A. Recommended location for electrical
and plumbing fixtures
B. Floor level
Choose a location where the floor is even. It is important for
the ice maker to be level in order to work properly. If needed,
you can adjust the height of the ice maker by changing the
height of the leveling legs. See "Leveling."
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your ice maker into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection:
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply,
properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice
maker, be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off
by a switch or pull chain.
IMPORTANT: If this product is connected to a GFCI (Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter) equipped outlet, nuisance tripping of the
power supply may occur, resulting in loss of cooling. Ice quality
may be affected. If nuisance tripping has occurred, and if the
condition of the ice appears poor, dispose of it.
Recommended grounding method
This appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped
with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug. The
cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type
wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall
receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the
customer to have a properly grounded, 3 prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician.
