Before you begin Read these instructions completely and carefully. Have the appliance installed by a qualified technician, according to the enclosed installation instructions. To reduce the risk of injury or damage to the product, two people should be used for installation.
Check the installation niche To ensure a safe, trouble-free installation and the best possible cosmetic result, check to be sure that the installation space complies with the installation requirements. ^ Check the base (see "Installation"). ^ Check the dimensions of the cavity.
^ Loosen the bracket that holds the appliance to the pallet. , Caution! The appliance is no longer secured and may be unstable. ^ From the rear of the appliance carefully lift it from the pallet. Once the appliance is on the ground it can be wheeled around.
^ Connect the appliance to the power supply and turn it on. After several seconds the indicator light will come on. The indicator light will display different colors one after the other; any control light at the end indicates that the module was correctly installed.
Anti-tip brackets The anti-tip brackets help keep the appliance safely secured to the installation niche to prevent tipping. Two anti-tip brackets are recommended for each appliance or appliance combination (side-by-side). The distance " D " between the anti-tip brackets b is the width of the appliance.
Securing an alternative anti-tip device If the anti-tip brackets cannot be attached securely, an alternative anti-tip device can be used. Ensure that there is no "give" between the appliance and the anti-tip device. If possible, always screw the wooden beam to existing studs.
Sliding the appliance into the installation niche ^ Unscrew the plinth. ^ To protect the corners of the installation space, attach the supplied edge protector a on both sides with adhesive tape. ^ Plug the appliance into the power outlet b . In the case of side-by-side installations, a separate outlet must be used for each appliance.
Aligning the appliance ^ Align the appliance with the custom front. The installation aids e have been designed for the following total thicknesses of custom doors: – 3 / 4 " (19 mm) –1 1 / 2 " (38 mm) Be sure to take into account the possible differing thicknesses of the custom door that is to be fitted subsequently.
Note: – Do not twist or jam the appliance inside the niche. When unscrewing the height-adjustable feet, proceed gradually, alternating between left and right. – The adjustment of the rear feet is aided if the appliance is lifted at the rear (tipped forward slightly).
For a side-by-side combination the filler strips from both appliances are put together to form one long filler strip: ^ Take the peg from the "side-by-side merging kit" and insert it halfway into the filler strip rail on the left-side appliance.
Preparing the custom door ^ Open the appliance door. ^ Unscrew the installation supports n from the appliance door. ^ Loosen the remaining screws from the strips o on each side of the door, then remove. ^ Set aside the screws and side strips o - you will need them again later.
^ Mark the distance X on the back-side of the custom door. ^ Also calculate and mark the center of the custom door Y . ^ Remove the mounting frame from the appliance door and position it according to the markings on the custom door. ^ Pre-drill the holes.
^ Adjust the custom door to adjacent furniture/fixtures. ^ Align the custom door with the double-threaded bolts. ^ Tighten the nuts on the adjusting rail. This will correct the side alignment of the door. ^ Put the side strips (15) back into place and screw them completely down on both sides of the appliance door.
^ Insert the cover strip into the space between the appliance and the side panel. For side-by-side combinations, the cover strips (on both sides of the appliance) are applied to the outermost spaces only. ^ Attach the light switch cover. Attaching the toe-kick panel The maximum height of the toe-kick panel is 4" from the top of the floor.
Mounting the air separator The air separator on the inside of the freezer door keeps the supply and exhaust air separate. This prevents warm exhaust air from flowing into the machine, optimizing the energy performance of the unit. ^ If necessary, shorten the three parts of the air separator.
Aligning the Ice/Water Dispenser If necessary the depth of the Ice/Water dispenser can be aligned from inside the custom door cut-out. This allows the dispenser to be aligned with the custom door to achieve the best possible appearance. ^ Press the dispenser back and pull downwards to remove.
^ Pull the rear cover forward and out. ^ To remove the drip tray, begin by carefully unclipping the water sensors, then bend them gently upward. Once the drip tray has been removed, the four aligners can be accessed to adjust the Ice/Water Dispenser to your liking.
Attaching the frame and the shelf For 3 / 4 " (19 mm) thick custom doors: ^ Slide the cover frame onto the Ice/Water Dispenser and press until it is flush with the door surface (be sure the word "TOP" on the cover frame is upward). For 1 1 / 2 " / (38 mm) thick custom doors: ^ Press the extension frame onto the cover frame.
All plumbing work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, in accordance with all applicable local and national regulations. The manufacturer is not liable for damage to property due to an incorrect installation or water connection.
Preparing the water connection The connection to the household water supply must be installed before the appliance is installed. ^ Turn off the main water valve to prevent damage caused by leaking water.
Connecting the water supply When connecting the water pipe to the solenoid valve of the appliance, follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the ice cube maker installation kit. When bending the water pipe, be sure not to kink it, otherwise there is a risk of leaks and water damage.
, Avoid the risk of electrical shock - Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. - Do not move the ground plug. - Do not use an adapter. - Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor may result in electric shock.
