ELECTRICAL
Do not remove
ground prong
!WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
They can be hazardous and can degrade product
performance.
• This appliance should not, under any
• circumstances, be installed to an un-grounded
• electrical supply. Do not remove the grounding
prong from the power cord.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the
appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock,
which may result in severe injury or death.
Electrical Connection
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply
cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and
applicable local codes and ordinances. If the circuit does
not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power
supply. The third-ground prong should not, under any
circumstances, be cut or removed.
NOTE
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to
nuisance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut
down. GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power
equipment that must run unattended for long periods of
time, unles required to meet local building codes and
ordinances.

If necessary, to gain clearance inside the rough-in
opening, a hole can be cut through the adjacent
cabinet and the power cord routed through this hole to
a power outlet. Another way to increase the available
opening depth is to recess the power outlet into the
rear wall to gain the thickness of the power cord plug.
Not all recessed outlet boxes will work for this applica-
tion as they are too narrow, but a recessed outlet box
equivalent to Arlington #DVFR1W is recommended for
this application.

adjusted height of the cabinet.
A grounded 15 amp dedicated circuit is required. Follow all
local building codes when installing electrical and
appliance. 8

Side-by-Side Installation
Two units may be installed side-by-side.
Cutout width for a side-by-side installation is the cutout
dimension of a single unit times two.
No trim kit is required. However, 1/4" (6 mm) of space
needs to be maintained between the units to ensure
unobstructed door swing.
Units must operate from separate, properly grounded
electrical receptacles placed according to each unit’s
electrical specifications requirements.
Side-by-Side Installation with Bracket
1. Slide both units out so screws on top of units are easily
accessible.
2. Remove screws as shown below.
3. Place bracket over holes and attach to unit with two
screws removed in step 2 using a T-25 Torx driver.
Tighten screws fully.
4. Gently push units into position. Be careful not to
entangle the electrical cord or water line, if applicable.
5. 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" (3 mm) below
the countertop.

INSTALLING THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE
Anti-Tip Bracket
1. Slide unit out so screws on top of unit are easily
accessible.
2. Remove the two screws from the opposite side of the
hinge assembly using a T-25 Torx driver (see below).

Ice Cube Thickness Adjustment
Interval - As Required.
On ice maker equipped models, adjust the cube size
by changing water amount injected into the ice maker
assembly as follows:
1. Remove the ice maker assembly
cover (1).
2. Find the adjusting screw on the ice
maker assembly control box (2).
The adjusting screw is just below
the minus (-) and plus (+) signs on
the control box.
Too large of an adjustment to the screw can cause the
ZDWHUWRRYHUÀRZWKHLFHPDNHUDQGFDQFDXVHSURSHUW\
damage.
3. Turn the adjusting screw toward the minus (-) sign
(clockwise) for smaller cubes or toward the plus (+)
sign (counterclockwise) for larger cubes.
4. Install the ice maker assembly cover.
Adjusting Ice Harvest
1. Remove the front grille.
 8VLQJDÀDWWLSVFUHZGULYHUWXUQWKHDGMXVWLQJVFUHZ
a small increment clockwise for a COLDER setting (slower
ice production) or counterclockwise for a WARMER setting
(faster ice production).
3. Reinstall the front grille (two
screws).
Ice Maker Operation
When the ice bucket is full, the ice making mechanism will
VKXWRႇ+RZHYHUWKHUHIULJHUDWLRQV\VWHPZLOOFRQWLQXHWR
cool and maintain the ice supply.
Do not place cans or bottles in the ice
compartment because they will freeze.
7RWXUQRႇLFHSURGXFWLRQ
Raise the bin arm into an upright and
locked position. The unit will preserve
temperature for ice storage.
If not intending to use the ice maker, turn the water supply
YDOYHRႇ,WLVDOVRLPSRUWDQWWRUDLVHWKHELQDUPRIWKHLFH
maker (see above). Failure to raise the bin arm may result
in damage to the water valve.
Certain sounds are normal during the unit’s operation. You
may hear the compressor or fan motor, the water valve, or
ice dropping into the ice bucket.
NEVER use an ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to
separate cubes. Shake the ice bucket instead.
During periods of limited use or high ambient temperatures,
it is common for cubes to fuse together. Gently shake the
bucket to break apart cubes. If not using the ice maker
regularly, empty the ice bucket periodically to ensure fresh
cubes. It is normal for cubes to appear cloudy. The cause
is air trapped in the water because of fast freezing. It is not
caused by the health, taste or chemical make up of the
water. It is the same air that is in every glass of water you
drink. Remove the ice bucket for emptying and cleaning. To
remove the ice bucket, raise the bin arm and remove the
bucket from the ice compartment. Use the ice bucket for ice
storage only.
