WARNING
The appliance should be destined only to the use for which it has been expressly
conceived. Any other use should be considered improper and therefore dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for injury or damage resulting
from improper, incorrect, and unreasonable use. Failure to install, operate, and
maintain the appliance in accordance with this manual will adversely affect safety,
performance, component life, and warranty coverage and may result in costly water
damage.
To reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire, follow basic
precautions including the following:
• Only qualified service technicians should install and service the appliance.
• The appliance must be installed in accordance with applicable national, state, and
local codes and regulations.
• This icemaker requires an independent power supply of proper capacity. See the
nameplate for electrical specifications. Failure to use an independent power supply
of proper capacity can result in a tripped breaker, blown fuse, damage to existing
wiring, or component failure. This could lead to heat generation or fire.

THIS ICEMAKER MUST BE GROUNDED:
This icemaker is equipped with a
NEMA 5-15 three-prong grounding plug to reduce the risk of potential shock
hazards. It must be plugged into a properly grounded, independent 3-prong wall
outlet. If the outlet is a 2-prong outlet, it is your personal responsibility to have a
qualified electrician replace it with a properly grounded, independent 3-prong wall
outlet. Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord and do not use an
adapter plug.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, make sure the control switch is in the "OFF"
position before plugging in or unplugging the icemaker.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the control switch or plug with
damp hands.
• Do not use an icemaker with a damaged power cord. The power cord should not be
altered, jerked, bundled, weighed down, pinched, or tangled. Such actions could
result in electric shock or fire. To unplug the icemaker, be sure to pull the plug, not
the cord, and do not jerk the cord.
• Do not make any alterations to the icemaker. Alterations could result in electric
shock, injury, fire, or damage to the icemaker.
