Aligning the appliance г WARNING To ensure that the appliance functions correctly, it must be set level with a spirit level. If the appliance is not level, water may flow out of the ice maker, ice cubes may be irregular or the doors may not close properly. Never connect the appliance to electronic energy saver plugs. Our appliances can be used with mains and sine-controlled inverters. Mains- controlled inverters are used for photovoltaic systems which are connected directly to the national grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be used for isolated applications (e.g. on ships or in mountain lodges) which are not connected directly to the national grid.
Electrical connection г WARNING Avoid the risk of an electric shock! Insert into a grounded 3-phase socket. Never remove grounding phase. Do not use any adapters. Do not use any extension cables. Non-compliance with these instructions may result in death, fire or an electric shock. Improper connection of the protective conductor may result in an electric shock. If you are in doubt whether the appliance has been grounded properly, have the appliance tested by a qualified electrician or service technician. The socket must be near the appliance and also freely accessible following installation of the appliance. The appliance complies with protection class I.
Connect the appliance to 115 V/60 Hz alternating current via a correctly installed socket with protective conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse. Water connection г CAUTION Connect the appliance to a drinking water line. The water may be connected only by a competent fitter according to the local regulations of the appropriate water supply company. A cold water connection is necessary for operating the automatic ice maker. The water pressure must be between 25 and 120 p.s.i. (1,72 and 8,25 bar). The installation must correspond to the local plumbing regulations. A separate shut-off valve should be installed in the cold- water inflow.
The shut-off valve should not be located behind the appliance. It is recommended that you mount the shut-off valve directly next to the appliance or at another place which is easily accessible. When installing the water connection, pay attention to the permissible installation area for the water mains. The appliance comes with a UL registered 3-wire power cord. The appliance requires a 3-pole socket. Please observe the following table with regard to this: Appliance Maximum simultaneous load For connection to the drinking water mains use only water pipes which are suitable for drinking water. Observe national regulations and the connection conditions of the local water supply companies.
