IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the ice maker is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described
in this manual, so read the manual carefully. MAXX ICE strongly recommends that you
have a professional install your new machine. The warranty may be affected or voided
by an incorrect installation .To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when
using the ice maker, follow basic precautions, including the following:
•
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding prong, do not use
adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
•
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your ice maker, be provided.
Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
•
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
•
Never unplug the icemaker by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the outlet.
•
Never clean ice maker parts with flammable fluids. Do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The
fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
•
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the
power line of the unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off. (EXCEPTION: When
cleaning the machine’s ice making and water systems - See pages 23-25)
•
Before operating, put all panels back into place.
•
Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the ice maker.
•
Do not touch the evaporator by hand when the machine is operating.
•
Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to
do so can result in electrical shock or death.
•
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your ice maker unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified tech-
nician.
•
Use two or more people to move and install ice maker. Failure to do so can result in
back or other injury.
•
To ensure proper ventilation for your ice maker, the front of the unit must be com-
pletely unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 45°F (7°C)
and below 110° F (43°C).
•
The ice maker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high
heat.
•
The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accor-
dance with state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115VAC, 60Hz, 15A),
properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances is required.
•
Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and cabinet.
•
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
