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.

PREPARE SITE
Your U-Line product has been designed exclusively for a
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.
The product is designed and manufactured for seamless
integration in the specified cutout opening shown, which
requires precise measurements. The opening must be
square and plumb front to back. Although not required,
you may choose to increase the overall cutout width for
ease of installation.
The Modular 3000 Series units are engineered with a
variety of adjustment features to help ensure a seamless
installation. Adjustable doors, leveling legs and grille will
assist in fine tuning the installation.

which comes attached. The water line is fitted with a
standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) compression fitting.
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.

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.

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.

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.

Use only U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner (Part No.
37050), available from your dealer or direct from
your local parts distributor. To locate a parts
distributor near you, visit www.u-line.com. It is
a violation of federal law to use this solution in a
manner inconsistent with its labeling. Use of any
other cleaner can ruin the finish of the
evaporator and will void the warranty. Read and
understand all labels printed on the package
before use.
U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner is used to remove lime scale
and other mineral deposits. Refer to the following steps to
initiate the self-cleaning cycle.
CAUTION
!
Never use anything to force ice from the
evaporator. Damage may result.
5. Re-install the standpipe into the water trough.
6. Clean the Interior Bin as follows:
• Dilute one packet of CLR cleaner into two quarts of
water.
• Using a sponge or cloth, clean interior of ice bin,
tubing and door. This cleaner will remove all mineral
deposits and other contaminants from the surfaces.
1. Switch the ice maker
off and allow any ice
to melt off of the
evaporator.
2. Remove all ice from

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

IF SERVICE IS REQUIRED
If you do not understand a troubleshooting remedy, or
your product needs service, contact U-Line Corporation

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to
provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound
reduction for its internal working components. Despite this
technology, your model may make sounds that are
unfamiliar.
Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable because
of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as cabinets,
wood, vinyl or tiled floors and paneled walls have a
tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.
Listed below are common refrigeration components with a
brief description of the normal operating sounds they
make. NOTE: Your product may not contain all the
components listed.
• Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing
sound that may be heard when it operates.
• Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator
may sound like boiling liquid.
• Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may
be heard.
• Solenoid Valves: An occasional clicking sound may be
heard as solenoid valves are operated.
