ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize
the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord
supplied.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced
with a 3-prong receptacle in accordance with applicable electrical codes.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 volts a.c.~/60hz electrical ground outlet with
three-prong receptacle.
The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling, in order to
prevent accidental injury.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading of house wiring circuits, which could result in a fire hazard. Never unplug the
appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
EXTENSION CORD
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do
not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord
having a grounding type plug and outlet, and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at
least 10 amperes.
¾ CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Review the state and local plumbing codes before you install the unit. All the necessary hardware is
not provided for installation so you must hire a professional licensed plumber to complete the
installation.
Connect tubing (supplied with unit) to the nearest cold water source. Connect sufficient tubing to the
unit to allow the appliance to be moved freely for cleaning and service. Also make sure that the
tubing is not pinched or damaged during transportation.
Position unit to allow free airflow through the front grille (see sketch 1). Wipe off inside of unit and
ice bucket with a damp cloth.
