INSTALLING YOUR
ICE MAKER
Unpacking the Ice Maker
Removing packaging materials
IMPORTANT: Do not remove any permanent instruction
labels inside your ice maker or the Tech Sheet that is
fastened behind the lower access panel.
■ Remove tape and any labels from your ice maker
before using (except the model and serial number
label).
■ To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area
briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also
be easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid
dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe
with warm water and dry.
■ Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape
or glue. These products can damage the surface of
your ice maker.
Cleaning before use
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the
inside of your ice maker before using it. See the cleaning
instructions in the “Caring for Your Ice Maker” section.
Space Requirements
■ To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the
front side must be completely unobstructed. The unit
may be closed-in on the top and three sides, but the
installation should allow the ice maker to be pulled
forward for servicing if necessary.
■ Installation of the ice maker requires a cold water
supply inlet of ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing with
a shut-off valve and either a gravity-drain system or
condensate pump to carry the water to an existing
drain.
■ Choose a well ventilated area with temperatures above
55°F (13°C) and below 100°F (38°C). Best results are
obtained between 70°F (21°C) and 90°F (32°C). This
unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the
elements, such as wind, rain, water spray, or drip.
■ When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow
the recommended opening dimensions shown. Place
electrical and plumbing fixtures in the recommended
location as shown.
NOTE: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord
between the ice maker and cabinet.

Plumbing Fixtures.
2. Floor Level
■ You should choose a location where the floor is even. It
is important for the ice maker to be level in order to
work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of
the ice maker by changing the position of the rear
wheels. See the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
ice maker.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
