• 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.

Never use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
electrical shock or death.
IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and
wall or cabinet.
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is important to make sure you
have the proper electrical connection.
A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz, 15 A), 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
receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
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-pronged and 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.

Leveling the Ice Maker
It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or
lowered by rotating the plastic sheaths around each of the four rolling casters on the bottom
of the machine. If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the casters until the ice
maker becomes level. You may need to make several adjustments to level it. We recommend
using a carpenter’s level to check the machine.
You will find that the casters make it easy for one person to move the machine. This is
useful for cleaning and sanitizing the surface on which the ice maker is installed because it
allows you to move the unit and have easy access to the surface to be cleaned.
IMPORTANT: Once you are ready to install the ice maker in a cabinet or directly on the
floor, you must adjust the feet to level the ice maker and lock the rollers. If the floor is
level, just revolve the two front feet to touch the floor. (See illustration.)
Water Supply and Drain Connections
The water supply and drain should be ready at the point of installation. A wall outlet directly
behind the ice maker will make installation easier.
IMPORTANT:
1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional
installation is recommended.
2. Make certain that the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required:
½ inch open-end wrench
Phillips screwdriver

Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long enough to clear the 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.
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
remove the nut.
4. Connect nuts of water supply hose to tap and water inlet valve. 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
any connections (including connections at the valve) or nuts that leak.
Water tap (¼"o.d.)
Water inlet valve
Nut of water draining hole
Water supply line
Drain line

NOTE: Connection to the water line may vary according to installation requirements.
Drain Line:
IMPORTANT: This ice maker is not a freezer. It must connect to a drain line. Your
machine comes equipped with a gravity drain. Depending on your plumbing setup, a
condensation pump may be required. Poor drainage will cause a high rate of melting in
the ice storage bin and may cause flooding or your machine to shut off.
Connecting the drain line:
NOTE: If there is a drain line near the ice maker or the ice maker will be used as an
outdoor unit, the best choice is to drain water to the drain line through the drain 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 hose provided with the ice maker is about 5 feet.
2. Find the drain outlet on the back of ice maker, then take off the rear drainage plug.
Connect the nut of the drain outlet to the water draining hose, and insert the other side of
the hose into the drain line.
12
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
NOTE: The drain hose should never be allowed to hang or loop higher than the bottom
of the ice storage bin.
3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of ¼” per foot. An air gap will likely
be required between the ice maker drain hose and the drain/waste receptacle. A stand
pipe with a trap below it would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain
is also acceptable.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for leaks at all drain connections
and at the nut of the drain water hole. Tighten any connections or nuts that leak.
Installation Types

the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
• Never turn the water supply tap off when the icemaker is working.
How the Machine Makes Ice
There are two distinct cycles: freeze and harvest. During the freeze cycle, water is sprayed
against the evaporator surface. In the harvest cycle, the ice is released and water enters the
machine. A complete cycle takes about 20 minutes, but is dependent on temperature and
operating conditions.
Freeze: During the freeze cycle the compressor is pumping refrigerant, the fan motor
is blowing air, and the water pump is circulating water. When the batch of ice has been
fully formed, the ice maker stops the freeze cycle and begins to harvest the
ice.
ice.
15
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Harvest: During the harvest cycle the compressor is still operating, but the water pump has
stopped. Two other components have been energized: the hot gas valve and the water
inlet valve. These two valves open and warm up the freezing surface, allowing the
cubes to fall into the bin. The freeze cycle will restart when all the cubes have been
harvested.
How the machine uses water:
The ice maker
begins with a fixed
charge of water that
is contained in the
water sump. As the
water is sprayed
against the freezing
evaporator surface,
the portion of water
that does not contain
mineral impurities
will freeze and stick
to the ice cube molds.
The water containing
impurities falls back
into the water sump.
Gradually, during the
freezing portion of the ice-making cycle, the water in the sump will become highly
concentrated with mineral impurities.
During the harvest cycle, fresh water flows into the machine to dilute the bin water and
rinse the concentrated minerals down the drain.
Normal Sounds
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of the new sounds are
normal. Hard surfaces like the floor and walls 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 swooshing sound when the water valve opens to fill the water sump 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.
16
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
● Water running from the water sump to the evaporator plate may make a splashing sound.
● Water running from the evaporator to the water sump 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 the sound of ice cubes falling into the ice storage bin.
● 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.
Preparing the Ice Maker for Long Storage
If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be
necessary to drain the system of water.
● Shut off the water supply at the main water source.
● Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet valve.
● Disconnect the drain pipe to the drain line or floor drain.
● Allow the ice maker to run for an hour or more until all remaining ice cubes have been ejected
from the ice maker assembly.
● Shut off the electric supply at the main electrical power source.
● Screw off the nut of the water drain hole at the back of the machine, drain out water residue
completely (do not loosen or screw off the nut at other times), then tighten the nut after
finishing.
● Leave the door open to allow for circulation and prevent mold and mildew.
● Leave water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to reuse.

Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life.
The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the
intervals if you have pets or the unit is used outdoors or there are other special considerations.
What shouldn’t be done
Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice: objects like wine and beer bottles are
not only unsanitary, but the labels may slip off and plug up the drain.
What should be kept clean
There are 4 things to keep clean:
1. The exterior
2. The condenser
3. The interior
4. The ice making system
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations,
