he location selected for the ice machine must
meet the following criteria. If any of these
criteria are not met, select another location.
The ice machine may be built into a
cabinet, however the location must allow
removal of the ice machine for cleaning and
servicing. Service diagnostics are
performed from the top of the ice machine.
The location must be free of airborne and
other contaminants.
Do not place the unit within 18" (457) of a
trash compactor or trash/recycling
container.
The air temperature must be at least 50°F
(10°C), but must not exceed 100°F (38°C) for
models UC-15I and UC-15IP and 110°F
(43°C) for models UC-15IO and UC-15IPO.
The location must not be near heat-generat-
ing equipment.
The location must not obstruct air flow
through the kickplate (airflow is in and out
the front of the ice machine).
The location must allow enough clearance
for water, drain and electrical connections
at the rear of the ice machine.
Models UC-15IO and UC-15IPO may be
installed outside.

efore moving the ice machine in place, be
sure the finished opening dimensions, elec-
trical and plumbing locations are accurate.

efer to pages 7–11.
Be sure your plumber, electrician and
cabinet installer have this information before
finishing work is completed.
Models UC-15I and UC-15IO are gravity drain
models that require a drain tube that is
pitched down from the outlet at the back of
the unit to the sanitary sewer connection.
Models UC-15IP and UC-15IPO have a built
in drain pump that will pump water up to a
drain point, such as a nearby sink. Refer to
specifications on pages 8–9.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the ice machine is
installed in a corner, the door swing may be
limited due to handle contact with the wall
or cabinet face.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The floor under the
ice machine must be at the same level as the
surrounding finished floor.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When you move the
unit using a hand truck or dolly, position the
dolly on the side of the unit and secure the
door so it does not open while transporting
the unit.
The ice machine must be protected if it
will be subjected to ambient tempera-
tures below 32°F (0°C). Component failure
caused by exposure to freezing tempera-
tures is not covered by the warranty. See
page 27.
Any finished flooring should be protected
with appropriate material to avoid any
damage from moving the unit.
