Before you start...

Electrical Shock Hazard Contact a qualified electrical installer.

Assure that the electrical connection is adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code ANSVNFPA 70 - latest edition* and all local codes and ordinances.

Check that electrical wiring and components Do Not contact any plumbing material or drain hose.

Check that electrical wiring, water supply line and drain line Do Not contact any exposed terminals of the ice maker wiring.

Check that electrical wiring is not routed through drain area.

Check that plumbing and electrical wiring Do Not cross in front of the ice maker motor.

Install the ice maker in a cabinet that completely encloses the sides, top and rear of the ice maker.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury.

It is the customer’s responsibility to:

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

l Comply with the installation specifications and dimensions provided

l Properly install the ice maker.

l Make sure you have everything necessary for correct installation.

l Contact a qualified installer to assure that the plumbing and electrical installa- tions are adequate and meet all nation- al and local codes and ordinances.

l Provide a properly grounded outlet (See “Electrical requirements.“)

l Provide proper water supply line and floor drain or drain pump, as specified. (See “Water requirements” and “Drain requirements.“)

Plumbing and electrical wiring should not cross in front of the motor. Electrical wiring should not be routed through the drain area.

Read and follow the “Electrical requirements, fl “Water requirements, II and “Drainrequirements, I before installing the ice maker.

The ice maker may be enclosed around the sides, top and rear. (See “Built-in opening dimensions.“) Do Not block or close in the front of the ice maker. The ice maker cannot work properly if the airflow to the front of the ice maker is blocked.

Drain system requires either a gravity floor-drain system or a drain pump (see “Drainrequirements”) to lift the water to an existing drain. A l-l /4” minimum diameter standpipe or 5/8” I.D. minimum drain tube to an open drain is required.

Commercial installation sanitation codes: National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) installation procedures require sealing the ice maker to the floor with approved caulking compound. We recommend using a silicone-type sealer.

Shipboard installations require a water deflector (available from your local dealer or parts distributor). Install deflector according to the instructions provided with the deflector kit. The deflector keeps the water that flows over the evaporator from spilling into the storage bin area.

Custom wood panels: The bin door and lower panel can be customized to match your wood cabinets. See “Changing the bin door and lower panel”, Panel C.

When moving ice maker, slide ice maker onto cardboard or hardboard to prevent damaging floor covering.

Check the location where the ice maker will be installed. The location must provide:

l Easy access to water, electricity and drain lines.

l Protection from wind, weather, dripping or spraying water and other harmful elements. Do Not store or operate the ice maker below 55°F or above 100°F. For best results, operate the ice maker at temperatures between 70°F to 90°F.

l Protection so the water inlet and drain lines cannot freeze.

l Good ventilation and unobstructed air flow to the front of the ice maker. Do Not close in the front of the ice maker. The ice maker cannot work properly if the airflow to the front of the ice maker is blocked.

l Room to fully open the ice maker door.

l Room to move the cabinet forward for servicing, if necessary.
