Preparing the Space:
Make sure the opening where the unit will be installed, is
properly prepared for "Cut Out" dimension. Check placement
for electrical outlet and water line. (Fig. 1)
NOTE:
For the door to open properly, it must be able to open at
least 90 degrees. For installation in a corner, a 2" filler strip is
required to ensure the 90 degree opening. The floor under the
refrigerator is to be level with the surrounding floor. To protect
the floor when moving the refrigerator, place cardboard, or
preferably a carpet remnant (backing up) on the floor.
Electrical Connection:
Refer to User Guide for voltage requirements. There should
be a separate, grounded circuit serving this appliance only.
Do not use an extension cord. Do not use any device that will
alter the electrical performance of this appliance. For the
placement of the electrical outlet refer to Fig. 1.
*Do not use a ground fault circuit interupter.
Plumbing Connection:
Rough in the water line for the location (Fig. 1). Connect a
1/4" copper line to the house supply. Use a shut off valve
between the refrigerator and supply. The shut off should be
a drilled saddle valve. Do not use a self-tapping valve. The
icemaker operates on 30 to 120 PSI. Route the water line
within a 1/2" of the wall and no higher than 3" from the floor.
Allow at least 3' of excess copper tubing outside the wall or
floor for easy connection to the water valve. * Prior to
connection assure that the water supply and the copper
tubes have been flushed until the water runs clear.
Reverse Osmosis:
Remove the water inlet connector from
the 'Yellow' valve and attach to the 'Blue' valve. Assure that
the water filter bypass plug is in place (See Fig. 3).
Disconnect wires from Yellow Valve.
