Water Supply
The water supply should be ready at the point of installation. The water supply pressure should be a
minimum of 15 psig with a static pressure not more than 80 psig. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice
machine will make installation easier.)
IMPORTANT:
1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional
installation is recommended.
2. Make certain the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required: ½-in. open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver
Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.
2. Find a ½-in. to ¾-in. vertical cold water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be
less than 6 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is approximately 6 feet long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of
copper tubing, attach a ¼” O.D. compression union to the tubing and install the valve.
4. Connect the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the water
inlet. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.
5. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten every
connection (including connection at the water inlet).
IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay
attention to the indications of “Water inlet” and “Drain outlet” on the machine.
Drain
You must connect the drain line before using the ice maker. Follow the steps outlined below.
There are two types of ice machine modes, one that drains by gravity and one
that has an internal drain pump.
This unit can pump out water up to a rise of 1.5m (59”) or over a horizontal
length of 1.5m (59”).
