• 

To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be completely 
unobstructed. Allow at least 101 mm (4”) clearance at rear, and 15 mm (0.6”) at top and sides 
for proper air circulation. The installation should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for 
servicing if necessary. 

•  When installing the ice maker under a counter, follow the recommended spacing dimensions 

shown.    Place electrical and water supplies and drain fixtures in the recommended locations 
as shown. 

•  Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 55ºF (13ºC) and below 80ºF (27ºC). 

This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements, such as wind, rain, water 
spray or drips. 

  •   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 6.35 mm (1/4 in.) soft 

copper tubing with a shut-off valve and a gravity-drain system.   

(NOTE: Run-off water can also be drained into a sink via a pump – not included – when a 

gravity drain is not available.) 

•  The ice maker requires a continuous water supply with a minimum pressure of 20psig and a 

static pressure not to exceed 80psig.  The temperature of the water feeding into the ice 
maker should be between 41ºF (5ºC) and 77ºF (25ºC) for proper operation

.

 

 
 

 
 
 

 
Normal operating ambient temperature should be between 55ºF

 

(13ºC) to 80ºF (27ºC).    Normal operating water temperature 

should be between 41ºF (5ºC) and 77ºF (25ºC).    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. Where water is very hard, softened water may 
result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Deionized water is not recommended. 

•  The ice maker must be installed with all electrical, water and drain connections in accordance 

with 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 
revolving the feet. See the Leveling the Ice Maker section.
