follow these general precautions along with those listed
throughout this guide:

WARNING

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.

Cut-Out Dimensions

IMPORTANT

It is extremely important that the unit sits on a level
surface, as it does not have feet levelers. If it is not level,
the ice mold will not fill evenly.
