•It must have a minimum flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute at 10 feet of lift.
•It must have a sealed sump which does not allow water leakage in the case of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure.
•It must have a check valve in the discharge line to prevent waste water return to the pump.
•It must have an overflow protection control which will shut off power to the ice maker in the event of a pump failure.
•It must have an operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F (10°C to 40°C).

3.Attach the copper water line to the back of the unit using the supplied clamp and the back panel screw (see above). This will prevent rotation of the line when moving the unit.
4.Plug in the unit and put unit into OFF mode by holding the power key for 10 seconds. Not doing this will cause the unit to fill with water for 3 minutes.
5.Turn on the water supply and ensure the connections are free of leaks.
6.Begin to push the appliance into the desired cabinet opening. The copper tubing should remain in 2 coils behind the unit.
IMPORTANT
Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply line contacting cabinet wall may cause excessive noise during operation or damage to the line.
7.While pushing the unit into the opening, continuously reroute the drain tube (if installed) to avoid kinks. The most common installation pulls the slack into an adjacent cabinet or basement area.
