  2.  It is necessary to have adequate ventilation space around the ice maker in order to sustain proper performance, dissipation of heat, maintain efficiency, and low power consumption. Clearance of a minimum of 5 inches should be maintained at the rear and sides of the unit and 8 inches at the top of the unit.
  3. To attain proper performance, be sure to plug the appliance into a properly grounded 115/60 Hz outlet.
  4. Do not modify the power cord under any circumstances to allow the unit to be plugged into a non-grounded outlet. To avoid heat damage to the power cord, please ensure that it does not come in proximity or in direct contact with the compressor of the ice maker.
  5. Please avoid installing the ice maker in a location where the appliance will come in contact with water or moisture to minimize rusting of metal parts.
