WARNING

User’s Manual
Warning means that failure to follow this safety statement may result in extensive product damage, serious personal injury, or death.
Caution means that failure to follow this safety statement may result in minor or moderate personal injury, property or equipment damage.
• Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected.
• Altering, cutting of power cord, removal of power cord, removal of power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire and/or loss of property and/or life and will void the warranty.
• Do not lift unit by door handle.
• Never use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture the inner lining or damage cooling unit.
• Failure to clean the condenser every three months can cause the unit to malfunction. This could void the warranty.
• Never install the unit behind closed doors. Be sure front grill is free of obstruction. Obstructing free air flow can cause the unit to malfunction, and may void the warranty.

• Using a heater to speed up defrosting can cause per-
sonal injury and damage to the inner lining. DO NOT use any type of electrical heater to defrost.
• Use only genuine U-Line replacement parts. Imitation
parts can reduce ice rate, cause water to overflow from ice maker mold, damage the unit, and may void the war­ranty.
INSTALLATION
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.
2. Connect the unit to a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60Hz, 15A circuit (normal household current).
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.
• Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug.
• Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
• Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, con-
tact a qualified electrician to have it replaced with a 3-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 when the handle is on the right (see Figure 1). Additional clearance is need­ed for Combo Models 29A, 29FF, 75A, and 75FF only, when the door handle is on the left. See BUILT-IN INSTAL­LATION for additional clear­ance requirements for these models.
3. On Ice Maker models SP18, BI-15, BI-95, BI-98 and Combo Series 29 and 75, install a 1/4 inch copper water line (not supplied with unit) from the nearest COLD water pipe. When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:
• 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 between 15 and 150 psi.
• Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch supply line.
• Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be
moved for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.
• U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation.
4. Position the unit to allow free air flow through the front grill (see Figure 2).
5. Wipe out inside of unit and ice bucket with a damp cloth.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

3. Carefully bend the water sup­ply line into position and con­nect the line to the solenoid valve (see Figures 5 and 6). Avoid kinking the water sup­ply line.

Figure 4
1. Install the 1/4 inch copper water line from the main water source. On ice maker models BI-95 and BI-98, the water line is inserted through the hole in the rear of the unit to connect to the solenoid valve in the front (see Figure 3).
2. Locate the compression fit­ting and ferrule packed in the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4 inch water supply line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line (see Figure 4).

4. For recessed installations, allow extra water supply line length to provide slack for easy removal from the recessed area (see Figure 7). This will also safeguard against kinking the line.
NOTE
After completing the installation, turn on the water and recheck water connection for leaks. Apply additional tight­ening if needed. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape.
7
NOTE
If you are not intending to use the ice maker and do not connect the water supply (or turn the supply valve off), it is imperative to raise the bin arm of the ice maker (see Figure
8).
NOTE
On Models BI-95 and BI-98, route the water supply line through the unit in such a way as to prevent the line from coming in contact with any internal components other than the solenoid valve (see Figure 6). Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply line contacting an internal component or cabinet wall may cause excessive noise dur­ing operation or damage to the line.
5. Install the grill. See GRILL INSTALLATION.
6. Plug in the power cord.
7. Gently push the unit into position. If desired the unit may be recessed into cabinet or wall. Model PBCM-98 is free standing and cannot be permanently recessed, but can be pushed under a counter.

8. Allow at least 1-1/2 inches clearance behind the unit for electri­cal and water supply connections.
LEVELING THE UNIT
It is important that the unit, primarily the ice maker assembly, is level. All 75 and 15 Series units are equipped with adjustable feet for level­ing and height adjustment (see Figure 9). All other units have rubber feet.
Figure 9
GRILL INSTALLATION
NOTE
Model SP18 Icemakers come with the grill already installed.
1. With a standard blade screwdriver (or 1/4” nutdriver), remove the screw needed to attach the grill (see Figure 10).
2. Remove the control knob by pulling it toward you.
3. Carefully remove the grill from inside the unit. A small screw hole is located toward the top of the middle recessed section of the grill.
