2 Inspect and Plan
You have received a carton containing your CO1175 Ice
Maker/Refrigerator with a package inside containing a
User Manual, a Product Registration Card and water
connection parts. Complete and mail the Product
Registration Card or register online at
www.U-LineService.com. Once your unit is installed, keep
the User Manual and this Installation Guide in a safe place
for future reference.
CO1175 units are available in Black or Stainless. Black
units have a vinyl-clad cabinet with matching door.
Stainless models have a stainless steel door, and a black
cabinet. All Black CO1175 unit doors have a slightly
contoured handle across the top and are reversible. These
doors have recessed front panels that will accept a custom
1/4 inch thick door panel. Stainless unit doors are covered
with a protective coating and have beed ordered left-or
right-hand hinged. The Stainless doors are not reversable
and do not accept custom panels. All CO1175 units have
tempered glass shelves.
Please carefully follow the directions that apply to your
unit and your intended design.

Exterior Cleaning
(As Required)
Black Models:
• Black surfaces may be cleaned with a mild detergent
and warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or
abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with
clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent
water spotting.
Stainless Models:
• Stainless door panels and handles can discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or
cleaners with bleach.
• Keep your Stainless unit looking new by cleaning with
a good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish
on a monthly basis. For best results use Claire Stainless
Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from
U-Line Corporation. (The part number is 173348.)
Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent
cleaning will remove surface contamination that could
lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning
on a weekly basis.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads.
• Do not use cleaners that are not specifically
intended for stainless steel on stainless surfaces
(this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).
• If any surface discolors or rusting appears, clean it
quickly with Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser
and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction
of the grain. Always finish this process with Claire
Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable
product to prevent further problems.
• Use of abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite will
cause the graining in the stainless to become
blurred.
• Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the
surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of
the rust may not be possible.
3 Prepare Site
Your U-Line product has been designed for either freestanding or built-in installation. When built-in, your unit
does not require additional air space for top, sides or rear.
However, the front grille must NOT be obstructed and
clearance is required for water and electrical connections
in the rear.
Note: Unit can NOT be installed behind a closed cabinet
door.
