Connecting the drain
Gravity drain system
Connect the ice maker drain to your drain in accordance with all
state and local codes and ordinances. If the ice maker is
provided with a gravity drain system, follow these guidelines
when installing drain lines. This will prevent water from flowing
back into the ice maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto
the floor causing water damage.
Drain lines must have a minimum of ⁵⁄₈ in. (15.88 mm) inside
diameter.
Drain lines must have a 1 in. drop per 48 in. (25.40 mm drop
per 122 cm) of run or ¹⁄₄ in. drop per 12 in. (6.3 5 mm per
3 0.48 cm) and must not have low points where water can
settle.
The floor drains must be large enough to accommodate
drainage from all drains.
The ideal installation has a 1¹⁄₂ in. (3 .81 cm) standpipe
installed directly below the outlet of the drain tube as shown.
You must maintain a 1 in. (25.40 mm) air gap between the
drain pump hose and the standpipe.
It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly up to
the drain inlet.
After ensuring that the drain system is adequate, follow these
steps to properly place the ice maker:
1. Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
2. Re-check the ice maker to be sure that it is level. See the
"Leveling the Ice Maker" section.
3. Push the ice maker into position so that the ice maker drain
tube is positioned over the standpipe.

4. If it is required by your local sanitation code, seal the cabinet
to the floor with an approved caulking compound after all
water and electrical connections have been made.

Connect the drain pump hose (provided with the product) to your
drain in accordance with all state and local codes and
ordinances.

Understanding Sounds You May Hear
Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar to
you. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be
concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces like the floor, walls and cabinets can make the sounds
seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the
kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be
making them.
You will hear a buzzing sound when the water valve opens to
fill the water reservoir for each cycle.
Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or
the water line. Items stored on top of the ice maker can also
make noises.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high
pitched sound.
Water running over the evaporator plate may make a
splashing sound.
Water running from the evaporator plate to the water reservoir
may make a splashing sound.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your ice maker.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
During the harvest cycle, you may hear a "thud" when the ice
sheet slides from the evaporator onto the cutter grid.
When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water
running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a
rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
USING YOUR
ICE MAKER
Understanding How Your Ice Maker
When you first start your ice maker, the water pan will fill and the
system will rinse itself before starting to make ice. The rinsing
process takes about five minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the ice maker will cycle at
preset temperatures. The ice level sensor located in the ice
storage bin will monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT:
If the water supply to the ice maker is turned off, be sure to
set the ice maker control to OFF.
The ice maker is designed to make clear ice from the majority
of water sources on a daily basis. If your results are
unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or treated.
