INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
To ensure no part of the installation process has been overlooked, complete the checklist below.
Has an authorized True dealer or licensed installer inspected stainless steel surfaces
for imperfection?
(Cosmetic defects are covered by a limited 30-day warranty)
Have all packaging materials been removed?
Is the unit properly leveled with all leveling legs contacting the floor?
Has the water filter been installed? Has the water supply been turned on?
Have the water supply and drain connections been made?
Is the water supply temperature always between 40-100˚F (4.4-7.8˚C)?
Has the ice machine drain line been routed into an open drain with no more than 84"
(2,133.36 mm) vertical rise for 3/8" O.D. tubing and no more than 100’ (30.48 m) run?
Has the water supply been turned on?
Is the power cord plugged into a properly grounded three-prong outlet in accordance with all
applicable electrical codes?
Have all connections been checked for water leaks? If not, pour water directly into the ice
storage bin to ensure drain pump operation and inspect for leaks.
Were the ice maker and storage bin disinfected prior to use? If not, see “Sanitizing" (page 67).
Has the ice machine been turned on? During the initial fill, can you hear the water valve turn
on and see water filling the reservoir tank?
After the first ice cycle, did all 24 ice cubes fall into the bin during harvest?
Have the first two batches of ice been discarded?
Has the customer reviewed the unit’s operation in this manual?

BASIC SAFETY & WARNING
PRECAUTIONS
• Take care during operation, maintenance or repairs
to avoid cuts or pinching from any part/component
of the cabinet.
• Units may pose a tipping hazard while uncrating,
during installation, or when moving the unit.
• Ensure the unit is properly installed and located in
accordance with the Installation Instructions before
use.
• This appliance is not to be used, cleaned or
maintained by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction.
• DO NOT allow children to play with the appliance
or climb, stand, or hang on the unit’s shelves to
prevent damage to the refrigerator and personal
injury.
• DO NOT touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet. Skin
may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.
• Unplug the ice maker before cleaning and making
repairs.
• Powering off the ice maker will not remove power
from all components (e.g., light circuit and drain
pump).
• DO NOT store or use gasoline, or other flammable
vapors and liquids, in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
• DO NOT store explosive substances such as aerosol
cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
• Keep fingers out of the "pinch point" areas;
clearances between the doors and cabinet are
necessarily small; be careful closing doors when
children are in the area.
• DO NOT use electrical appliances inside the food
storage compartments of the units unless the
appliances are of the type recommended by the
manufacturer.
NOTE: ALL SERVICING MUST BE
PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN.
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE CABINET

ANTI-SWEAT FOAM END PANELS
When installing two or more True units side-by-side,
be sure to leave at least a 5/8" (15.88 mm) gap
between the cabinets, or install foam pads between
the cabinets and on any side without this gap, to
prevent moisture from developing on applications.
If installing anti-sweat foam end panels, True
recommends applying a panel to each of the
units being joined together. To order foam pads,
contact our parts department at 844-849-6226 or
