Location Requirements
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front side 
must be completely unobstructed. The ice maker 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 or 
a Whirlpool supply line Part Number 8212547RB, and a 
Whirlpool approved drain pump, Part Number 1901A, only to 
carry the water to an existing drain.
Choose a well ventilated area with temperatures above 55°F 
(13°C) and below 110°F (43°C). Best results are obtained 
between 70°F and 90°F (21ºC and 32°C). 
The ice maker must be installed in an area sheltered from the 
elements, such as wind, rain, water spray, or drip.
When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the 
recommended opening dimensions shown. Place electrical 
and plumbing fixtures in the recommended location as 
shown.
NOTES: 
Check that the power supply cord is not damaged, or 
pinched or kinked between the ice maker and the 
cabinet.
Check that the water supply line is not damaged, or 
pinched or kinked between the ice maker and the 
cabinet. 
Check that the drain line (on some models) is not 
damaged, or pinched or kinked between the ice maker 
and the cabinet.
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.” 
Electrical Requirements
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- or 20-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. 
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground 
Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the 
power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. 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
The ice maker must be grounded. The ice maker is equipped with 
a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. 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 personal responsibility of the customer to 
have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle installed by a 
qualified electrician.
