Water Hookup

PREPARE PLUMBING

The water valve uses a standard 1/4" (6.35 mm)

compression fitting. U-Line recommends using accessory

water hook up kit – part # WATERHOOKUP. The kit

includes a 10' (3 m) braided flexible water supply line and

a brass hose fitting. When using a 1/4" (6.35 mm) O.D.

soft copper supply line use the brass nut and sleeve

included with the unit.

WARNING

!

Prior to installation, determine if this product

contains a gravity style drain or factory installed

drain pump. Products without a drain pump may

only use a gravity style drain. Failure to connect

water supply or drain line connections properly

may result in water leakage, personal injury,

and/or property damage. Disconnect power and

turn off water to the unit before attempting to

alter these connections. These connections are

the responsibility of the owner and must be

connected per local plumbing code. If you are

uncertain of how to safely and properly install

this product, contact a licensed plumber.

CAUTION

!

Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line

is under pressure at all times. Plastic may crack

or rupture with age and cause damage to your

home.

Do not use tape or joint compound when

attaching a braided flexible water supply line

that includes a rubber gasket. The gasket

provides an adequate seal – other materials

could cause blockage of the valve.

Failure to follow recommendations and

instructions may result in damage and/or harm,

flooding or void the product warranty.

CAUTION

!

Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical

supply to unit prior to installation.

Use caution when handling back panel. The

edges could be sharp.

Water Supply Connection

WARNING

!

Connect to potable water supply only.

CAUTION

!

DRAIN CONNECTION

CAUTION

!

If your U-Line unit did not come with a factory

installed drain pump you must use a gravity

style drain connection. For assistance in

determining if your unit has a pump please

contact U-Line. The floor drain must be large

enough to accommodate drainage from all

attached drains. 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, which may

result in personal injury or property damage.

GRAVITY DRAIN

A gravity drain may be used if:

Drain line has at least a 1" drop per 48" (approximately

2 cm drop per 100 cm) of run.

Drain line does not create traps and is vented per local

code.

1. Cut the pre-installed drain tube to length.

Drain can NOT be located directly below the unit.

Unit has a solid base that will not allow the unit

to drain below itself.

There is a possibility that hose connections may

have loosened during shipment.

Verify all connections and fittings are free from

leaks.

2. Connect to your local plumbing per the local code.

3. If necessary, insulate drain line to prevent

condensation.

CAUTION

!

Failure to connect water supply or drain line

connections properly can result in personal

injury and property damage. Gravity drain

connections must be routed downward from the

rest of the unit at the rate of 1/4" per foot (1 cm

per 50 cm).

HANDLELESS INTEGRATED DOOR PANEL

The following procedure is designed to provide a finished,

handleless solid panel for an 18" (450 mm) door that

seamlessly integrates with its surrounding cabinetry.

NOTE: Many cabinet manufacturers provide a ready

solution for a handleless, integrated design that can be

easily applied to your U-Line 3000 Series model. Consult

your cabinet manufacturer for applicable design and

installation details. The cabinet manufacturer’s solution to

this design and integration detail will often result in an

integrated panel solution wherein the size of the panel

may result in a height dimension taller than what we

specify. This can be achieved provided the additional

height is positioned above the appliance door.

The integrated panel aligns with the surrounding

cabinetry and, due to differences in cabinetry,

may not align perfectly with the door.

EXTENDED INTEGRATED PANEL

Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the

panel may not perfectly align with door. The

procedure below is designed to provide a

finished panel that seamlessly integrates with

surrounding cabinetry.

Panel Preparation

An extended integrated panel can be used to maintain

alignment with an adjacent extended cabinet height or a

reduced toe-kick/grille application.

1. Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the

appropriate diagram on the next page.

2. Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.

Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by

the manufacturer.

3. Optional: Install handles and hardware.

The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs

(10 kg).

It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are

drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid

splits in the wood when hardware is installed.

Appliance will need up to 34-1/2" (876 mm) to

the underside of the counter to leave room for

leveling adjustments.

When applying an integrated panel to a unit,

ensure that both sides are finished in order to

prevent warping. In some installations, the

panel may be visible through the glass while the

door is open.

ICE CUBE THICKNESS ADJUSTMENT

Ice thickness adjustment should only be made

one increment at a time. Allow ice maker

production to stabilize for 24 hours before

rechecking ice thickness.

Remove all ice from the storage bin.

