INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Removing Packaging Materials
Remove tape and glue from your ice maker before using.
• 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
_ 77
the Ice Maker Care section.
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 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 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.

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."
Recommended grounding 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. Ifa 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 - 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 - 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 - 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.
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40 to 60 psi (276 - 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.
Do not use an extension cord,
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
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-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.
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.
Tools needed:
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.
• Carpenter's level
• Adjustable wrench
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:
• 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.

Read all directions thoroughly before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
• 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 will
remain above freezing.
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
• 7/_6"and W' open-end wrenches or two adjustable wrenches
• W' nut driver
• W' drill bit
• Hand drill or electric drill properly grounded
NOTE: Your ice maker dealer has a kit available with a W'
(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 3A6"
(4.76 ram) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Connecting the water line
1=
2.
Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
Find a W' (12.70 mm) to 1V4" (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=
4.
Using a grounded drill, drill a W' (6.35 mm) hole in the cold
water pipe you have selected.
Fasten shutoff valve to cold water pipe with pipe clamp. Be
sure outlet end is solidly in the V4"(6.35 mm) drilled hole in the
water pipe and that washer is under the pipe clamp, Tighten
packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws slowly 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 3A6"(4.76 mm)
saddle-type valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Now you are ready to connect the copper tubing. Use W'
(6,35 mm) OD soft copper tubing for the cold water supply.
• Ensure that you have the proper length needed for the
job. Be sure both ends of the copper tubing are cut
square.
• Slip compression sleeve and compression nut on copper
tubing as shown. Insert end of tubing into outlet end
squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto
outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.

Gravity Drain System
Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in accordance with all
state and local codes and ordinances. Ifthe ice maker is
provided with a gravity drain system, follow these guidelines
when installing drain lines. This will prevent water from flowing
back into the ice maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto
the floor causing water damage.
• Drain lines must have a minimum of %" (15.88 mm) inside
diameter.
Drain lines must have a 1" drop per 48" (2.54 cm drop per
122 cm) of run or 1/4"drop per 12" (6.35 mm per 30.48 cm) of
run and must not have low points where water can settle.
The floor drains must be large enough to accommodate
drainage from all drains.
The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 11/2"(3.81 cm) to
2" (5.08 cm) PVC drain reducer installed directly below the
outlet of the drain tube as shown. You must maintain a
1" (2.54 cm) air gap between the drain hose and the
standpipe.
It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly up to
the drain inlet.

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.
• You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to
fill the water reservoir for each cycle.
• Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or
the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also
make noises.
• The high-efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high
pitched sound.
• Water running over the evaporator plate may make a
splashing sound.
• Water running from the evaporator plate to the water reservoir
may make a splashing sound.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.
• You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
• During the harvest cycle, you may hear a "thud" when the ice
sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.
• When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water
running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a
rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
ICE MAKER USE
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:
• Ifthe water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to
set the ice maker control to OFE
• 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.
The Ice Making Process
2.
Water is constantly circulated over a freezing plate. As the
water freezes into ice, the minerals in the water are rejected.
This produces a clear sheet of ice with a low mineral content.
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.
The water containing the rejected minerals is drained after
each freezing cycle.
4.
5.
Fresh water enters the machine for the next ice making cycle.
Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin is full, the ice
maker shuts off automatically and restarts when more ice is
needed. The ice bin is not refrigerated, and some melting will
occur. The amount of melting varies with room temperature.
%
NOTE: As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the
amount of ice produced and stored. This means that higher
operating temperatures result in reduced ice production.
1. To start ice production, press ON. Allow 24 hours to produce
the first batch of ice, and discard the first three batches of ice
produced.
• To start the normal ice making cycle, press ON. Press the
NORM ICE switch. Normal ice production should produce
approximately 25 Ibs (11.4 kg) of ice in a 24-hour period.
• To start the maximum ice production cycle, press ON.
Press the TWICE ICE switch. The ice maker will then
produce approximately 50 Ibs (22.7 kg) of ice in a
24-hour period. This cycle should be selected when you
have an upcoming need for a lot of clear, clean ice and
the ice bin is low to empty.
2. To stop ice maker operation, press OFR
2 LEV{LICE CAPACITY - 3 CYCLE " SELF CLEANING
@®0 00
NOTE: The CLEAN CYCLE setting is used whenever solutions
are circulated through the ice maker for cleaning. Only the water
pump and compressor operate at this setting. See "Cleaning."
ICE MAKER CARE
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 prevent 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.
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 purchase cleaner please call f-800-4-MY-HOME ®
(f -800-469-4663}.
f. Push the selector switch to OFE
2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the storage bin,
Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Unscrew the drain cap from the bottom of the water pan
located inside the storage bin as shown. Allow the water to
drain completely.
4. Replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the drain
cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and you will
have either thin ice or no ice.
5. Read and follow all handling information on the cleaner bottle
before completing the steps below. Use one 16 oz (473 mL)
bottle of approved ice maker cleaner.
6. Pour one bottle of solution into the water pan. Fill the bottle
twice with tap water and pour it into the water pan,
7. Push the selector switch to CLEAN. (See the "Using the
Controls" section.) The light will turn on, indicating that the
cleaning cycle is in process. When the indicator light turns off
(approximately 45 minutes), the cleaning cycle is complete.
During the cleaning cycle, the system will both clean and
rinse itself.
8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the drain cap
from the water pan to see if any cleaning solution is left in the
water pan. If cleaning solution drains from the water pan, you
should run the clean cycle again. Be sure to replace the drain
cap securely on the water pan. If the drain cap is loose, water
will empty from the water pan and you will have either thin ice
or no ice.
NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated cleaning with
a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.
9. Push the selector switch to ON to resume ice production,
Condenser
A dirty or clogged condenser:
• Prevents proper airflow.
• Reduces ice making capacity.
• Causes higher than recommended operating temperatures
which may lead to component failure.
Electrical Shock Hazard

