PRE-INSTALLATION

Floor under product MUST be at or above the same level as the surrounding FINISHED floor, for ease of installa-
tion and removal.
Electrical: Provide 115 Volt, 60 Cycle, Single Phase, 15 Amp, AC Receptacle. It is recommended that a separate
circuit, serving only this appliance, be provided. *Two (2) units side-by-side require separate circuits, except the
60SS and 72SS (see Instruction Sheet 34361-000). Electrical opening should be placed 78 1/2 inches minimum
from the floor.
Plumbing: Ice maker water supply line (1/4 inch OD copper tubing) to come up the rear of cut-out opening ap-
proximately 78 inches off the floor depending on height adjustment. Tubing should then pass around the right side
of the module and around the front to the solenoid valve (see Installation Instructions provided with the unit).

Electrical Connection
The module comes with a 3-prong power suppply
cord. It must be plugged into a mating 115 volt, 60
Hz, 15 amp separately fused, 3-prong grounded
outlet serving only this product, and wired in accor-
dance with National and Local Electrical Codes and
ordinances. A time delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
OR ADAPTER PLUG.
DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUND PRONG FROM
THE POWER SUPPLY CORD UNDER ANY CIRCUM-
STANCES!
If voltage varies by 10 percent or more, performance
of your refrigerator/freezer may be affected. Operat-
ing the refrigerator/freezer with insufficient voltage can
damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered
under your warranty. If you suspect your voltage is
high or low, consult your power company for testing.
Do NOT pinch, knot, or bend the power cord in any
manner.
NEVER unplug the refrigerator/freezer by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull
straight out from the receptacle. To avoid electrical
shock, unplug the refrigerator/freezer before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb.
NOTE: Turning the control to “OFF” turns off the
compressor, but does not disconnect power to the light
bulb or other electrical components. The unit MUST
be unplugged or turned off at the circuit breaker.
INSTALLATION
3
Select Location
Locate the refrigerator/freezer in the coolest part of the
room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating
ducts or registers.
Do not place the refrigerator/freezer next to heat-
producing appliances such as a range, oven or dish-
washer. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry
or an added layer of insulation between the two (2)
appliances will help the refrigerator/freezer operate
more efficiently.
IMPORTANT
When installing the water line for the ice maker, be
sure to install a SHUT-OFF VALVE at a convenient loca-
tion between the refrigerator and the supply line.
Required water pressure range is 20 to 120 psi.
Also required is an in-line WATER FILTER between the
refrigerator and the supply line to prevent sediment
from blocking water flow through the water solenoid
valve.
NOTE: Self-piercing water valves and plastic tubing
are NOT approved for water supply to ice maker.

Installing Two Units Side-By-Side
When two (2) units are installed together, a 23 1/2
inch x 12 inch (minimum) divider panel needs to be
installed between the two (2) modules (refer to Illustra-
tion) with self-tapping screws. The divider panel can
be made of any material available, (i.e. 1/32 inch
aluminum, 1/8 - 1/4 inch wood paneling), or you can
order Kit # 34747-000 from the Northland Service
Department. Locate the divider panel approximately
one (1) inch down from the top of the cabinet and
flush with the back of the cabinet. Drill three (3) pilot
holes approximately 1/2 inch up from the bottom of
divider panel, through panel, and into cabinet. Secure
the panel to the cabinet with three (3) screws using
pilot holes previously drilled.

PANEL READY UNITS: For corner installations, a
minimum one (1) inch filler must be used as shown

LEVELING THE UNIT
5
This unit is equipped with front and rear rollers. Rollers will aid during installation. Rear rollers are adjustable from
the front of the unit. Total adjustment is + 5/16, - 5/16. Turn adjusting bolt clockwise to raise cabinet and coun-
terclockwise to lower cabinet. Front leveling legs must be adjusted to the floor for leveling and to prevent the unit
from rolling during use.
Rear Roller Adjustment Bolt
Front leveling leg.
Use 1/4” wrench
to adjust height of
leveling legs.

Before placing the cabinet in opening, the depth of the
cut-out opening should be at least 24 inches. If the
cut-out opening depth is more than 24 inches, then
a piece of wood must be secured crosswise on the
wall into the studs at the height of the anti-tip bracket.
Slide the cabinet into position and level the cabinet
with adjustable rear roller and front leveling legs. Lo-
cate and mark a center stud in the back of the cut-out
opening for the L-shaped anti-tip bracket- (the bracket
should fit tight to the top of the cabinet). Install at least
two screws through the bracket into the stud located
in the wall behind the cabinet. The front leveling legs
also prevent the unit from rolling during use. Check fit
of toe kick and grille.
IMPORTANT
Drill and screw through the side trim into adjoining
cabinets and/or walls for additional support.
IMPORTANT
Recheck cabinet installation for:
Proper space left for grille installation.•
Cabinet levelness.•
Door opening and closing appearance.•
SAFETY...To prevent unit from tipping forward:•
-Are screws installed securely through front trim
into adjoining cabinetry and/or walls?
-Is anti-tip mounting bracket secured to wall
studs?
After above checks have been made, proceed
with refrigeration installation.

INSTALLING THE MODULE
CAUTION
Module NOT fastened to cabinet below. Remove
before tipping or transporting.
Place module on top of the cabinet with rear shoulder screws resting on the locator brackets behind the front slots.
Slide module toward the rear of the cabinet until the rear shoulder screws engage the slots in the rear of the brack-
ets. Rest the front shoulder screws into the front slots of the brackets.
IMPORTANT
Check to make sure wiring and ice maker tubing is clear and not interfering with module seal. Do NOT start prod-
uct during construction, as dust can block module condenser coils. If dust accumulates on coils, vacuum immedi-
ately, using a soft brush attachment.
Do NOT operate the refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
Do NOT install the refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 60 degrees F (15 degrees C) or rise above
110 degrees F (43 degrees C). The compressor will NOT be able to maintain proper temperatures.
Make electrical connections from the top
of the lower cabinet to the junction box
at left side of module. If NO ice maker
then only one cabinet line will be pro-
tuding. With ice maker, be sure to plug
the ice maker line into the module, and
the solenoid valve as well. See module
diagram on the right.

CUSTOM DOOR PANELS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The NORTHLAND Panel Ready Built-In design allows you to insert decorative material on the doors of your refrig-
erator/freezer. If a panel thinner than 1/4 inch is being used, we recommend a filler be inserted behind it for a
proper fit, as frames are designed to accept up to a 1/4 inch of material. If a raised panel is used, route edges to
fit the frame.
CAUTION
Door panels MUST NOT exceed 50 lbs. Do NOT use glass, mirrors, granite or similar heavy materials for panels.
Panels weighing more than 50 lbs. may cause product damage. We recommend that the door load (panel and
food) NOT exceed 90 lbs.
