Cleaning Before Use
After you remove all of the packaging
materials, clean the
inside of your ice maker before using it. See the cleaning
instructions in the "Ice Maker Care" section.

may be
closed-in

should
allow
the ice maker
to be pulled
forward
for
servicing
if necessary.

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
The ice maker must be grounded. The ice maker 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.
