1. Attach the 5/8" ID drain connection on the back of the unit to a
5/8" OD rigid tube, using a worm clamp.
2. Attach the other end of the rigid tube to your 5/8" ID drain line
with a worm clamp.
3. Insulate the drain line, if necessary, to prevent condensation.
LOCALLY-INSTALLED DRAIN PUMP
If a gravity drain connection is not possible, and you have not
purchased the CLR2160 with factory-installed pump, we strongly
recommend the use of the U-Line P60 drain pump. The U-Line P60
drain pump is available through your dealer, or direct from U-Line
with complete installation instructions. If a pump other than the U-
Line P60 drain pump is to be used, it must meet the following
specifications:
• It must be UL listed and have a UL listed, 120 VAC,
3-wire grounded power cord.
• It must have overall maximum outside dimensions of
8-3/4" wide x 5-3/4" deep x 7-3/4" high.
• It must have a minimum flow rate of 15 gallons per hour at 10 feet
of lift.
• It must have a sealed sump which does not allow water leakage in
the case of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure.
• It must have a check valve in the discharge line to prevent waste
water return to the pump.
• It must have an overflow protection control which will shut off
power to the ice maker in the event of a pump failure.
• It must have an operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F
(10°C to 40°C).

NOTE: These instructions are based on the U-Line recommendations and
common industry practice. You must consult your local plumbing codes to
ensure compliance. U-Line requires the use of copper cold water supply
connection tubing. Plastic tubing should not be used.
1. Locate the desired cold water supply location. Attach a 1/4"
copper line to this location and route the tubing to the appliance.
Leave approximately 8' of water line to be coiled behind the
appliance as shown (Figure 69). This water line should be
looped into 2 coils. This will allow the line to flex when moving
the appliance in and out of the opening.
Figure 69
2. Locate the U-Line supplied garden hose fitting. Ensure the end of
the copper tubing has been cut straight and is free of burrs. Slide
the compression nut and ferrule onto the copper tubing as shown
(Figure 70)
. Push the assembly completely into the garden hose
fitting and tighten using the two wrenches. Wait to connect this
assembly to the appliance until the drain connection is ready.
