Connecting the Drain After ensuring that the drain system is adequate, follow these steps to properly place the ice maker: WARNING Excessive Weight Hazard Use two or more people to move and install ice maker. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury. 1. Style 1-For a gravity drain system, be sure that the ice maker drain tube is positioned over the PVC drain reducer. See the "Gravity Drain System" section. Style 2-For a drain pump system, connect the drain pump outlet hose to the drain. Refer the "Drain Supply Requirements" section. NOTE: Do not connect outlet end of drain tube to a closed pipe system to avoid drain water from backing up into the ice maker. WARNING Auxiliary Grill Installation The auxiliary grill is an optional part that can be used to align the toe grill with the rest of the cabinets (while not obstructing ventilation of the ice maker). Tools required: ■■ Torx T20 screwdriver ■■ 1/8" straight drill bit and power drill 1. First, complete all installation steps and install leveled ice maker into the cabinet. Ensure ice maker is flush with the adjacent cabinets. 2. Unpack kit by removing outer cushion packaging and discard packaging material. 3. Remove screws that are taped onto the inside of the auxiliary grill. 4. Place grill onto cabinetry. Align part so that grating pattern on the auxiliary grill matches that of the toe grill on the ice maker. 5. Center auxiliary grill on cut out for ice maker. Mark hole locations on each side of auxiliary grill on cabinet. Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. 2. Plug in ice maker or reconnect power. 3. Turn on ice maker. Wait for rinsing cycle, approximately 5 minutes, to be sure the ice maker is operating properly. 4. If it is required by your local sanitation code, seal the cabinet to the floor with an approved caulking compound after all water and electrical connections have been made. 6. Using power drill and a 1/8" drill bit, drill holes in cabinet. This is to fit screws of size 8-18 x 0.750. 7. Using the Torx T20 screwdriver, screw auxiliary grill into cabinet. NOTE: For future service of ice maker, auxiliary kit must be removed prior to the removal of the ice maker from the cabinets. 16
