•A water filter is recommended for this unit. A quality filter can remove particles as well as remove taste and odors from water. •Do not use a reverse osmosis water filtration system with the ice machine.

•Softened water is not recommended. This will produce mushy, cloudy ice cubes that will stick together. •De-ionized water is not recommended. This water will not form solid ice cubes.

•A water specialist can recommend proper water treatment.

•After installation of water line, turn on water and check for any leaks. Additional tightening may be needed. Do not use any type of thread sealer.

•Allow extra water line for easy removal of unit and to help prevent the water line from kinking.
