Environmental Requirements
This model is intended for indoor/interior applications only
and is not to be used in installations that are open/
exposed to natural elements.
This unit is designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) and
100°F (38°C). Higher ambient temperatures may reduce
the unit’s ability to reach low temperatures and/or reduce
ice production on applicable models.
For best performance, keep the unit out of direct sunlight
and away from heat generating equipment.
In climates where high humidity and dew points are
present, condensation may appear on outside surfaces.
This is considered normal. The condensation will
evaporate when the humidity drops.
CAUTION
!
Damages caused by ambient temperatures of
40°F (4°C) or below are not covered by the
warranty.

WARNING
!
SHOCK HAZARD — Electrical Grounding
Required. Never attempt to repair or perform
maintenance on the unit until the electricity has
been disconnected.
Never remove the round grounding prong from
the plug and never use a two-prong grounding
adapter.
Altering, cutting or removing power cord,
removing power plug, or direct wiring can cause
serious injury, fire, loss of property and/or life,
and will void the warranty.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to
the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.
Electrical installation must observe all state and
local codes. This unit requires connection to a
grounded (three-prong), polarized receptacle
that has been placed by a qualified electrician.
The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC,
60 Hz, 15A power supply (normal household current). An
individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended. A GFCI (ground fault circuit
interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location
appliances and is not recommended for your unit because
it could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure
to consult your local codes.
See CUTOUT DIMENSIONS for recommended receptacle
location.

Side-by-Side Installation
Two units may be installed side-by-side.
Cutout width for a side-by-side installation is the cutout
dimension of a single unit times two.
No trim kit is required. However, 1/4" (6 mm) of space
needs to be maintained between the units to ensure
unobstructed door swing.
Units must operate from separate, properly grounded
electrical receptacles placed according to each unit’s
electrical specifications requirements.
Side-by-Side Installation with Bracket
1. Slide both units out so screws on top of units are easily
accessible.
3. Place bracket over holes and attach to unit with two
screws removed in step 2 using a T-25 Torx driver.
Tighten screws fully.
4. Gently push units into position. Be careful not to
entangle the electrical cord or water line, if applicable.
5. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to
side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top
surface should be approximately 1/8" (3 mm) below
the countertop.
2. Remove screws as shown below.

LEVELING INFORMATION
1. Use a level to
confirm the unit is
level. Level should
be placed along top
edge and side edge
as shown.
2. If the unit is not level, adjust the legs on the corners of
the unit as necessary.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord.
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to
entangle the cord.
3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to
side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top
surface should be approximately 1/8" (3 mm) below
the countertop.
4. Remove the interior packing material and wipe out the
inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.
3. Confirm the unit is level after each adjustment and
repeat the previous steps until the unit is level.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cutout
opening, adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear
height of 1/8" (3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height.
Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front
legs. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the
opening. Readjust the front legs to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.

Integrated Frame
Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the
panel may not perfectly align with door. The
procedure below is designed to provide a
finished integrated panel that seamlessly
integrates with surrounding cabinetry.
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.
When applying an integrated panel to a unit,
ensure that both sides are finished in order to
prevent warping. In some frame installations,
the panel may be visible through the glass while
the door is open.
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.
Integrated Frame Dimensions
A full integrated door panel completely covers the door
frame and provides a built-in appearance.
Integrated Frame Preparation
1. Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the diagram
below.

It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are
drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid
splits in the wood when hardwood is installed.
8. Locate 6 of the #6x 1-1/4" (32 mm) screws provided
with your unit.
9. Using a Phillips screwdriver, place one screw into each
of the 6 pilot holes and screw down. Do not overtighten
screws.

Door Stop
Your U-Line unit was shipped to you with the optional
90° pin(s). (Models that are 15" wide include 1 pin. Models
that are 24" wide include 2 pins.) The unit’s door will open
freely without a fixed opening angle limitation. If you
would like the door stop at 90° follow these instructions.
The pin is designed to stop the door at 90° under
normal operating conditions. It is not designed
for excessive force. Do not use the door to move
the unit in/out of the cutout during installation.
If your unit is already undercounter, it might
need to be moved out/forward to access the
hinge.
1. Locate the threaded pin.
3. On 24" models, a second pin is included for the bottom
hinge. Repeat steps above for second hinge.
NOTE: Threaded pin will be inserted from the bottom.
4. Carefully slide your unit back in place.
2. With the door between 0° (closed) and 90° and using a
3/32" hex driver, install the threaded pin through the
hinge.
The pin can be removed to return the door swing
back to its original state by unscrewing the
threaded pin.
