Installation
BEFORE USING YOUR ICE MAKER
• REMOVE THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR PACKAGING MATERIAL.
• CHECK TO BE SURE YOU HAVE ALL OF THE FOLLOWING PARTS:
• 1 DOOR HANDLE& 2 SCREWS
• 2 DECORATIVE PLUGS
• 1 ICE BUCKET
• 1 ICE SCOOP
• 1 INSTRUCTION MANUAL (THE ONE YOU ARE READING)
• BEFORE CONNECTING THE ICE MAKER TO THE POWER SOURCE, LET IT STAND UPRIGHT FOR
APPROXIMATELY 4 HOURS. THIS WILL REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF A MALFUNCTION IN THE
COOLING SYSTEM FROM HANDLING DURING TRANSPORTATION.
• CLEAN THE INTERIOR SURFACE WITH LUKEWARM WATER USING A SOFT CLOTH.
INSTALLATION THE ICE MAKER
• THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO VENT HOT AIR THROUGH THE FRONT VENT. THIS ALLOWS FOR
INSTALLATION INA RECESSED OR BUILT-IN APPLICATION, IF DESIRED.
• PLACE YOUR ICE MAKER ON A LEVEL SURFACE THAT IS
STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT THE ICE MAKER WHEN IT IS
FULLY LOADED. REMEMBER THAT THE UNIT WILL BE
SIGNIFICANTLY HEAVIER ONCE IT IS OPERATIONALAND
FULLY LOADED. LEVELYOUR ICE MAKER BYADJUSTING THE
LEGS AT THE FRONT OF THE ICE MAKER.
• LOCATE THE ICE MAKER AWAY FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT
AND SOURCES OF HEAT (STOVE, HEATER, RADIATOR, ETC.).
DIRECT SUNLIGHT MAYAFFECT THE FINISH AND HEAT
SOURCES MAY INCREASE ELECTRICAL CONSUMPTION. EXTREME COLD AMBIENT TEMPERATURES
MAYALSO CAUSE THE ICE MAKER MALFUNCTION. THIS ICE MAKER IS DESIGNED FOR
INSTALLATION INDOORS IN “ROOM TEMPERATURE” AMBIENT CONDITIONS.
• POSITION UNIT TO ALLOW FREE AIRFLOW THROUGH
THE FRONT GRILLE , AVOID LOCATING THE ICE
MAKER IN MOIST/HUMID AREAS. TOO MUCH
MOISTURE IN THE AIR WILL CAUSE FROST TO FORM
QUICKLY ON THE EVAPORATOR REQUIRING
FREQUENT DEFROSTING.
• PLUG THE ICE MAKER INTO AN EXCLUSIVE
PROPERLY INSTALLED GROUNDED WALL OUTLET. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR
5
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD. ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING
POWER AND/OR GROUNDING SHOULD BE DIRECTED TOWARD A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
•The product is designed and
manufactured for seamless integration
in the specified cutout opening shown,
which requires precise measurements.
The opening must be square and
plumb front to back.Although not
required, you may choose to increase
the overall cutout width for ease of
installation.
REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
THIS APPLIANCE HAS THE CAPABILITY OF THE DOOR OPENING FROM EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT
SIDE. THE UNIT IS DELIVERED TO YOU WITH THE DOOR OPENING FROM THE LEFT SIDE (HINGED ON
THE RIGHT).
Tools needed: flathead screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver
IMPORTANT: Before you begin, Make sure the ice maker is unplugged.
1. Open the screw cap on the top hinge and unscrew 3 bolts to take away the top hinge and then lift out the
door.
2. Peel off the door gasket, located the door handle mounting screw behind the gasket and unscrew to take
out the door handle, use the spare plugs in the accerssaies to cover the mounting hole.

3. Take away the 2 plugs in the front of the door, install the door handle on the opposite position, then push
to insert the door gasket back. finish the door handle reverse.
4. Unscrew to take away the bottom hinge, and then remove the caps in the left of the cabinet and install the
bottom hinge at the left.
