Water Supply Connection" section.

2=
Find a 1/2in. (12.70 mm) to 11/4in. (3.18 cm) vertical cold water
pipe near the ice maker•
NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the following procedure
must be followed: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the
bottom• This will help keep water away from the drill• This
also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
3. Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4in. (6.35 mm) hole in the cold
water pipe you have selected.
4. Fasten shut-off valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp• Be
sure outlet end is solidly in the 1/4in. (6.35 mm) drilled hole in
the water pipe and that washer is under the pipe clamp.
Tighten packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully
and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not
overtighten the pipe clamp or you may crush cold water pipe
if it is soft copper tubing. Do not use a piercing-type or 3A6in.

Connecting the drain
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 prevent 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 % in. (15.88 mm) inside
diameter.
Drain lines must have a I in. drop per 48 in. (2.54 cm drop per
122 cm) of run or 1/4in. drop per 12 in. (6.35 mm per
30.48 cm) 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 11/2in. (3.81 cm)
to 2 in. (5.08 cm) PVC drain reducer installed directly below
the outlet of the drain tube as shown. You must maintain a
1 in. (2.54 cm) air gap between the drain pump hose and the
standpipe.
• It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly up to
the drain inlet.
After ensuring that the drain system is adequate, follow these
steps to properly place the ice maker:
f. Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
2. Re-check the ice maker to be sure that it is level. See the
"Leveling" section.
3. Push the ice maker into position so that the ice maker drain
tube is positioned over the PVC drain reducer.

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
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 five 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 OFR
• 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 clear sheet of ice with a low mineral content.
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 like the floor, 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.
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.
3. The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after
each freezing cycle.
![](/html/25/254e/254e8bb37eef0bfe6209e84d21acfab3682abe86f0fc67de8f7107d670bc680d/bg9.png)
4,
Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.
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.
ICE MAKER CARE
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 prevent 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 protect 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.
1. Tostart ice production, select ON. Allow 24 hours to produce
the first batch of ice, and discard the first three batches of ice
produced.
• To start the normal ice making cycle, select ON. Press the
NORM ICE switch. Normal ice production should produce
approximately 25 Ibs. (11.4 kg) of ice in a 24-hour period.
• To start the maximum ice production cycle, select ON.
Press the TWICE ICE switch. The ice maker will then
produce approximately 50 Ibs. (22.7 kg) of ice in a 24-
hour period. This cycle should be selected when you have
an upcoming need for a lot of clear, clean ice and the ice
bin is low to empty.
2. To stop ice maker operation, select OFF.

NOTE: The CLEAN CYCLE setting is used whenever solutions
are circulated through the ice maker for cleaning. Only the water
pump and compressor operate at this setting. See the "Cleaning"
section.
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 6 months.
NOTE: Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of NU-CALGON* Nickel
Safe Ice Machine Cleaner.
1. Push 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)
