Water Supply; Drain - Maxx Ice MIM50 Manual De Instrucciones

Water Supply

The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure
should be a minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall
directly behind the ice machine will make installation easier.)
NOTE:
1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
Professional installation is recommended.
2. Make certain the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required:
½-in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver
Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear line of
water.
2. Find a ½-in. to ¾-in. vertical cold water pipe near the installation location. The
distance should be less than 9 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker
is about 9 feet long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a
plain piece of copper tubing, attach a ¼" O.D. compression union to the tubing and
4. Connect the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the
water inlet. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.
5. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten
every connection (including connection at the water inlet).
NOTE:When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay attention to the indications
of "Water inlet" and "Drain outlet" on the machine.

Drain

You must connect the drain line before using the ice maker. (The Dual Drainage feature of
earlier models has been modified to simplify the drainage procedure.) Follow the steps
outlined below.
Connecting the drain line:
NOTE:If there is a drain line near the ice maker, the best choice to drain water to the drain line,
is through the drain water hose provided with ice maker.
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 5 feet since
the length of the long drain water hose provided with the ice maker is about 5 feet.
2. Find the drain outlet on the back of ice maker, take off the rear drainage plug. Connect
the nut of the drain outlet to the water draining hose, insert the other end of the hose
