·
This ice maker should be installed by qualified personnel.
·
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be completely
unobstructed.
·
When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the recommended spacing dimensions
shown on the previous page. Allow 2/5" (10mm) or more clearance at rear, 1/5" (5.1mm) at
the sides and 1" (25.4mm) at the top for proper air circulation. The installation should allow
the ice maker to be pulled forward for servicing if necessary.
·
Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 45°F (7°C) and below 110° F (43°C).
·
The unit should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
·
Installation of the ice maker requires a cold water supply inlet of 1/4 (6.35mm) soft copper
tubing with a shut-off valve.
·
The ice maker requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 15 psig and a
static pressure not to exceed 80 psig. The temperature of the water feeding into the ice maker
should be between 41°F (5°C) and 90°F (32°C) for proper operation.
Normal operating ambient temperature should be between 45°F (7°C) to 110°
F (43°C). Normal operating water temperature should be between 41°F (5°C)
and 90°F (32°C). Operation of the ice maker for extended periods outside of
these normal temperature ranges may affect production capacity.
·
In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter, if it is of the proper type,
can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Some water is very hard; softened water may
result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. De-ionized water is not recommended.
·
The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with
all state and local codes.
·
The unit should be located on a firm and level surface. It is important for the ice maker to be
leveled in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice maker by
rotating the casters or adjustable feet. See the Leveling the Ice Maker section.
·
A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60Hz, 15A), properly grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
·
IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and wall
or cabinet.
