CLR2160/CLRCO2175 Ice Makers
3. Attach the copper water line to the back of the unit 
using the supplied clamp and the back panel screw (see 
Figure 46
, CLR2175 model shown). This will prevent 
rotation of the line when moving the unit.
4. Plug in the unit and put unit into OFF mode by holding 
the power key for 10 seconds. Not doing this will cause 
the unit to fill with water for 3 minutes.
5. Turn on the water supply and ensure the connections 
are free of leaks.
6. Begin to push the appliance into the desired cabinet 
opening. The copper tubing should remain in 2 coils 
behind the unit.
IMPORTANT
Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply 
line contacting cabinet wall may cause excessive noise 
during operation or damage to the line.
7. While pushing the unit into the opening, continuously 
reroute the drain tube to avoid kinks. The most 
common installation pulls the slack into an adjacent 
cabinet or basement area. 
8. If installing a gravity drain, ensure you provide proper 
slope.
9. After unit is in its final position, finish routing drain 
tube to the desired location. Common installations use 
a floor drain, standpipe, garbage disposal, or Y-branch 
tailpiece type drain connection (see 
Figures 42, 43 and 
44
).
10. Check to ensure unit is level both side to side and front 
to back. 
See Leveling Information on Page 20.
IMPORTANT
For the gravity/floor drain or the standpipe be sure to 
secure the drain line to these items to prevent it from 
coming loose and causing water damage.
IMPORTANT
For disposer or Y-branch tailpiece connections press the 
drain tube over the barbed end of the connector and 
secure with a worm clamp. Make sure the knockout inside 
the tailpiece has been removed for both types of 
connections. Depending on the size of the Y-branch or 
disposer fitting, an adapter may be necessary to interface 
between the 5/8” hose and connection.
11. Turn the unit to the on position by holding the power 
key for 10 seconds.
12. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice bin and check all 
connections for leaks. Ensure the water is flowing from 
the bin. If the water does not flow from the bin there 
may be an issue with the drain connection, such as kinks 
or improper slope. If your unit has a drain pump, an 
indicator of P1 on the display will alert you of a slow or 
clogged drain.
13. If any issues are found, retrace the drain connection, 
correct the issue and retest with water.
