Connecting the power
The appliance comes with a 3-wire power supply cord,
UL listed in the USA.
The appliance requires a 3-wire receptacle.
The receptacle must be installed by a licensed electrician
only.
The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.
Please observe in this coherence the following table:
Orient ground prong to the bottom as shown in the pictures.
For the installation position of the receptacle see “Installation

such cases, the required accessory ground wire, clamp and
screw must be purchased separately.
Never ground the appliance to plastic plumbing lines, gas

Grounding instruction
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the
electric current.
Connecting the water
A cold water connection is required for operation of the
automatic ice maker. The water pressure must be between
25 and 120 p.s.i. (1.72–8.25 bar). The installation must
comply with local plumbing regulations.
A separate shut-off valve must be installed for the appliance
water connection.
The shut-off valve for the water connection must not be
behind the appliance. It is recommended to place the shut-
off valve directly next to the appliance (base unit) or in another
easily accessible location.
When installing the water connection, observe the permitted
installation areas for the pipe. For the permitted installation
areas and dimensions see “Installation dimensions”.
The supply pipe can be located at the side on the right (a), at the
side on the left (b) or underneath (c).
Maximum outer diameter of
the water pipe (without fittings):
13
/
