Marvel 15" Built-In Ice Maker - Black Cabinet & Overlay Door User Manual
INSTALLING YOUR ICE MACHINE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your ap-
pliance. We recommend a location where the ice machine will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To assure
your product performs to specifications the recommended
installation location temperature range is from 55 to 80°F (13 to
27°C) for built in ice machines, 55 to 90°F (13 to 32°C) for free-
standing ice machines. Ice machine will not perform correctly in
ambient temperatures less than 55°F (13°C).
Outdoor Installation
Only the 3OiMT model is suitable for outdoor installations.
Building codes may require a ground fault circuit interrupter
electrical receptacle to supply electrical power to the ice
machine for outdoor applications, (see “Electrical Connection”
section).
Do not install in a location where the ice machine will be ex-
posed to direct sun exposure as this may result in unsatisfactory
performance.
Winterizing Your Outdoor Ice Machine
For instructions on winterizing your ice machine see page 23,
“Preparing the Ice Machine for Storage”.
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the ice
machine. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. Ad-
jacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around the ice
machine as long as the front grille remains unobstructed.

Leveling Legs

this area open.

Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the ice machine
should be set so the ice machine is firmly positioned on the floor
and level from side to side and front to back. The overall height
of your Marvel ice machine may be adjusted from 333/4” (85.7cm)
with the leveling legs turned in, and up to 343/4” (88.3cm) with
the leveling legs extended.
To adjust the leveling legs, place the ice machine on a solid
surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid scratch-
ing the floor. With the assistance of another person, lean the ice
machine back to access the front leveling legs. Raise or lower the
legs to the required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this
process for the rear by tilting the ice machine forward using cau-
tion to prevent the door from opening. On a level surface check
the ice machine for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the front grille
adjusted to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 3).

Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front
grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat exchanger.
Restrictions to this air flow will result in increased energy usage
and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important this
area to not be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean.
AGA MARVEL does not recommend the use of a custom made
grille as air flow may be restricted because of inadequate open-
ings. (See Figure 2).
