ICE MACHINE LOCATION AND
PREPARATION
This ice machine is designed to be used indoors, in a
controlled environment or outdoors within certain limits.
It is made up of two major systems: the ice making
system and the ice storage system. The ice making
system is a continuous flow that makes ice when the ice
level becomes low and stops when it is full.
IMPORTANT: Never keep anything in the ice storage bin
that is not ice. Objects like wine or beer bottles are not
only unsanitary, but the labels can slip off and plug up the
drain.
IMPORTANT: Never allow the machine to operate without
regular cleaning. The machine will last longer if it is kept
clean. Regular cleaning should happen at least once per
year, and preferably twice. Some water conditions will
dictate even more frequent cleaning of the ice making
section, and some carpets or pets will dictate more
frequent cleaning of the condenser

GROUNDING THE ICE MACHINE
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it
is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO CONNECT THE ICE
MACHINE TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS
APPLIANCE.
