Anti-tip Bracket Installation for
Freestanding Installation
The icemaker may tip forward when the door is fully opened
if you apply weight to the top edge of the door. The anti-tip
bracket must be used if the icemaker does not have a
securely mounted countertop or cabinets installed
directly above it. The anti-tip bracket can be placed on
either the left or right back of the icemaker.
1. Adjust the height of the icemaker if necessary. Follow the
instructions in the “Leveling the Icemaker” section of the
Use and Care Guide.
2. Decide whether you want to install the anti-tip bracket on
the left or right back of the icemaker.
NOTE: You will need enough room behind the icemaker
to anchor the bracket securely to the floor. Make sure the
drain from the icemaker aligns with the floor drain you’ve
installed.
3. Using a 5/16" wrench, remove the hex washer head
screw from the bottom back of the icemaker (left or right
side as determined in Step 2).
4. Attach the anti-tip bracket, as shown, but do not tighten
the screw completely.
Before Y ou Begin:
A qualified service technician must perform installation.
Cutting Notes
1. Match woodgrain direction with that of adjacent cabinets.
IMPORTANT: Use moisture resistant sealer on both sides
and all edges of wood panels to protect from humidity.
