Since this is a large and heavy appliance, before trans-
porting the appliance, check the access to the loca-
tion where it will be installed (door size, manoeuvring
space in stairwells, etc.).
The appliance is attached to the base of the packaging
(pallet) through four bolts which can be removed us-
ing a 17 mm (3/4") wrench.
It is recommended to use a manual transporting de-
vice to move the appliance to the installation site, and
only at this point to remove the base of the packaging.
The appliance should always be transported in an
erect position.
If this is not possible, transport the appliance laying
on its rear side.
Once at the installation site, the appliance, which is
equipped with four wheels, can be taken off the pallet
and positioned in the installation area.
Operate as follows:
>
Take off the four boltshsecuring
the pallet by means of a 17 mm (3/4") open spanner.
>
Remove the fixing brackets
>
To remove the front fixing bracket
one or two turns the rear wheel adjusting bolt
means of a 13 mm (1/2") box spanner, avoiding too
much strenght while thightening the nut, which could
damage the leveling feet adjusting system.
>
From the back of the unit and by means of a suit-
able, high duty hand trolley, take off the appliance and
place it on the floor.
Be very careful to avoid any damage to floors. Delicate
floors should be protected with plywood, hard card-
board or similar material panels.

The appliances are delivered from the factory for op-
eration at 110V-120V AC - 60Hz (US and Canada).
They are provided with a suitable supply cable and
plug to be connected to an appropriate 15A socket
(US and Canada) provided with an effective grounding.
A circuit breaker should also be installed and should
be easily accessible so that it can be easily switched
off before performing any installation or maintenance.
To connect to the water supply system (for appliances
equipped with ice makers) a 1/4" waterline with ac-
cessible shut-off valve must be supplied.
The appliance is provided with a water adapter elbow
which is suitable for high water pressure and com-
plies the Food Regulations.
The water filter cartridge, which is provided with the
appliance, should be installed according to the ac-
companying instructions. Use only the new adapter
which is supplied with the appliance. The solenoid
connection on the appliance is 3/4" diameter but is
metric threaded. A standard garden hose threaded
connector such as a braided stainless hose found at
typical hardware stores will strip or damage the sole-
noid threads. Use only the supplied 1/4" quick connect
