LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Installation must comply with all governing
codes and ordinances.
TEMPERATURE
It is recommended that you install the
ice maker in a well-ventilated area with
temperatures above 55°F (13°C) and below 110°F
(43°C). Best results are obtained between 70°F
and 90°F (21ºC and 32°C).
LOCATION
The ice maker must be installed in an area
sheltered from the elements, such as wind, rain,
or water spray.
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice
maker, the front side must be completely
unobstructed. The ice maker may be closed
in on the top and three sides, however the
installation should allow the ice maker to be
pulled forward for servicing if necessary.
The auxiliary grill kit provided can be used to
align the toe grill with the rest of the cabinets
while not obstructing ventilation of the ice
maker.
Floor must be able to support the ice maker's
total weight, of more than 106 lbs (48.08 kg),
including door panels and contents of the
ice maker. 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.
Check that the power supply cord, water supply
line, and drain line (on some models) are not
damaged, pinched, or kinked between the ice
maker and the cabinet.
