INSTALLATION CAUTION: Read all instructions before installing INSTALLATION LOCATION The ice maker should be installed in a proper location meeting the following conditions: • Indoors, not more than 6,560 ft (2,000 meters) above sea level. • Ambient temperature: 40° - 104°F (5-40°C). For optimal ice making performance, unit should be operated in an ambient temperature of 60°- 80°F (16°C - 27°C). • Properly installed and grounded power supply that matches the rated voltage indicated on the machine nameplate. • Water source: potable water, with water pressure from 1.3 Bar to 5.5 Bar; water temperature: 40° - 95°F (5-35°C). For optimal ice making performance, operate with water temperature between 45°F - 55°F (7°C - 13°C) • The ice machine should be kept away from heat sources, and should not be used in an extremely high or low temperature environment, and away from direct sunlight. For optimal ice making performance, operate with water temperatures between 45°F - 55°F • There should be sufficient space around the unit for ventilation. The distance from the ice maker to the wall should be no less than 12 in. (30 cm) for the front, 6 in. (15cm) for the sides, and 8in. (20 cm) for the rear. • The ice machine must be placed on a floor sufficient to support its weight when filled with water or ice. • The electrical outlet for the ice maker must be properly grounded and with leakage protection; • Proper floor drainage must be provided near the installation location of the ice machine. ELECTRICAL SUPPLY ALWAYS make sure that the unit is plugged into a properly installed and grounded dedicated outlet that meets the requirements listed on the ratings label and that has appropriate overcurrent protection. Voltage that is too high or too low can detrimentally affect the operation of, or damage, the unit. DO NOT modify or cut the power cord, or use any other plug or an extension cord.
