UTILITIES

OBSERVE LOCAL CODES

Each installation is unique but will require:

A cold water inlet of 1/4″ O.D. soft copper tubing and a shutoff valve.

Either a gravity drain system or a sump pump to lift the water to an existing drain.

An electrical branch circuit of 115 volt, 60 Hz.

1 phase, with a 15 amp delayed action fuse or circuit breaker.

FOR THE PLUMBER

Connect to water. (Observe local codes.)

Use 1/4″ O.D. soft copper tubing for the cold water supply.

Provide a convenient manual shutoff valve in the water line.

Position the tubing so it can enter the access hole located in the right-hand rear of the icemaker cabinet. The tubing should extend beyond the cabinet front so when the icemaker is pushed back in position it will reach the water inlet location in the front. See Figure 1.

NOTE: Always purge the water line before making the final connection to the inlet of the water valve to prevent possible water valve malfunction.

With the icemaker in its permanent location, bend the tubing to meet the connection at the water valve. The garden hose threaded compression fitting is found in the parts bag. This joint provides a convenient disconnect for service. Be sure the tubing is clear of compressor, to prevent rattle.

LEVELING

After placing the icemaker into position, check to make certain the icemaker is level side to side and front to back.

Accurate leveling is essential for proper operation.

The icemaker should be shimmed so that it is solid as well as level. The shims should be of hard permanent type material such as masonite.

Compliance with National Sanitation Foundation standards requires that this type of product be sealed to the floor at the bottom rail in order to prevent contamination from spills or the entrance of vermin. Therefore, we recommend that when installing the icemaker you seal it to the floor in accordance with those standards. A silicone-type sealer is recommended.

ALTERNATE METHOD

If a drain connection directly below the drain tube outlet is not available, install a UL-listed drain pump in the rear compartment of the icemaker.

Drain pump specifications:

UL-listed and have a UL-listed, 120VAC, 3-wire grounded service cord

Overall outside dimensions (maximum):

wide x 6″ deep x 91/2″ high15

Pump flow rate (minimum): 24.0 gph (0.4 gpm) @ 12 feet lift

Operating temperature range 55°F. to 110°F. (13°C. to 43°C.)
