DRAIN INSTALLATION
PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install or operate the unit. All Ice Makers require a connection to the water supply and improper hook-up can result in substantial property damage! All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.
! CAUTION
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.
The CLR60 can be installed using a gravity drain or can use a factory installed or equivalent drain pump.
Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/or potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage:
Gravity Drain
•Drain lines must have a 5/8 inch inside diameter.
•Drain lines must have a 1 inch drop per 48 inches of run (1/4 inch per foot) and must not create traps.
•The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains.
•Insulate the bin drain line to prevent condensation.
CLR60 With Factory Installed Drain Pump
NOTE
Before installing your U-Line CLR60 With Factory Installed Pump, it is extremely important to check and test all hose connections at the drain pump There is a possibility that hose connections may have loosened during shipment.

5.Place a suitable container beneath the pump’s discharge tube. (The bucket must be able to hold a minimum of one gallon.)
! WARNING !
Back panel serves as a guard. DO NOT put your hands inside the ice maker cabinet or attempt to touch any components except the discharge tube during testing. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury or death.
6.Plug the ice maker power cord into a properly grounded, polarized electrical outlet.
7.Verify pump operation by pouring one gallon of water into the ice storage bin of the ice maker. The pump should energize and pump the water into the container.
8.At this time, verify that all tube and clamp connections are tight and leak free.
9.Unplug unit power cord from electrical outlet.
10.Leave back panel off for water line installation.
11.Continue to the next step in the installation process, SITE PREPARATION.
CONNECTING A DRAIN PUMP
Connecting A Drain Pump
If a gravity drain connection is not available, and you have not purchased the CLR60 with factory installed pump, install the U-Line P60 drain pump in the rear compartment of the ice maker. The U-Line P60 drain pump is available through your Dealer, or direct from U-Line with complete installation instructions.
If a gravity drain connection is not available, and you have not purchased the CLR60 with factory installed pump, U-Line strongly recommends the use of the U-Line P60 drain pump. If a pump other than the U-Line P60 drain pump is to be used, it must meet the following specifications:
•It must be UL listed and have a UL listed, 120 VAC, 3-wire grounded power cord.
7 
User’s Manual
•Overall maximum outside dimensions of 8-3/4" wide x 5-3/4" deep
x7-3/4" high.
•Minimum flow rate of 15 gallons per hour at 10 feet of lift.
•It must have a sealed sump which does not allow water leakage in the case of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure.
•It must have a check valve in the discharge line to prevent waste water return to the pump.
•It must have an overflow protection control which will shut off power to the ice maker in the event of a pump failure.
•Operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F (10°C to 40°C).
In the event of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure, the failure to use the U-Line P60 drain pump or a pump with the above listed specifications, could result in substantial water leakage and pooling with severe and costly water damage and related consequential damages and harm.
SITE PREPARATION
1.Position the unit on a flat, level surface, capable of supporting the entire weight of the unit. Remember that the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded.
NOTE
It is extremely important that the unit is level. If it is not level, the ice mold will not fill evenly. This can cause a reduction in ice rate, uneven sized cubes or water spilling into the storage area which will cause the ice in the bin to melt prematurely. Remember that floors near drains have a tendency to slope towards the drain.
2.The surrounding air temperature must be at least 50°F (10°C) but must not exceed 110°F (40°C).
3.The unit must not be located near heat-generating equipment or in direct sunlight.
4.The unit must be located to allow clearance for water, drain and electrical connections in the rear of the ice maker.
5.Connect the unit to a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60 Hz, 15A circuit (normal household current).

! WARNING !
NEVER use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Electrical Grounding Required. This appliance is equipped with a three prong (grounding) polarized plug for your protection against possible shock hazards.
! WARNING !
Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug.
Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced with a three-prong receptacle in accordance with
applicable electrical codes.
NOTE
Keep in mind that the door of the unit may be mounted on either side of the cabinet (see REVERSING THE DOOR). All U-Line units have a zero clearance for the door to open (see Figure 2).

•Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.
•In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the basement through a hole in the floor.
•The water pressure should be 20-120 psi.
