Installing and
connecting the
appliance
Have a technician install and
connect the appliance according
to the installation instructions in
this manual.
After installing the appliance, wait
at least 8 hours before plugging in
the appliance. The oil in the
compressor may have flowed into
the refrigeration system during
transport.
• Clean the interior of the appliance
before operating it for the first time
(see "Cleaning the appliance").
• Always connect the water before
the power.
In addition to statutory national
regulations, compliance with the
connection requirements of local
electricity and water utility
companies is also required.
Do not remove transport protection
devices from the shelves and
storage compartments until after
the appliance has been installed.
Only a customer service technician
should remove the appliance
doors if this is necessary in order
to bring the appliance through any
household doors.
Water connection
Risk of electric shock and damage
to the appliance!
Disconnect the appliance from the
power source before performing
any work on the water connection.
Only a qualified installation
technician may connect the
appliance to the water supply in
accordance with plumbing and
relevant water utility company
regulations.
Connect the appliance to the water
line:
• Minimum pressure:
14.5 psi(1.0 bar)
• Maximum pressure:
116 psi (8.0 bar)
If the water pressure exceeds 80 psi
(5.5 bar), you must install a pressure
limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how
to check your water pressure.. The ice
maker will not work if the water
pressure is below 14.5 psi (1.0 bar).
Install a separate shut-off valve for the
water line.
Do not install the shut-off valve behind
the appliance. The shut-off valve
should be placed directly next to the
appliance or in another easily
accessible location.
The taste and smell of the water can
be improved by installing the filter
cartridge included with the appliance.
In this case, observe the separate
connection requirements related to
the filter (see "Water filter").
The water hose has a
3/4 inch connection.
Electrical connection
en-us
Risk of electric shock and fire if
electrical connection is not
installed properly!
Plug into a fixed, grounded 3-prong
outlet only. The outlet must be
installed and grounded according
to code by a qualified electrician. If
necessary, have the installation
inspected by a qualified technician
to ensure it is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord or
power strip.
Never connect the appliance to an
electronic energy saver plug (such
as Ecoboy, Sava Plug, etc.) or to
power inverters which convert
direct current (DC) to alternating
current (AC) (such as for solar
equipment, power supplies on
ships, etc.).
The outlet for the appliance must be
located close the appliance and must
be easy to access also after
installation.
Connect the appliance to a properly
installed 115 V/60 Hz AC outlet. The
fuse for the outlet must be rated
between 15 A or 20 A.
If the appliance is to be used in a
country other than the U.S., check the
rating plate to determine if the
specified voltage and current type
correspond to the ratings of your
power supply. If the voltage and
current type do not match, the
appliance must not be operated. The
power cord may only be replaced by
a qualified electrician.
