Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is equipped with a power
supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged and 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.
Leveling the Ice Maker
Once the ice cube machine is set in its enclosure, if the base is not level, you can adjust
the feet by rotating the under block (see below) until the machine is level.
It is important for the ice maker to be leveled, or water may not flow properly through
the evaporator (ice mold). Ice production will be lower than normal, and operation will
be noisy.
Adjust the height of the under block of the adjustable foot, rotating it to the right
(counter- clockwise) to lower that side of the ice maker. Turning the under block to the
left (clockwise) raises that side of the ice maker.
Water Supply
The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure
should be a minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall
outlet directly behind the ice maker will make installation easier.)
IMPORTANT:
1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
Professional installation is recommended.
2. Make certain that the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during
installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required:
__ open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver
Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply.
2. Find a __ to __ vertical water pipe near the installation location. The distance should
be less than 9 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about 9 feet
long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a
plain piece of copper tubing, attach a __O.D. compression union to the tubing and
