INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION OF YOUR ICE MAKER

∙Locate the ice maker away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consump- tion. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the ice maker not to perform properly.

∙Plug the ice maker into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

∙IMPORTANT: Do not install the Ice maker near an oven, radiator, or other heat source.

SPACE REQUIREMENTS

∙During transportation, the incline angle of the cabinet should not be over 45°

∙Do not turn the Ice Maker upside down. Problems could occur in the compressor and sealed system.

∙The Ice maker should be placed horizontally on a properly leveled surface.

∙To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, allow 6” of space at the back and on each side.

∙Before using the Ice maker for the first time, please wait 4 hours after positioning it.

∙Clean the ice shovel, ice basket, water reservoir, and ice scoop frequently.

9.Change water in the water reservoir every 24 hours to ensure a reasonable hygiene level. If unit is not in use, drain all water left in the tank.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your ice maker if you minimize the number of times the ice maker cover is opened. If the power is going to be OFF for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to disconnect your appliance.
