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.
Location Requirements
■ 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 ¹⁄₄ 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.

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 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 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.

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, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to
have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
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.
Tools required
Carpenter’s level
■
Adjustable wrench
■
■ ¹⁄₄ in. 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.
It is easier to adjust the leveling legs if you have another
NOTE:
person to assist you.
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.
Push up on the top front of the ice maker, and then locate the
2.
leveling screws that are on the bottom front of the product.
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.
The ice maker should not wobble. Use shims to add
NOTE:
stability when needed.
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.

Freestanding installation
If you are not installing your ice maker under a countertop, you
will probably not need to adjust the rear wheel height. Follow the
steps outlined in “To adjust the front leveling legs” earlier in this
section.
The ice maker should not wobble. Use shims to add
NOTE:
stability when needed.
Water Supply Connection
Read all directions carefully before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing
■
codes requirements.
Use copper tubing and check for leaks.
■
Install copper tubing only in areas where temperatures will
■
remain above freezing.
Tools required
Standard screwdriver
■
⁷⁄₁₆ in. and ¹⁄₂ in. open-end wrenches or two adjustable
■
wrenches
¹⁄₄ in. nut driver
■
¹⁄₄ in. drill bit
■
Hand drill or electric drill properly grounded
■
Your ice maker dealer has a kit available with a ¹⁄₄ in.
NOTE:
(6.35 mm) saddle-type shut-off valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or ³⁄₁₆ in.
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
