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 37, 38 and 
39
).
10. Check to ensure unit is level both side to side and front 
to back. 
See Leveling on Page 14.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
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.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
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.

Electrical Specifications
CAUTION
Electrical installation must observe all state and 
local codes. This unit requires connection to a 
grounded (three-prong), polarized receptacle that 
has been placed by a qualified electrician.
The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 
60 Hz, 15A power supply (normal household current). 
An individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit 
breaker is recommended. GFCI (ground fault circuit 
interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location 
appliances and is not recommended for your unit because 
a GFCI could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be 
sure to consult your local codes.
See Figure 42 for recommended receptacle location. 
Plugging the unit into a receptacle located behind an 
adjacent cabinet will allow the CLRCO2175 to be more 
easily serviced with self-diagnostics without disturbing 
your installation.