5. Install the door on the bottom hinge, and then install the top hinge on the left. Tighten firmly.
6. Done.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
• THIS ICE MAKER SHOULD BE PROPERLY GROUNDED FOR YOUR SAFETY. THE POWER CORD OF THIS
ICE MAKER IS EQUIPPED WITH A THREE-PRONG PLUG WHICH MATES WITH STANDARD THREE PRONG
WALL OUTLETS TO MINIMIZE THE POSSIBILITY OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
• DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD GROUND PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD SUPPLIED.
• DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO CONNECT POWER TO THE UNIT.
• DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG GROUNDING ADAPTER.
• IF YOU ONLY HAVE A TWO-PRONG WALL RECEPTACLE, CONTACTA QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN TO
HAVE IT REPLACED WITH A 3-PRONG RECEPTACLE IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE ELECTRICAL
CODES.
• THIS ICE MAKER REQUIRES A STANDARD 115 VOLTS A.C. 60HZ ELECTRICAL OUTLET WITH
THREE-PRONG GROUND.
• THE CORD SHOULD BE SECURED BEHIND THE ICE MAKER AND NOT LEFT EXPOSED OR LOOSE
EXTENSION CORD
BECAUSE OF POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARDS, THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE WITH
AN EXTENSION CORD. HOWEVER, IF YOU MUST USE AN EXTENSION CORD, USE ONLYA
UL/CUL-LISTED, 3-WIRE GROUNDING TYPE APPLIANCE EXTENSION CORD WITH A GROUNDING TYPE
PLUG AND OUTLET. THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE CORD MUST BE 115 VOLTS AND AT LEAST 10
AMPS.
CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
ALL THE NECESSARY HARDWARE IS NOT PROVIDED (AS THE PLUMBING FIXTURES AT THE
INSTALLATION POINT MAY DIFFER) FOR INSTALLATION SO IT IS NECESSARY TO HIREA
PROFESSIONAL LICENSED PLUMBER TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION.
• CONNECT THE WATER SUPPLY TUBE TO THE NEAREST COLD WATER SOURCE. CONNECT SUFFICIENT
TUBING TO THE UNIT TO ALLOW THE APPLIANCE TO BE MOVED FREELY FOR CLEANING AND
SERVICE. ALSO MAKE SURE THAT THE TUBING IS NOT PINCHED OR DAMAGED DURING
TRANSPORTATION/INSTALLATION.
• WIPE OUT INSIDE OF UNITAND ICE BUCKET WITH A DAMP CLOTH.

Operating
INITIAL START-UP OPERATION
1. PLUG THE APPLIANCE INTO A 115/120V POLARIZED AND GROUNDED WALL
ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
2. PLACE THE ON-OFF SWITCH IN THE “I” POSITION.
3. MAKE SURE THE WATER SUPPLY IS ON. AS SOON AS THE INNER MECHANISM
REACHES THE PROPER TEMPERATURE, THE ICEMAKER MECHANISM WILL FILL
THE MOLD WITH WATER.
4. THE FIRST CUBES MAY BE SMALL BECAUSE OF AIR IN THE WATER LINE.
LATER CUBES WILL BE OF STANDARD CRESCENT TYPE SIZE.
5. APPROXIMATE TIME FOR THE FIRST CYCLE IS BETWEEN 30-40 MINUTES.
6. EACH CYCLE APPROXIMATELY WILL TAKE 5 OZS OF WATER SO YOU SHOULD HAVE A FULL TRAY,
AFTER 11 HOURS.
IMPORTANT: THROW AWAY ALL ICE CUBES MADE DURING THE FIRST 3 HOURS OF OPERATION.
• WHEN THE ICE BUCKET IS FULL, THE ICE MAKING MECHANISM WILLAUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF.
WHEN ICE CUBESARE MELTED, THE ICE MAKING MECHANISM WILL STARTAGAIN .
• ICE DELIVERY MAY BE INTERRUPTED BY RAISING THE METALARM INTOAN UPRIGHT POSITION
• IF THE ICEMAKER IS NOT USED REGULARLY, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE ICE BUCKET BE
EMPTIED PERIODICALLY TO INSURE FRESH ICE.
