Electrical Requirements
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.
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection:
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 ampere electrical supply, properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.

Leveling
It is important for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. Depending upon where you install the ice maker, you may need to make several adjustments to level it.
Tools required
■Carpenter’s level
To adjust the leveling legs
Your ice maker has four adjustable leveling legs to help you steady the product and make sure it is level.
NOTE: It is easier to adjust the leveling legs if you have another person to assist you.
1.Place a carpenter’s level on top of the product to see whether the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side.
2.Push up on the top front of the ice maker, and then locate the leveling legs that are on the bottom of the product.
3.Change the height of the legs as follows:
■Turn the leveling legs to the right to lower that side of the ice maker.
■Turn the leveling legs to the left to raise that side of the ice maker.
NOTE: The ice maker should not wobble. Use shims to add stability when needed.
4.Use a carpenter's level to make sure the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side. If the ice maker is not level, repeat Steps 2 and 3. If the ice maker is level, go to the “Water Supply Connection” section.
