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.

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

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 230 VAC,
50 Hz, 8A 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.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to
the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.
If the detachable type electric supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by an equivalent cord available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.

PREPARE SITE
Your U-Line product has been designed for either free-
standing 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 an electrical and water
connection in the rear.
CAUTION
!
Units can NOT be installed behind a closed
cabinet door.
CUTOUT DIMENSIONS
It is extremely important that this 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.

Water Hookup
PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4" (6.35 mm)
compression fitting. U-Line recommends using accessory
water hook up kit – part # WATERHOOKUP. The kit
includes a 10' (3 m) braided flexible water supply line and
a brass hose fitting. When using a 1/4" (6.35 mm) O.D.
soft copper supply line use the brass nut and sleeve
included with the unit.
CAUTION
!
Plumbing installation must observe all state and
local codes. All water and drain connections
MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing
contractor. Failure to follow recommendations
and instructions may result in damage and/or
harm.
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.
Failure to follow recommendations and
instructions may result in damage and/or harm,
flooding or void the product warranty.
Use new hose set. Do not reuse old hose set.
Water Supply Connection
When connecting the water supply, please note the
following:
• Before installing the unit and connecting to the cold
water supply, review the local plumbing codes.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi
(138 and 827 kPa).
• The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the
supply line.
• The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will
allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing.
Make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged
during installation.
CAUTION
!
Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical
supply to unit prior to installation.
Use caution when handling back panel. The
edges could be sharp.
1. Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply
to product prior to attempting installation.
2. Remove the grille (plinth strip/base fascia) and access
panel (if equipped) along with back panel.
WARNING
!
Connect to potable water supply only.

3. Locate water
valve in the front
of the unit and
thread water
supply line
through.
Route the water
supply line
through the unit so it does not come into contact
with any internal components other than the
solenoid valve. Normal operation creates some
vibration. A water supply line contacting an
internal component or cabinet wall can cause
excessive noise during operation or damage to
the line.
4. On the back panel,
break away filler feature
in bushing with flat
screwdriver.
6. Turn on water supply and check for leaks.
7. Reinstall the grille (plinth strip/base fascia) and access
panel (if equipped) along with the back panel.
8. Install retaining clip.
5. Thread water line
through back panel hole
(with bushing).
