Water Supply

The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure should be a minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice machine will make installation easier.)

IMPORTANT:

1.All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional installation is recommended.

2.Make certain the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.

3.Check for leaks after connection.

Tools required:

½-in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver Connecting the water line:

1.Turn off main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.

2.Find a ½-in. to ¾-in. vertical cold water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be less than 9 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about 9 feet long.

3.A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of copper tubing, attach a ¼” O.D. compression union to the tubing and remove the nut.

4.Connect the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the water inlet. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.

5.Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten every connection (including connection at the water inlet).

IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay attention to the indications of “Water inlet” and “Drain outlet” on the machine.

Drain

Connecting the drain line or not is optional. When you choose to connect the drain line, you should follow the procedure in “Connecting the drain line “ below. If not, just follow the steps in “If you don’t connect the drain hose”. However, it is recommended to use the drain when the ice maker is at high ambient temperature or low ice consumption to avoid accumulating melt water in the bin.

Connecting the drain line:

NOTE: If there is a drain line near the ice maker, the best choice to drain water to

the drain line through the drain water hose provided with ice maker.

1.Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 9 feet since the length of the long drain water hose provided with the ice maker is about 9 feet.