8. If the room temperature will drop below 32°F (0°C), remove
water from the drain line.
For ice makers with a drain pump installed:
• Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
• Turn ice maker off and remove all remaining ice from ice
bin.
• Pour 1 qt (0.95 L) of water into the ice bin near the drain
and let the unit stand for approximately 5 minutes. This
will allow the water in the bin to drain into the drain pump
so that the pump will remove the remaining water from
the ice bin and the drain pump.
• Unplug ice maker or disconnect power.
9. Before using again, clean the ice maker and storage bin.
10. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your ice maker will not operate
• Is the control set to ON? Be sure that the control is set to
ON.
msthe power cord plugged in? Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
Is the room temperature cooler than normal? Room
temperature must be above 55°F (13°C). Otherwise, bin
thermostat may sense cold room temperature and shut off
even though the bin is not full of ice. Also, unit may not restart
once it does shut off.
Does the red light come on when the Clean button is
pushed? The ice maker is receiving power but may need
cleaning. See "Cleaning."
Does the ice maker have a drain pump? Ifthere was a large
amount of water added to the ice maker, wait a few minutes
for the drain pump to clear. If there is still water in the bin,
check to see whether the drain hose is kinked,
Ice maker seems noisy
• Is water being circulated through the ice maker? This is
normal operation. Water is added once per ice-making cycle.
Is the water in the reservoir overflowing? This is normal.
This overflow helps to purge minerals that were removed from
the water during the ice making process,
• Is there a "whooshing" sound? Check the following things:
• Make sure that the water supply is hooked up and turned
on,
• Make sure that the drain cap is tight.
Is there ice between the evaporator plate and the cutting
grid? Check to be sure that the ice maker is level. See
"Leveling," If the ice maker is level, and the problem persists,
run a cleaning cycle, See "Cleaning."
Ice maker runs but produces very little ice
• Is the room temperature hotter than normal? Room
temperatures of more than 90°F (32°C) will normally reduce
ice production.
• Is the condenser dirty? Dirt or lint may be blocking the
airflow through the condenser. See "Cleaning."
• Is there scale buildup in the ice maker? Ifthere is white
scale buildup in the ice maker's water or freezing system, you
should clean the ice maker. See "Cleaning."
• Is the drain cap securely in place? If the drain cap is loose,
water will empty from the water pan, and you will have either
thin ice or no ice, Tighten the drain cap if it is loose.
Grid isnot cutting ice sheets
Is the cutter grid securely in place? Unplug ice maker or
disconnect power. Remove the cutter grid cover and check
the cutter grid harness plug to make sure the connection is
secure. See "Cleaning" for instructions on cutter grid
removal.
Off taste, odor or gray color in the ice
• Is there unusually high mineral content in the water
supply? The water may need to be filtered or treated.
Is there mineral scale buildup? Clean your ice maker. See
"Cleaning,"
Are there food items stored in the ice bin? Do not store any
foods in the ice bin.
Were all the packaging materials removed? Make sure that
all packaging materials were removed at the time of
installation.
Thin, soft or clumps of ice
• Is there unusually high mineral content in the water
supply? The water may need to be filtered or treated.
Ice maker runs but produces no ice
• Is the control set to ON? Be sure that the control is set to
ON.
Is there mineral scale buildup? Clean your ice maker. See
"Cleaning,"
Are there clumps of ice in the bin? If ice is not used
regularly it will melt and form clumps. Break the clumps with
the ice scoop provided.
Is the water supply connected? Make sure the water supply
is properly connected and turned on,
Is the drain cap securely in place? If the drain cap is loose,
water will empty from the water pan, and you will have either
thin ice or no ice. Tighten the drain cap,
• Is there debris in the drain tube? Clean the drain tube.
u P ob ens
• Is the drain hose aligned over the drain? Move the ice
maker to align the drain. See "Connect Water Supply."
NOTE: Service technicians can not repair plumbing problems
outside of the ice maker. Call a licensed, qualified plumber.
• Is there a kink in the drain line? Be sure that there are no
kinks in the line.