• SOMETIMES THE CUBES MAYAPPEAR CLOUDY. THIS IS DUE TO THE RAPID FREEZING OF THE ICE
CUBE. THIS IS TRAPPEDAIR IN THE WATER AND DOES NOTAFFECT THE TASTEAND QUALITY OF THE
ICE.
• THE FRONT GRILLE SHOULD BE KEPT FREE OF DUSTAND LINT TO ALLOW FREE AIRFLOW.
IMPORTANT: THIS UNIT SHOULD BE DEFROSTED APPROXIMATELY EVERY 4-6 WEEKS OR WHEN
FROST ON THE ICE MAKER WALLS IS EXCESSIVE OR ¼” THICK. TO DEFROST, TURN THE UNIT
OFF, REMOVE CUBES AND KEEP DOOR OPEN AT LEAST TWO INCHES.
Maintenance
CLEANING YOUR ICE MAKER
• TURN THE SWITCH CONTROL TO "OFF", UNPLUG THE ICE MAKER AND REMOVE THE BUCKET.
• WASH THE INSIDE WITH A WARM WATER AND BAKING SODA SOLUTION. THE SOLUTION SHOULD
BE ABOUT 2 TABLESPOONS OF BAKING SODA TO A QUART OF WATER.
• WASH THE BUCKET WITH A MILD DETERGENT SOLUTION.
• THE OUTSIDE OF THE ICE MAKER SHOULD BE CLEANED WITH MILD DETERGENT AND WARM
WATER.
• THE STAINLESS STEEL COMPONENTS OF
THE DOOR SHOULD BE CLEANED WITH
STAINLESS STEEL CLEANER
•THE CONDENSER COILS SHOULD BE
VACUUMED WHEN THEY ARE DUSTY OR
DIRTY

CAUTION
FAILURE TO UNPLUG THE ICE MAKER WHEN CLEANING, MOVING, OR SERVICING IT COULD
RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY.
POWER FAILURE
MOST POWER FAILURES ARE CORRECTED WITHIN A FEW HOURS AND SHOULD NOT AFFECT THE
TEMPERATURE OF YOUR ICE MAKER IF YOU MINIMIZE THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE DOOR IS
OPENED. IF THE POWER IS GOING TO BE OFF FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME, YOU SHOULD TAKE
THE PROPER STEPS TO DISCONNECT YOUR APPLIANCE.
VACATION TIME/STORAGE
1. SHUT OFF THE WATER SUPPLY AT THE MAIN WATER VALVE.
2. DISCONNECT THE WATER SUPPLY LINE FROM THE VALVE.
3. POUR AWAY THE WATER AND ICE THAT IN THE ICE BUCKET.
4. ALLOW THE UNIT TO RUN FOR AN HOUR OR TWO UNTIL ALL REMAINING ICE CUBES HAVE BEEN
EJECTED AND ALL WATER HAS CYCLED THROUGH THE SYSTEM AND HAS BEEN MADE INTO ICE
CUBES.
5. DISCONNECT THE UNIT FROM THE MAIN POWER SOURCE.
6. DRY OUT EXCESS WATER FROM THE ICE MAKER ASSEMBLY
7. LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN AT LEAST TWO INCHES.
MOVING YOUR ICE MAKER
• SECURELY TAPE DOWN ALL LOOSE ITEMS INSIDE YOUR ICE MAKER.
• TURN THE LEVELING SCREWS UP TO THE BASE (THEIR SHORTEST LENGTH POSSIBLE) TO AVOID
DAMAGE.
• TAPE THE DOOR SHUT.
• MAKE SURE THE ICE MAKER STAYS IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION DURING TRANSPORTATION.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• THE ICE MAKER SHOULD BE LOCATED IN THE COOLEST AREA OF THE ROOM, AWAY FROM HEAT
SOURCES, AND OUT OF THE DIRECT SUNLIGHT.
