injury when using your ice maker, follow these
basic precautions:

in the garage a few days.”

children may not easily climb inside.

Installation instructions
Before using your ice maker
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
1 ice bucket
1 plastic scoop
25 ft. Hose
1 Safety Latch Assembly
1 instruction manual
Before connecting the ice maker to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during
transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installation of your ice maker
This appliance is designed to be recessed or built-in (fully recessed).
Place your ice maker on a floor that is strong enough to support the ice maker when it is fully
loaded. Remember that the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded. To level your ice
maker, adjust the leg at the front of the 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
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the ice maker not to perform
properly.
Avoid locating the ice maker in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form
quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent defrosting of the ice maker.
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. Any questions
concerning power and or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an
authorized Avanti Products service center.