lineas de desagQe. Esto evitara que el agua regrese al cajdn de
almacenaje de la fabrica de hielo y probablemente caiga en el
piso ocasionando daffos.
• Las lineas de desagOe deben tener un minimo de %"
(15,88 mm) de diametro interno.
Las lineas de desagQe deben tener una caida de 1" por cada
48" (2,54 cm por cada 122 cm) de recorrido o 1/4"per cada
12" (6,35 mm por 30,48 cm) y no deben tener puntos bajos
donde el agua pueda asentarse.
• Los desagQes por el piso deben set Io suficientemente
grandes para acomodar todos los desagQes.
La instalacidn ideal tiene un tubo vertical con un reductor de
desagQe de PVC de 11/2"(3,81 cm) a 2" (5,08 cm) instalado
directamente debajo del orificio de salida del tubo de
desagOe segQn se ilustra. Usted debe mantener un espacio
de aire de 1" (2,54 cm) entre la manguera de la bomba de
desagQe y el tubo vertical.
• Seffa ideal aislar la linea de desagQe completamente hasta el
orificio de entrada del desagQe.

Su fabrica de hielo nueva puede producir algunos sonidos que
no le sean familiares. Es posible que usted este preocupado
debido a que se trata de sonidos que no escuch6 con
anterioridad. La mayor parte de los sonidos nuevos son
normales. Las superficies duras, como serfan los pisos, paredes
y gabinetes pueden hacerlos sonar mas fuerte de Io que son
realmente. A continuaci6n se describen los tipos de sonidos que
pudieran ser nuevos para usted y que es Io que los produce.
• Cuando la valvula de agua se abre para Ilenar el dep6sito de
agua para cada ciclo, se pudiera escuchar un zumbido.
El caudal del refrigerante o de la Ifnea de agua pudiera
ocasionar ruidos metalicos. Tambien los articulos que estan
almacenados encima de la fabrica de hielo pueden producir
ruidos.
• El compresor de eficiencia alta pudiera producir un sonido
pulsante o agudo.
• El agua corriendo sobre la placa del evaporador pudiera
producir un sonido de salpicaduras.
• El agua corriendo de la placa del evaporador hacia el
dep6sito de agua pudiera producir un sonido de
salpicaduras.
• AI acercarse el fin del ciclo pudiera escucharse un sonido de
borboteo debido al caudal del refrigerante fluyendo en la
fabrica de hielo.
• Es posible escuchar un sonido como de aire forzado por el
ventilador del condensador por encima del condensador.
• Es posible escuchar un "ruido sordo" durante el ciclo de
recolecci6n cuando la capa de hielo se desliza del
evaporador hacia la rejilla cortadora.
AI arrancar la fabrica de hielo por primera vez, se pudiera
escuchar agua que fluye continuamente. La fabrica de hielo
esta programada para ejecutar un ciclo de enjuague antes de
iniciar la fabricaci6n del hielo.
