with bleach.  
Keep your Stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good  
quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly  
basis. For best results use Claire Stainless Steel Polish and  
Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line Corporation  
(Part numbers 173348). Frequent cleaning will remove surface  
contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations may  
require cleaning on a weekly basis.

Inspection  
Unwrap and inspect the unit on a flat, level surface capable of  
supporting it’s entire weight. If necessary remove protective film  
from Stainless Steel models.  
Do not clean with steel wool or abrasive pads.  
Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended  
for stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes  
glass, tile and counter cleaners).  
If any surface discolors or rust appears, clean it quickly with  
Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser and a non-abrasive  
cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish  
this process with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or  
comparable product to prevent further problems.  
WARNING  
Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the  
surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of  
the rust may not be possible.

Electrical installation must observe all state and local  
codes. This unit requires connection to a grounded (three-  
prong), polarized receptacle that has been placed by a  
qualified electrician.  
The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60 Hz, 15A  
power supply (normal household current). An individual, properly  
grounded branch circuit or circuit breaker is recommended. GFCI  
(ground fault circuit interrupter) is usually not required for fixed  
location appliances and is not recommended for your unit because  
a GFCI could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure to  
consult your local codes.

Drain Connection (CLR2160 CLRCO2175)  
11 Prepare Plumbing  
IMPORTANT  
• Drain can NOT be located directly below unit. Unit has  
a solid base that will not allow the unit to drain below  
itself.  
CAUTION  
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local  
codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by  
a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow  
recommendations and instructions may result in damage  
and/or harm.  
We strongly recommend the use of a U-Line drain kit  
for both gravity & pump installations. A complete drain  
kit containing all the items needed to connect your unit  
are available from your dealer. Part No. U-  
CLRDRAINKIT.  
Water Supply Connection  
Longer drain connections may require additional drain  
hose lengths. Additional drain line can be purchased  
from your dealer or directly from McMaster-Carr.  
(McMaster-Carr # 52375K35)  
When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:  
Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.  
Connect to the cold water supply.  
The CLR2160 or CLRCO2175 can be installed using a Gravity  
Drain, a Factory-Installed Drain Pump (U-Line P60) or a Locally-  
Installed (U-Line P60) Drain Pump. Drain lines must have a 5/8”  
inside diameter. The floor drain must be large enough to  
accommodate drainage from all attached drains.  
The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.  
The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the 1/4” O.D.  
supply line.  
Leave approximately 8’ of water line to be coiled behind the  
appliance. The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This  
will allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing.  
However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or  
damaged during installation.  
Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water  
from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/or potentially  
flowing onto the floor, causing water damage:  
Gravity Drain  
A Gravity Drain may be used if:  
IMPORTANT  
Drain line has at least a 1-inch drop per 48 inches of run (1/4  
inch per foot).  
U-Line requires the use of copper tubing for installation.  
Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line is under  
pressure at all times. Plastic may crack or rupture with  
age and cause water damage to your home.  
Normal  
Proper Drain  
To connect to water supply:  
1. Locate the desired cold  
water supply location. Attach  
a 1/4” copper line to this  
location and route the tubing  
to the appliance. Leave

Poor Drainage, Water Will Back Up  
approximately 8’ of water line  
to be coiled behind the  
appliance. The water line  
should be looped into 2 coils.  
This will allow the line to flex  
when removing the unit for  
cleaning and servicing.

To check and test hose connections:  
Factory-Installed Drain Pump  
1. Make certain the unit is not plugged into an electrical outlet.  
If your drain line will run up to a stand pipe, disposal or spigot  
assembly, or does not otherwise meet the requirements for a  
Gravity Drain, you may have ordered the CLR2160 or  
CLRCO2175 with a U-Line P60 Drain Pump. See Below for typical  
installations requiring a Drain Pump. If you need to install a P60  
Drain Pump into your unit, see Locally-Installed Drain Pump on  
Page 14.

seconds. Not doing this will cause the unit to start the fill cycle  
which will run for 3 minutes.  
8. Verify pump operation by pouring one gallon of water into the  
ice storage bin of the ice maker. The pump should energize and  
pump the water into the container.  
IMPORTANT  
Before installing your U-Line CLR2160 or CLRCO2175  
with Factory-Installed U-Line P60 Pump, it is extremely  
important to check and test all hose connections at the  
drain pump. There is a possibility that hose connections  
may have loosened during shipment.  
9. At this time, verify that all tube and clamp connections are tight  
and leak-free.  
10. Unplug unit power cord from electrical outlet.

