Before you move the ice maker into its ﬁnal

location, it is important to make sure you have

the proper electrical connection:

• A115Volt,60Hz,AConly15-or20-ampelectri-

calsupply,properlygroundedinaccordance

with the National Electrical Code and local

codes and ordinances, is required.

• It is recommended that a separate circuit,

servingonlytheicemaker,beprovided.Use

a receptacle which cannot be turned off by

a switch or pull chain.

INSTALLATION INFORMATION

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death, ﬁre, or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to

a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) pro-

tected outlet, nuisance tripping of the power

supply may occur, resulting in the loss of cool-

ing. Ice quality may be affected. If nuisance

tripping has occurred, and if the condition of

the ice appears poor, dispose of it.

Recommended Grounding Method

For personal safety, this appliance must be

grounded. This appliance is equipped with a

powersupplycordhavinga3-pronggrounding

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 per-

sonal responsibility of the customer to have

a properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle

installed by a qualiﬁed electrician.

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTIONS

8. Use 1/4" (6.35 mm) O.D. copper tubing

for the cold water supply and:

a)Measure from the connection at the

back of the ice maker to the cold water

pipe.

b)Add an extra 36" (91.4 cm) to ensure

that you have the proper length. Make

sure both ends of the copper tubing are

cut square.

c)Slip a compression sleeve and com-

pressionnutovertheendsofthecopper

tubing.

d)Insert the end of tubing into the water

shutoff outlet as far as it will go, and

screw the compression nut onto the

outlet. Tighten the compression nut

with an adjustable wrench, but do not

overtighten it.

9. Placethefreeendofthecoppertubinginto

a container or sink, and turn on the main

water supply. Flush the tubing until water

is clear, and then turn off the shutoff valve

onthewaterpipe.NOTE:Alwaysdrainthe

waterlinebeforemakingtheﬁnalconnec-

tion to the inlet of the water valve to avoid

a possible water valve malfunction.

10. Bend the copper tubing to meet the water

line inlet, located on the back of the ice

maker cabinet, as shown below.

CONNECTING THE WATER LINE

1. Turn off the main water supply.

2. Turn on the nearest faucet and allow it to

run long enough to clear line of water.

3. Find a 1/2"(12.70 mm) to 1-1/4" (3.18

cm) vertical cold water pipe near the ice

maker.

NOTE: A horizontal pipe will work, but drill on

the top side of the pipe, not the bottom. This

will keep water away from the drill motor, and

also keeps normal sediment from collecting in

the valve.

4. Using a grounded drill, a 1/4" (6.35 mm)

hole in the cold water pipe you have se-

lected.

5. Fasten a shutoff valve to the cold water

pipewithapipeclamp.Makesurethatthe

outlet end is ﬁrmly in the 1/4" (6.35 mm)

drilled hole, and that the washer is under

the pipe clamp.

IMPORTANT: Do not use a piercing-type, or

a 3/16" (4.76 mm) saddle-type valve. These

can reduce water ﬂow and easily become

clogged.

6. Tighten the packing nut.

7. Tighten the pipe clamp screws carefully

and evenly so that the washer makes a

watertight seal. Do not overtighten the

pipe clamp. If the water line is soft copper

tubing, you could crush it.
