· In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter, if it is of the
proper type, can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Some water is very hard,
and softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Deionized
water is not recommended.
· The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in
accordance with all state and local codes.
· The unit should be located on a firm and level surface. It is important for the ice maker
to be leveled in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice
maker by revolving the caster. See the Leveling the Ice Maker section.
·
A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60Hz, 15A), properly grounded in
accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is
required.
IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the icemaker and wall
or cabinet.
