Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
■ To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front side
must be completely unobstructed. The ice maker may be
closed-in on the top and three sides, but the installation
should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for servicing
if necessary.
■ Installation of the ice maker requires a cold water supply inlet
of ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing with a shutoff valve or
a Whirlpool supply line Part Number 8212547RB, and a
Whirlpool approved drain pump, Part Number 1901A, only to
carry the water to an existing drain.
■ Choose a well ventilated area with temperatures above 55°F
(13°C) and below 110°F (43°C). Best results are obtained
between 70°F and 90°F (21ºC and 32°C).
■ The ice maker must be installed in an area sheltered from the
elements, such as wind, rain, water spray, or drip.
■ When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the
recommended opening dimensions shown. Place electrical
and plumbing fixtures in the recommended location as
shown.
NOTES:
■ Check that the power supply cord is not damaged, or
pinched or kinked between the ice maker and the
cabinet.
■ Check that the water supply line is not damaged, or
pinched or kinked between the ice maker and the
cabinet.
■ Check that the drain line (on some models) is not
damaged, or pinched or kinked between the ice maker
and the cabinet.
Electrical Requirements
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection:
A 115 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply,
properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice
maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off
by a switch or pull chain.
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the
power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality
may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the
condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it.
Recommended Grounding Method
The ice maker must be grounded. The ice maker is equipped with
a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. The cord
must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type wall
receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle
is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to
have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
A. Recommended location for electrical and plumbing fixtures
B. Floor level
■ Choose a location where the floor is even. It is important for
the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. If needed,
you can adjust the height of the ice maker by changing the
height of the leveling legs. See “Leveling.”
4
Water Supply Requirements
Check that the water supply lines are insulated against freezing
conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase water
pressure and damage your ice maker or home. Damage from
frozen supply lines is not covered by the warranty.
A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and
120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If
you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT:
■ A reverse osmosis water filtration system is not
recommended for ice makers that have a drain pump
installed.
■ For gravity drain systems only.
■ The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse

C
B
osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the ice
maker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and
827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
NOTE: The reverse osmosis system must provide 1 gal. (3.8 L) of
water per hour to the ice maker for proper ice maker operation. If
a reverse osmosis system is desired, only a whole-house
capacity reverse osmosis system, capable of maintaining the
steady water supply required by the ice maker, is recommended.
Faucet capacity reverse osmosis systems are not able to
maintain the steady water supply required by the ice maker.
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
■ Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse
osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill
after heavy usage.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.
Vacation or Extended Time
Without Use
■ When you will not be using the ice maker for an extended
period of time, turn off the water and power supply to the ice
maker.
■ Check that the water supply lines are insulated against
freezing conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can
increase water pressure and cause damage to your ice maker
or home. Damage from freezing is not covered by the
warranty.
Connect Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
■ Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the
International Plumbing Code and any local codes and
ordinances.
■ Use copper tubing or Whirlpool supply line, Part Number
8212547RP, and check for leaks.
■ Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will remain
above freezing.
Tools Needed
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation:
■ Flat-blade screwdriver
■ ⁷⁄₁₆" and ¹⁄₂" open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches

ICE MAKER USE
How Your Ice Maker Works
When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the
system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing
process takes about 5 minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at
preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice
storage bin will monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT: If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off,
be sure to set the ice maker control to OFF.
12
The Ice Making Process
1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the
water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected.
This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content.
2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is
released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the
sheet into individual cubes.
3. The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after
each freezing cycle.
4. Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.
Using the Controls
1. To start ice production, press ON/OFF.
2. To stop ice maker operation, press ON/OFF.
5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin is full, the ice
maker shuts off automatically and restarts when more ice is
needed. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will
occur. The amount of melting varies with room temperature.
NOTE: As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the
amount of ice produced and stored. This means that higher
operating temperatures result in reduced ice production.
■ Press FAST ICE while the ice maker is on. The indicator light
will illuminate.
■ Press FAST ICE again to turn off the Fast Ice feature. The
indicator light will turn off.
■ The Fast Ice mode will be on when you first turn on the
product. It will turn off after 24 hours. To turn Fast Ice back
on, press FAST ICE.
NOTES:
■ Pressing the On/Off button does not shut off power to the ice
maker.
■ Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first 2 batches produced.
Fast Ice Mode
Select the Fast Ice feature when you have an upcoming need for
a large amount of ice and the ice bin is low or empty. Fast Ice
mode will produce a greater quantity of ice in a 24-hour period.
Normal Sounds
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to
you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be
concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces such as floors, walls and cabinets can make the sounds
seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the
kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be
making them.
■ You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to
fill the water pan for each cycle.
■ Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or
the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also
make noises.
■ The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high
pitched sound.
■ Water running over the evaporator plate may make a
splashing sound.
Clean
It is recommended that you clean the ice maker when the
“Cleaning Needed” light is illuminated or 9 months has elapsed
or ice production decreases significantly. To clean your ice maker,
see “Ice Maker System” in the “Cleaning” section.
Door Ajar Alarm
The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the ice maker
door is open for 5 minutes. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes.
Close the door to turn off. The feature then resets and will
reactivate when the door is left open again for 5 minutes.
■ Water running from the evaporator plate to the water pan may
make a splashing sound.
■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.
■ You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
■ During the harvest cycle, you may hear a “thud” when the ice
sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.
■ When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water
running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a
rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
■ If the ice maker is connected to a water supply pressure in
excess of 60 psi, you may hear a loud sound during water
filling associated with the flow of water through the inlet
valve. Call a licensed, qualified plumber to determine the best
method to reduce the supply water pressure (50 psi is
recommended).

ICE MAKER CARE
A
B
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before cleaning.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
Cleaning
The ice making system and the air cooled condenser need to be
cleaned regularly for the ice maker to operate at peak efficiency
and to avoid premature failure of system components. See the
“Ice Maker System” and the “Condenser” sections.
Exterior Surfaces
Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and gaskets with warm water
and mild soap or detergent. Wipe and dry. Regular use of a good
household appliance cleaner and wax will help maintain the
finish. Do not use abrasive cleaners on enamel surfaces as they
may scratch the finish.
For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or
soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use
abrasive or harsh cleaners. Do not use chlorine bleach on the
stainless steel surfaces.
Ice Maker System
Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle
will eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system.
Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale
buildup. How often you need to clean the system depends upon
how hard your water is. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal.
(4 to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as often as
every 9 months.
NOTE: Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of approved ice maker
cleaner. To order, see “Accessories.”
1. Press the ON/OFF button.
2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the storage bin.
Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Unscrew the drain cap from the bottom of the water pan
located inside the storage bin as shown. Allow the water to
drain completely.
4. Replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the drain
cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and you will
have either thin ice or no ice.
5. Read and follow all handling information on the cleaner bottle
before completing the steps below. Use one 16 oz (473 mL)
bottle of approved ice maker cleaner.
6. Pour one bottle of solution into the water pan. Fill the bottle
twice with tap water and pour it into the water pan.
7. Press the CLEAN button. See “Using the Controls.” The
Clean button will blink, indicating that the cleaning cycle is in
process. When the “Cleaning Complete” light is illuminated
(approximately 70 minutes), the cleaning cycle is complete.
During the cleaning cycle, the system will both clean and
rinse itself.
8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the drain cap
from the water pan. Look for any cleaning solution left in the
water pan. If cleaning solution drains from the water pan, you
should run the clean cycle again. Be sure to refill the water
pan with cleaner before starting the clean cycle again. Be
sure to replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the
drain cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and
you will have either thin ice or no ice.
NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated cleaning with
a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.
9. Press the ON/OFF button to resume ice production.
