Diamond ICE32A, Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

5.2 POSITIONING 

‼

The appliance must be installed in a hygienically clean location; it is advisable to avoid 

rooms like cellars and store-rooms, because failure to meet hygiene requirements is likely to 
lead to the formation and proliferation of bacteria in the appliance. 

The appliance can operate at an ambient temperature of between 10°C and 43°C. 

The best performance will be obtained by installing the appliance in a place with an ambient 
temperature of between 10°C and 35°C and a water temperature of between 3°C and 25°C. 

Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and do not install near heat sources. 

‼

This appliance: 

•

must be installed in a place where it can be supervised by skilled personnel

• must not be used outdoors
• must not be installed in damp places or where it is liable to be sprayed with water
• must not be cleaned with jets of water
• must be positioned at a distance of at least 5 cm from the side walls 

(this does not apply to the

flush-mounting models)

5.2.a POSITIONING FOR FLUSH-MOUNTING MODELS 

Ventilation is ensured by the grille on the front panel; it is therefore not necessary to leave any gap, 
except to facilitate installation. 
A hole must be made in the surface where the appliance is to be located so that the power cable, 
water supply pipe and the water drain pipe can be passed through as shown in Fig. 5. 
The plug and water supply and drain connections are accessible from the front panel. 
To access these, disconnect the appliance from the power supply, unscrew the screws that hold the 
front panel in place and after opening the door, pull out the panel from above (Fig. 6). 

Before fitting the appliance in place, the power cable must be fixed to the base plate as shown in 
the diagram in

Fig. 6: 

• pass the plug and cable (11) through the hole (12) in the plate
• position the cable clamp (13) in its housing

Fit the front panel back in place after making these connections.

5.3 CONNECTION TO THE WATER MAINS 

‼

 IMPORTANT: 

•

the appliance must be connected to the water mains by professionally qualified personnel in
accordance with the Manufacturer’s instructions 

•

this appliance must be only be supplied with cold water for human consumption (drinking water)

•

the operating pressure must be between 0.1 and 0.6 MPa

•

a tap must be installed between the water mains and the feed pipe of the appliance, so that the
water supply may be shut off if necessary

•

where the feed water is particularly hard, you are advised to install a softener. Any solid particles
(e.g. sand) may be eliminated by installing a mechanical filter, which must be periodically inspected
and cleaned. These devices must comply with the standards in force in the Country of use

•

never turn the water supply tap off when the appliance is working

5.3.a FILLING WITH WATER (Fig. 7)

Insert the special seals provided (15) in the two threaded ring nuts (14) of the water supply pipe (9)
supplied with the appliance.
Without exerting excessive force (otherwise the unions could crack), firmly tighten one of the
threaded ring nuts on the outlet of the solenoid valve located in the rear of the appliance 

(front for

the flush-mounting models)

. The other threaded ring nut must be screwed to the water tap (8);

this too must be provided with a thread.
