Failure to do so can result in back or other injury. Removing Packaging Materials Remove tape and glue from your ice maker before using. • To remove any remaining tape or glue from the exterior of the ice maker, 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. Do not use chlorine bleach on the stainless steel surfaces of the ice maker. These products can damage the surface of your ice maker. 34" (86.4 cm) Min. 341/2" (87.6 cm) Max. 281/2" (72.4 cm) 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 "Ice Maker Care" section. (38.1 cm) 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 Y4" (6.35 mm) OD soft copper tubing with a shutoff 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 110°F (43°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. A. Recommended location for electrical and plumbing fixtures B. 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 height of the leveling legs. See "Leveling." If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa): • Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary. • Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after heavy usage. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber. Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Tools needed: Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions fire, or electrical shock. can result in death, Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection: A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply, properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protected outlet, nuisance tripping of the power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it. Recommended grounding It is important for the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. Depending upon where you install the ice maker, you may need to make several adjustments to level it. You may also use the leveling legs to lower the height of the ice maker for undercounter installations. Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. • 9" level • NOTE: It is easier to adjust the leveling legs if you have another person to assist you. 1. Move the ice maker to its final location. NOTE: If this is a built-in installation, move the ice maker as close as possible to the final location. 2. Place a carpenter's level on top of the product to see if the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side. 3. Push up on the top front of the ice maker, and then locate the leveling screws that are on the bottom front of the ice maker. 4. Using an adjustable wrench, change the height of the legs as follows: method For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. A cold water supply with water pressure of between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the ice maker. If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber. Reverse Osmosis Water Supply IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the ice maker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa). If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa). The reverse osmosis system must provide 1 gal. (3.79L) of water per hour to the ice maker for proper ice maker operation. Adjustable wrench • Turn the leveling leg to the right to lower that side of the ice maker. • Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that side of the ice maker. NOTE: The ice maker should not wobble. Use shims to add stability when needed. 5. Push up on the top rear of the ice maker and locate the leveling legs that are on the bottom rear of the ice maker. 6. Follow the instructions legs. 7. Use a carpenter's level to recheck the ice maker to see that it is even from front to back and side to side. If the ice maker is not level, repeat steps 2 to 5. If the ice maker is level, go to the "Connect Water Supply" section. in Step 4 to change the height of the Read all directions IMPORTANT: thoroughly before you begin. • Plumbing shall be installed in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and any local codes and ordinances. • Use copper tubing and check for leaks. • Install copper tubing only in areas where temperatures remain above freezing. will Tools needed: Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here. • Flat-blade screwdriver • 7A6"and 1/2"open-end • 1/4"nut driver • %" drill bit • Hand drill or electric drill properly grounded wrenches or two adjustable wrenches NOTE: Your ice maker dealer has a kit available with a 1/4" (6.35 mm) saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type or s/16" (4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

NOTE: Always drain the water line before making the final connection to the inlet of the water valve to avoid possible water valve malfunction. 7. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water line inlet which is located on the back of the ice maker cabinet as shown. Leave a coil of copper tubing to allow the ice maker to be pulled out of the cabinet or away from the wall for service. REAR VIEW the water line 1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water. 2. Find a 1/2"(12.70 mm) to 11/4'' (3.18 cm) vertical cold water pipe near the ice maker. NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but the following procedure must be followed: Drill on the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from the drill. This also keeps normal sediment from collecting in the valve. 3. Using a grounded drill, drill a 1/4"(6.35 mm) hole in the cold water pipe you have selected. 4. Fasten shutoff valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be sure outlet end is solidly in the 1/4"(6.35 mm) drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. Do not overtighten the pipe clamp or you may crush cold water pipe if it is soft copper tubing. Do not use a piercing-type or 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle-type valve which reduces water flow and clogs more easily. 5. A. Cold waterpipe B. Pipe clamp C. Copper tubing A.

Plug ice maker into a grounded 3 prong outlet. *I,,,_4}1_ Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces such as floors, walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them. compressor may make a pulsating or high by the ICE MAKERUSE }[email protected]@__9ou[ Ic® Mc I _1;}[ When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing process takes about 5 minutes. Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice storage bin will monitor the ice levels. IMPORTANT: • If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to set the ice maker control to OFF. • The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated. [l(s The Ice Making Process f. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected. This produces a sheet of ice with a low mineral content. 2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice sheet is released and slides onto a cutter grid. The grid divides the sheet into individual cubes. 3.

Off Light The off light blinks when service is needed. If the off light starts to blink, turn the ice maker off and back on. If the off light continues to blink, call for service. Clean Light The Clean light will help you know when it is time to clean your ice maker. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells you it is almost time to clean your ice maker. It is recommended that you clean the ice maker when the status light changes to red OR ice production decreases significantly. To clean your ice maker, see "Ice Maker System." ICE MAKERCARE The ice making system and the air cooled condenser need to be cleaned regularly for the ice maker to operate at peak efficiency and to avoid premature failure of system components. See the "Ice Maker System" and the "Condenser" sections. Exterior Surfaces Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and gaskets with warm water and mild soap or detergent. Wipe and dry. Regular use of a good household appliance cleaner and wax will help protect the finish. Do not use abrasive cleaners on enamel surfaces as they may scratch the finish. For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Do not use chlorine bleach on stainless steel surfaces. 10 Ice Maker System Minerals that are removed from water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard scaly deposit in the water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often you need to clean the system depends upon how hard your water is. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal. (4 to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as often as every 6 months. NOTE: Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of approved ice maker cleaner. To order, call 1-800-442-9991 and ask for Part Number 4396808. In Canada, call 1-800-807-6777. 1. Turn off the ice maker. 2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the storage bin.
