Drain Connection

Gravity Drain System

Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in accordance with all state and local codes and ordinances. If the ice maker is provided with a gravity drain system, follow these guidelines when installing drain lines. This will help keep water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage.

■Drain lines must have a minimum of ⁵⁄₈" (15.88 mm) inside diameter.

■Drain lines must have a 1" drop per 48" (2.54 cm drop per 122 cm) of run or ¹⁄₄" drop per 12" (6.35 mm per 30.48 cm) of run and must not have low points where water can settle.

■The floor drains must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains.

■The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 1¹⁄₂" (3.81 cm) to 2" (5.08 cm) PVC drain reducer installed directly below the outlet of the drain tube as shown. You must maintain a

1" (2.54 cm) air gap between the drain hose and the standpipe.

■It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly up to the drain inlet.

Drain Pump System (on some models)

Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and any local codes and ordinances.

NOTE: If the drain hose becomes twisted and water cannot drain, your ice maker will not work.

Connecting the Drain

After ensuring that the drain system is adequate, follow these steps to properly place the ice maker:

WARNING

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.

1.Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install ice maker. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

2.Style 1 - For gravity drain system, push the ice maker into position so that the ice maker drain tube is positioned over the PVC drain reducer. See “Gravity Drain System.”

Style 2 - For drain pump system connect the drain pump outlet hose to the drain. See “Drain Pump System.”

3.Recheck the ice maker to be sure that it is level. See “Leveling.”

4.If it is required by your local sanitation code, seal the cabinet to the floor with an approved caulking compound after all water and electrical connections have been made.

Install Custom Overlay Panel

IMPORTANT: Create custom overlay panel according to the specifications in the “Custom Overlay Panel” section.

1.Install the ice maker.

2.Level the ice maker. See “Leveling.”

3.Place the ice maker under the cabinet so that the front edge of the custom panel will align with the front edge of the surrounding cabinets.

4.Hold the custom panel up to the ice maker and check that the opening and alignment are correct. Mark location of the panel as necessary.

5.Remove the tape from the face of the door.

6.Remove the paper backing from the adhesive pads that are located on the door front.

7.Place the panel on the door, align with markings and apply pressure in the area of the adhesive pads.