3. Attach the copper water line to the back of the unit using the  
supplied clamp and the back panel screw (see above). This will  
prevent rotation of the line when moving the unit.  
If a gravity drain connection is not possible, and you have not  
purchased a CLR2160 or CLRCO2175 with factory-installed  
pump, we strongly recommend the use of the U-Line P60 drain  
pump. The U-Line P60 drain pump is available through your Dealer,  
with complete installation instructions. If a pump other than the U-  
Line P60 drain pump is to be used, it must meet the following  
specifications:  
4. Plug in the unit and put unit into OFF mode by holding the  
power key for 10 seconds. Not doing this will cause the unit to  
fill with water for 3 minutes.  
5. Turn on the water supply and ensure the connections are free of  
leaks.  
It must be UL listed and have a UL listed, 120 VAC, 3-wire  
grounded power cord.  
6. Begin to push the appliance into the desired cabinet opening.  
The copper tubing should remain in 2 coils behind the unit.  
It must have overall maximum outside dimensions of 8-3/4"  
wide x 5-3/4" deep x 7-3/4" high.  
IMPORTANT  
It must have a minimum flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute at  
10 feet of lift.  
Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply  
line contacting cabinet wall may cause excessive noise  
during operation or damage to the line.  
It must have a sealed sump which does not allow water leakage  
in the case of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure.  
It must have a check valve in the discharge line to prevent waste  
water return to the pump.  
7. While pushing the unit into the opening, continuously reroute  
the drain tube (if installed) to avoid kinks. The most common  
installation pulls the slack into an adjacent cabinet or basement  
area.  
It must have an overflow protection control which will shut off  
power to the ice maker in the event of a pump failure.  
It must have an operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F  
(10°C to 40°C).  
IMPORTANT  
In the event of a power outage, restricted drain or pump  
failure, the failure to use the U-Line P60 drain pump or a  
pump with the above listed specifications, could result in  
substantial water leakage and pooling with severe and  
costly water damage and related consequential damages  
and harm.

3. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to kink the  
water supply line or entangle the electrical cord.  
2. If the unit is not level, adjust the feet on the corners of the unit  
as necessary (not available in CO29 models).  
4. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to side. Make  
any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top surface should be  
approximately 1/8" below the counter top.  
5. Remove the tape from the glass shelves and wipe out the inside  
of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.  
Relocating the Shelves  
Both the glass shelves in the refrigerator and the inner door  
shelves can be moved to accommodate your bottles, cans and  
containers.  
Glass Shelves on Right-Hand Hinge Units  
Turn Foot to Adjust  
Open door fully, grasp shelf firmly, lift front edge slightly, and  
pull straight out.  
3. Check the levelness after each adjustment and repeat the  
previous steps until the unit is level.  
Choose new location and slide shelf onto the appropriate rib.  
INSTALLATION TIP  
Glass Shelves on Left-Hand Hinge Units  
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cut-out opening,  
adjust the rear feet to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8" less  
than the opening’s rear height. Shorten the unit height in the front  
by adjusting the front feet. This allows the unit to be gently tipped  
into the opening. Readjust the front feet to level the unit after it is  
correctly positioned in the opening.  
Pull shelf out about 6” to clear the wall’s molded protrusion.  
Tilt right-hand edge of shelf up.  
Keeping at this angle and hugging the right wall, pull the shelf  
out.  
Choose new location and insert over ribs, tilting right-hand  
edge up. Push in, then lower shelf onto ribs.  
Door Shelves  
First pull shelf up at a 45° angle, then straight out (see Figure  
39).  
Choose new location and line up on bosses. First push straight  
in, then down at a 45° angle.

Installation Troubleshooting  
Problem  
Q:  
Water is leaking under the unit.  
Solution  
A:  
A water leak under the unit is most likely caused by a bad  
connection in the water supply line. Make sure the water line’s  
brass fitting is screwed tight to its valve and threaded correctly.  
Problem  
Q:  
The door remains open unless it is pushed closed.  
Solution  
A:  
The hinges should be self-closing when the door is open  
approximately 8". If this is not the case, make sure the closers (at  
the bottom of the hinge pin) are clean, greased and installed  
correctly. Also, re-check leveling from front to back of the unit  
and readjust if necessary. Make sure that pivot plate is installed  
correctly.  
Problem  
Q:  
The custom overlay door was designed to align with the rest of the  
cabinet doors, but the unit has crept forward.  
Solution  
A:  
Make sure that the electrical cord and water supply line are not  
obstructing the installation.
