SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY WHEN USING YOUR ICE MAKER, FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS: Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet; do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only for your ice maker, be provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY WHEN USING YOUR ICE MAKER, FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS: Do not use the apparatus other than for its intended purpose. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Where water is very hard, softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS LEVELLING THE ICE MAKER It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by turning the four feet on the bottom of the machine. We recommend using a carpenter’s level to check the machine. 1. Place a carpenter’s level on top of the product to see if the ice maker is level from front to back and side to side. 2.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION OF YOUR ICE MAKER This ice maker should be installed by a licensed plumber only Locate the ice maker away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.) as it may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the ice maker not to perform properly. Plug the ice maker into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS To ensure proper service access and ventilation, allow at least 4” clearance at rear, and 1” at top and sides. The installation should allow the ice maker to be pulled forward for servicing if necessary. TRANSPORTATION AND LOCATION REQUIREMENTS This icemaker should be installed by a licensed plumber only. Before connecting the ice maker to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Connecting the water line: 1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water. 2. Find a ½” to ¾” vertical cold water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be less than 9 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about 9 feet long. 3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of copper tubing, attach a ¼” O.D.
FLANGE KIT INSTALLATION The flange kit allows seamless installation of the Whynter MIM-14231SS which gives a greater degree of personalized application. This is an optional accessory, sold separately. The flange kit is used for a consistent smooth surface and additional secure fastening by screwing the flange to the cabinet. CAUTION: The flange must not be used for support the weight of the unit. Adjust the feet to level the unit and make the lower edge of flange not touch the ground.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE CAUTION : Failure to unplug the ice maker could result in electrical shock or personal injury CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, or there are other special considerations.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Condenser cleaning WARNING: DO not touch the condenser surface. The surface is sharp and can be easily damaged. A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airflow, reduces ice making capacity, and causes higher than recommended operating temperatures that may lead to component failure. Have the condenser cleaned at least once every six months. 1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power. 2. Remove the 2 screws on the front cover and gently pull it off. 3.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Possible Causes Solutions The machine won't operate. The icemaker is unplugged. The icemaker power switch is OFF. The ice storage bin is full of ice. Plug the ice maker in.
