INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS 14-7/8" (37.8) 34-1/8" (86.7) FULL RETRACT HEIGHT 24" (61) 4.5" (11.4) WATER OUTLET OFF ON WATER VALVE WATER DRAIN 21-3/4" (55.2) UL202 Figure 1 DRAIN INSTALLATION PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install or operate the unit. All Ice Makers require a connection to the water supply and improper hook-up can result in substantial property damage! All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor.
User’s Manual Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/or potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage: Gravity Drain • Drain lines must have a 5/8 inch inside diameter. • Drain lines must have a 1 inch drop per 48 inches of run (1/4 inch per foot) and must not create traps. • The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains. • Insulate the bin drain line to prevent condensation.
3. Remove 12 screws and back panel. 4. Check that the clamps and hose connections are tight at the following areas: • Discharge tube (A) • Drain tube (B) • Vent tube (C) B B C A BACK VIEW SIDE VIEW UL184-2 5. Place a suitable container beneath the pump’s discharge tube. (The bucket must be able to hold a minimum of one gallon.) ! WARNING Back panel serves as a guard. DO NOT put your hands inside the ice maker cabinet or attempt to touch any components except the discharge tube during testing.
User’s Manual CONNECTING A DRAIN PUMP If a gravity drain connection is not available, and you have not purchased the CLR2060 with factory installed pump, we strongly recommend the use of the U-Line P60 drain pump. The U-Line P60 drain pump is available through your Dealer, or direct from U-Line with complete installation instructions.
SITE PREPARATION 1. Position the unit on a flat, level surface, capable of supporting the entire weight of the unit. Remember that the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded. It is extremely important that the unit is level. If it is not level, the ice mold will not fill evenly. This can cause a reduction in ice rate, uneven sized cubes or water spilling into the storage area which will cause the ice in the bin to melt prematurely.
User’s Manual NOTE The door of the unit may be mounted on either side of the cabinet (see REVERSING THE DOOR). All U-Line units (except Stainless Steel models) have a zero clearance for the door to open (see Figure 2). See BUILT-IN INSTALLATION for additional clearance requirements. CABINET OR WALL DOOR SWING 0" CLEARANCE NEEDED UL124A Figure 2 NOTE Stainless Steel models require a minimum of 2-1/2" door clearance. Install and connect the water supply line.
CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines: • Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit. • In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the basement through a hole in the floor. • The water pressure should be between 15 and 150 psi. • Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch supply line. • Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be moved for cleaning and servicing.
User’s Manual Locate the compression fitting and ferrule packed in the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4 inch water supply line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line (see Figure 6). WATER LINE C L N O F F I C E 4. UL402 Figure 8 6. UL134 Figure 6 5. For recessed installations, allow extra water supply line length to provide slack for easy removal from the recessed area (see Figure 9).
NOTE After completing the installation, turn on the water and recheck water and drain connection for leaks. Apply additional tightening if needed. Do NOT use thread sealing compound or tape. NOTE Route the water supply line through the clip on the sidewall of the unit in such a way as to prevent the line from coming in contact with any internal components other than the solenoid valve (see Figure 5). Normal operation creates some vibration.
User’s Manual CHECK LEVEL UL314 Figure 10 TURN FOOT TO ADJUST UL205A Figure 11 3. Check the levelness after each adjustment and repeat the previous steps until the unit is level. REVERSING THE DOOR All U-Line units (except Stainless Steel models) may be left or right hand opening. The door opening is easily reversed by moving the hinge hardware to the opposite side (see Figure 12).
1. Remove top hinge screw pin (7/64" Allen wrench) from 3. cabinet (see Figure 13). Remove door by tilting forward and lifting off bottom hinge pin. Remove top hinge (3 screws), reinstall hinge screw pin, and remount on opposite side BOTTOM (see Figure 15). HINGE SCREW PIN UL313 Figure 15 UL310 4. Figure 13 2. Remove plastic screw plugs (3 each, top and bottom) from new hinge location. Do not discard (see Figure 14).

