INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT:

• This ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber only.

• The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with state

and local codes.

• A standard electrical supply properly grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code and

local codes and ordinances is required.

• The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes for 110V and 10 amperes for 220V.

• It is recommended that a separate circuit, servicing only for your ice maker, be provided. Use

receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.

• This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements (for example, wind, rain, water

spray or drips). Do NOT use the ice maker in outdoor settings.

• The ambient operational temperature should be between 50°F (10°C) and 100°F (38°C). The

input water temperature should be between 41°F (5°C) and 90°F (32°C). Operation outside these

temperatures may result in lowered production or other adverse effects.

• Too much humidity in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more

frequent de-frosting of the ice maker.

• The ice maker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high-heat resources.

• The unit should be located on a hard, level surface that can support the unit when it is full. It is

important for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. Otherwise water may not ow

properly through the evaporator (ice mold). The ice production will be less than normal. You may

need to make several adjustments to level it. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice maker

by turning the feet. See “Leveling the Ice Maker” on page 15.

• To ensure proper service access and ventilation, allow at least 2” (50 mm) clearance at rear, and

1/4” (6 mm) at top and sides. The installation should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for

servicing if necessary.

• When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the recommended spacing dimensions

shown. Place electrical and water supplies and drain xtures in the recommended locations.

• The ice maker requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 15 psi (0.1 MPa)

and a static pressure not to exceed 80 psi (0.5 MPa).
