Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your ice maker. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, level surface with adequate ventilation.

1. Placement

• Position the ice maker in a location that allows for proper air circulation around the unit.
• Avoid direct sunlight or proximity to heat sources.
• Ensure the unit is level to facilitate proper water drainage and ice production.

2. Water Connection

Connect the water inlet hose to a potable water supply. It is recommended to use the included water filter for improved ice quality and machine longevity.

1. Locate the water intake port at the rear of the unit.
2. Connect one end of the water inlet hose to the water intake port.
3. Connect the other end of the water inlet hose to your water supply. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.

3. Drainage Connection

The ice maker requires a drainage system to remove melted ice water and water from the self-cleaning cycle.

1. Locate the water outlet (drain) port at the rear of the unit.
2. Connect the drain hose to the water outlet port.
3. Route the drain hose to a suitable drain, ensuring it has a continuous downward slope to allow for gravity drainage. Avoid kinks or obstructions in the hose.