Tilt top of door into position in top hinge and install top hinge screw pin. 9.
CUSTOM DOOR PANELS Two types of custom door panels can be installed on your U-Line unit to harmonize with or accent the surrounding decor. FULL OVERLAY DOOR PANEL A full overlay door panel completely covers the door frame and handle to give a built-in appearance. See your U-Line dealer for the optional Full Overlay Door Panel Kit which contains the Panel Preparation Document for building and installing a full overlay panel. See Table 1 and Figure 19 for full overlay door panel dimensions. Table 1.
User’s Manual Install the insert as follows: ! WARNING Insert edges may be SHARP! Use care when installing. 1. Remove top hinge screw pin (7/64" Allen wrench, see Figure 20). Remove door by tilting forward and lifting off bottom hinge pin. 2. Remove two outside screws holding door handle. Slightly separate door handle from door (see Figure 21). 3. Pull door gasket out of groove (top edge of door only). Start in the middle and pull outward, moving toward the edge (see Figure 22).
BUILT-IN INSTALLATION Your U-Line product has been designed for either free-standing or builtin installation. When built-in, your U-Line product does not require additional air space for top, sides or rear. However, the front grille must NOT be obstructed. ! CAUTION Do not install unit behind closed doors.

User’s Manual INITIAL START-UP C L N O F F I C E C L N O F F I C E Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is ready for initial start-up and operation. Your unit is shipped in the OFF position, however, you may turn it ON/OFF using the cycle selector switch located in the grille (see Figure 24). CYCLE SELECTOR SWITCH UL316B Figure 24 1. Plug the appliance cord into a 115V polarized and grounded electrical outlet. 2. Open the water supply valve in the main water source. 3.
NORMAL OPERATION The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from most water sources on a consistent basis. Water is constantly circulated over the evaporator assembly. As the water freezes, gravity causes any sediment to drop into the water trough and not become imbedded in the ice. This gives a clearer ice cube with a low mineral content. When the ice reaches the desired thickness, it falls off the evaporator and into the storage bin. The cycle is then repeated.
User’s Manual MAINTENANCE Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, the unit is used outdoors, or other special considerations. EXTERIOR CLEANING — AS REQUIRED The door, grille and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners.
! WARNING • DO NOT use solvent cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleansers may transmit taste to the ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior. • DO NOT use any cleaner inside the ice maker compartment other than U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner. Other cleaners may affect ice quality or damage the unit not covered under warranty. See AUTOMATIC CLEAN CYCLE for more information.
User’s Manual ! WARNING DO NOT touch the condenser fins. The condenser fins are SHARP and can be easily damaged. ! CAUTION DO NOT use any type of cleaner on the condenser unit. 3. Clean the condenser coil using a brush or vacuum cleaner. Do not touch. 4. Position the grille to align the screw holes with the cabinet. 5. Insert the grille screws and tighten being careful not to overtighten.
Ice machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale and other mineral deposits. Refer to the following steps for mineral deposit removal. ! CAUTION Never use anything to force ice from the evaporator. Damage may result. 1. Set the cycle selector switch to OFF and allow the ice to melt off of the evaporator. 2. Remove all ice from the storage bin. 3. Remove inside front cover (see Figure 26). 4.
User’s Manual 9. When the self-cleaning process stops (approximately 45 minutes) it may be desirable to clean the storage bin at this time (see INTERIOR CLEANING). 10. Move the cycle selector switch to the ICE position to resume ice production. INLET SCREEN CLEANING — EVERY YEAR The solenoid valve inlet screen must be cleaned at least once each year as follows: Shut off the water at the water supply valve. 2. Remove front access panel to expose water solenoid valve. 3.
STORAGE, VACATION AND MOVING If the unit is to be stored, moved or not used for extended periods, it will be necessary to drain the system of water. ! WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard. Disconnect power before servicing. Before operating replace all panels. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock. 1. Disconnect power from the unit. 2. Remove ice from the storage bin. Shut off water supply at the main water source. 4. Remove grille (2 screws). 5.