Ice cubes in any given batch will vary, so it is necessary

to choose cubes from the sample area for comparison

when making adjustments.

The ice cube thickness is factory set for best overall

performance. The factory setting “0” is designed to

maintain an ice bridge of approximately 1/16" to 1/8"

(1.6 mm to 3.2 mm) under normal conditions, resulting in

a dimple of approximately 1/4" to 1/2" (6.4 mm to

12.7 mm) in depth. A fuller cube with less of a dimple

results in a thicker ice bridge. As the ice bridge thickens,

the tendency for the cubes to stay together as a slab

increases. A bridge thicker than 1/8" (3.2 mm) may cause

cubes to overfill the ice bucket.

Stainless door panels and handles can discolor when

exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or

cleaners with bleach.

Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a

good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner and polish

monthly. For best results use Claire

Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line

Corporation (Part Number 173348). Comparable products

are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface

contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations

may require cleaning weekly.

Do not clean with steel wool pads.

Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on
any glass surfaces.

Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass

cleaner.

Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for

INTERIOR CLEANING

Disconnect electric current to the unit.

Clean the interior and all removed components using a

mild nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution

applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.

Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.

Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive

cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste to

the interior products and damage or discolor the lining.

CLEAR ICE MAKER CLEANING CYCLE

The 3000 series ice maker is equipped with an automatic

clean alert function. Cleaning cycles should be run as

notified. Otherwise, to maintain operational efficiency, the

unit should be cleaned every three months. Depending on

water conditions, more frequent cleaning may be

necessary. If the ice maker requires more frequent

cleaning, consult a plumber to test the water quality and

recommend appropriate treatment.

If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it

quickly with Bon-Ami

a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always

finish with Claire

comparable product to prevent further problems.

Using abrasive pads such as ScotchBrite™ will
cause the graining in the stainless steel to
become blurred.

Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the
surface of the stainless steel and complete
removal of the rust may not be possible.

9. When water begins flowing over the evaporator

(approximately 3 minutes), pour 1 packet of CLR

cleaner into the water trough. The cleaning process will

last approximately 45 minutes.

10.Dilute 1 tablespoon (15 ml) bleach in 1 gallon

(3.8 liters) of warm water. Apply this solution to the

entire inside of the storage area. Then rinse thoroughly

with water.

The unit will resume operation approximately 15 minutes

after the automated cleaning process is completed. The

water fill valve will energize, fill the water reservoir, and

shut-off after three minutes. The compressor begins to

operate and water flows over the evaporator assembly (ice

mold). Initially, the water flow may not be uniform,

causing uneven sized cubes or water to spill into the ice

storage bin. This is a normal situation that will correct

itself within the first 24 hours of operation.

Discard all ice produced in the first harvest.

Should power to the unit be interrupted during

the self-clean cycle, the complete cleaning cycle

will repeat after power is restored.

REFRESH KIT

Due to variations in water quality or inadequate

maintenance your unit may become excessively coated in

lime scale or calcium. U-Line offers a cost effective

refresh kit which replaces many interior components and

will return your unit to like new condition. Refresh kits

may be ordered from your local distributor and installed

by your local service company. For information on your

Thermistors

Thermistors are used for various temperature readings.

Thermistors provide reliable temperature readings using a

resistance which varies based on surrounding

temperatures. If a faulty thermistor is suspected it may

be tested using an accurate ohmmeter.

There are 3 thermistors used with this model.

• Ice Bin Thermistor - Located on the right hand wall and

is used to maintain ice level in bin.

• Liquid Line Thermistor - Located on the liquid line and

is used during freeze/harvest.

• Ambient Thermistor - Located in the base of the unit on

the condenser and is used to monitor ambient air

temperatures.

This unit utilizes two type one thermistors, one in the bin

and one in the mechanical compartment.

The bin thermistor and the ambient thermistor are both

type 1 thermistors. In an ice water bath they should OHM

out at 16.5k +/-5%.

The liquid line thermistor is a type two thermistor. At 77°

it should OHM out at 10k OHMS +/-5%.

Thermistor connections must be kept clean. A thermistor

connection that has become corroded can cause

resistance values from the thermistor to change as they

pass through a dirty connection to the board.

If you change a thermistor in the unit please re-apply die

electric grease to the connection. If you encounter a dirty

thermistor connection, you should replace the thermistor

and the thermistor harness.
