IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the ice maker is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. We strongly recommend that
you have a professional install your new machine. The warranty may be affected or
voided by an incorrect installation. To reduce the risk
of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the ice maker, follow basic precautions, including the
following:
 Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet; do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter,
and do not use an extension cord.
 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.
 Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
 Never unplug the ice maker by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
 Never clean ice maker parts with flammable fluids. Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can
create a fire hazard or explosion.
 Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the
unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off.
 Before operating, put all panels back into place.
 Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the ice maker.
 Do not touch the evaporator with your hand when the machine is operating.
 Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do
so can result in electrical shock or death.
 Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your ice maker unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
 Use two or more people to move and install the ice maker. Failure to do so can result in back
or other injury.
 Never install or operate the unit in an enclosed area, such as a closed cabinet. To ensure
proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.
Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 50°F (10°C) and below 100°F (38°C).
The optimum supplied water temperature would be below 50°F. This unit MUST be installed in
an area protected from the elements, such as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
 The ice maker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
 The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with
state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 A), properly grounded
in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
 Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and cabinet.



 The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes. It is important for the ice maker to be
leveled in order to work properly. Otherwise water may not flow properly through the evaporator
(ice mold). The ice production will be less than normal. You may need to make several
adjustments to level it.
 All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
 Make certain that hoses are not pinched, kinked or damaged during installation.
 Check for leaks after water line is connected.
 Although the unit has been tested and cleaned at the factory, due to long-term transit and
storage, the first batch of cubes must be discarded.
 Remove the packing materials and clean the ice maker before using.
 Turn on the water supply tap before switching on the ice maker. Never turn the water supply
tap off when the ice maker is working.
 Except to take ice from the unit, keep the door closed in order to reduce ice melting and to
promote proper ice formation.
 If the ice maker will not be used for a long time, before the next use it must be thoroughly
cleaned. Follow carefully any instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing solution. Do
not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
 Do not touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be easily damaged.
 DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may
transmit taste to the ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
 The ice machine cleaner contains acids. Do not use or mix with any other solvent-based
cleaning products. Use rubber gloves to protect hands. Carefully read the safety instructions on
the container of the ice machine cleaner.
 Do not use the apparatus other than for its intended purpose.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators and freezers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a
few days.”
 Before you throw away your old refrigerator, ice maker or freezer: Take off the
doors. Leave the shelves or drawers in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
 Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator/freezer.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical Connection
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this appliance
is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug that mates with a standard 3-prong grounding wall
outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance. Have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The ice maker should always be
plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating

label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug your
ice maker by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
outlet. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either
end. When moving the ice maker, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that
you do not use an extension cord with this ice maker.
Unpacking, etc.
After removing the packing materials, check the appearance of the ice maker for
possible defects or irregularity. If the product shows any irregularity in its
appearance, contact the distributor.
All the packing materials (straps, box, Styrofoam, wood, etc.) should never be left within
the reach of children and should be disposed of according to local regulations.
For safety, the product should be installed and used with caution in accordance with the
User’s manual.
Incorrect installation or careless use of the product may damage or injure the
environment, humans, animals, and/or materials and property. The manufacturer does
not bear any responsibility for the aforesaid damage or injury.
The automatic ice maker performs best at room temperature of 50~75°F and a supply of
water at 50°F.
The ice maker may be installed in either an indoor or outdoor environment, but it should
NOT be installed near heat generators such as heaters, stoves, or dish washers.
Outside air
The ice maker sucks air through the left section of the kickplate/grill using a fan and
expels hot air through the right section of the kickplate/grill. If anything is placed in front
of the kickplate/grill, the flow of air flow is disrupted, resulting in reduced performance
and, in the worst case, malfunction. The ice maker can be operated within a
temperature range of 50°F to 100°F.
Water supply
The ice maker requires a continuous supply of drinking water at 20psi or higher
pressure. The hydrostatic pressure should not exceed 80 psi.
Water quality
There is no such thing as “perfectly pure” water. All kinds of water including tap water
contain some impurities. Rainwater absorbs impurities from the atmosphere or when it
passes through soil. Some impurities consist of solid particles called suspended solids
and are filtered through micro filters. Any remaining impurities cannot be filtered
because they are chemically combined with water molecules. These impurities are
called dissolved solids.

The mineral content of the ice produced by the ice maker is reduced compared to the
content in the water before conversion into ice. Water containing a low level of
impurities is rapidly frozen. The reason for this is that the impurities elevate the
temperature of the water. Through such action, most of the impurities condensed in the
water-tank of the ice maker form a hard precipitation called scale.
This icemaker reduces the mineral level by circulating water during the harvest cycle
(the excessive quantity is removed through the outlet tube). Each cycle requires about

tank and the remaining quantity is removed through the outlet pipe. In this process,
some impurities unavoidably remain and may accumulate on the internal parts of the ice
maker, forming abnormally shaped ice cubes. If a large quantity of mineral scale
accumulates, the lifespan of the ice maker may be reduced.
For best operation of the ice maker, impurities and minerals should be decomposed by
washing periodically. The method of cleaning the ice maker is described on pages 18 -
21.
In general, it is best to use filtered water. Filters may remove not only bad odor but also
particles. Neutral water is not recommended.
Water softener is not recommended because it exchanges minerals. If the hardness of
the water is very high, softening may lead to the formation of opaque pieces of ice.
If you have any questions about the purity of your water, address your inquiry about
water treatment to an expert in water quality.
This product was thoroughly washed at the factory. However, check the cleanness of
the inside before use and keep it clean during use.
