CAUTION
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the
appliance. Keep this area open and clear of any
obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be
installed around the appliance as long as the front grille
remains unobstructed. Overlay door models with articulated
hinges are intended for built-in applications only.
!
CAUTION
Outdoor Installation
Do not install in a location where the ice machine will
be exposed to direct sun exposure as this may result in
unsatisfactory performance.

CAUTION
The warranty is voided if product is used in an ambient
temperature of 40°F (5°C) or below.
INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of
your appliance. We recommend a location where the ice
machine will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat
sources. To ensure your product performs to specications,
the recommended installation location temperature range
is from 55 to 90°F (13 to 32°C) for built in ice machines and
55 to 100°F (13 to 38°C) for freestanding ice machines.
Ice machines will not perform correctly in ambient
temperatures less than 55°F (13°C).
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within
the front grille allow air to ow through the condenser
heat exchanger. Restrictions to this air ow will result in
increased energy usage, loss of cooling capacity and low
ice production. For this reason it is important this area not
be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean. DCS
does not recommend the use of a custom made grille as
air flow may be restricted. (See Figure 1).
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the
appliance should be set so the unit is rmly positioned on
the floor and level from side to side and front to back. The
overall height of your DCS appliance may be adjusted
higher (by turning the leveling leg out) and lower (by turning
the leveling leg in). Cabinet height adjustment dimensions
are shown in Table "A".
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the oor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the oor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs.
Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the
appliance forward using caution. On a level surface check
the appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened to raise and
lower the grille to the desired height. When adjustment is
complete tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 4).

WARNING
WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and su󰀨ocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or
freezer:
• Take o󰀨 the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other
than an upright position for any period of time, allow the
appliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours
before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the
compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may
cause damage to internal parts.
