electrical outlet. 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. The fuse
(or circuit breaker) size should be 20 amperes.

Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. The power supply cord (not
included) must have a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged and grounding-type wall receptacle,
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility of
the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
