5. Water Supply and Drain Connections

WARNING

To prevent damage to the freezer mechanism, do not operate this icemaker
when the water supply is OFF, or if the pressure is below the recommended
minimum water pressure of 10 PSIG (0.7 bar). Stop the icemaker until
proper water pressure is resumed.

* Attach the brass fitting included in the accessory bag as shown in Fig. 5. The brass fitting

size is 1/2" FPT and must be connected only to a potable water supply.

* A water supply line shut-off valve and drain valve must be installed.

* Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG (0.7 bar) and a maximum of 113

PSIG (7.5 bar). If the pressure exceeds 113 PSIG (7.5 bar), use a pressure reducing valve.

* Drain outlet hose is 5/8" (16 mm) ID and internally connected to a 2/3" (17 mm) OD drain

outlet.

* For gravity drain installation, drain must be 1/4" fall per foot (2 cm fall per meter) on horizontal

runs to get good flow.

* Keep a more than 2 vertical inch
(5 vertical cm) air gap between
the drain pipe end and the drain.

* The drain pipe must be so laid as to prevent

a backflow into the storage bin.

* For condensate pump installation for exiting

drain, refer to condensate pump instruction
manual.

* A plumbing permit and services of a licensed

plumber may be required in some areas.

* This icemaker should be installed in

accordance with applicable national, state
and local regulations.
