Boss Figure 29 www.U-LineService.com 12 02/2005 TM BI2015 -- Ice Maker 6 Prepare Plumbing CAUTION Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water connections MUST BE made by a licensed/ qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm. 2. Locate the compression fitting and ferrule packed with the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4-inch OD water supply line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line (see Figure 31). 3. Carefully bend the water supply line into position and connect the line to the solenoid valve (see Figure 32). Avoid kinking the water supply line. WARNING To prevent accidental electrocution, make certain that the floor surfaces surrounding the unit are dry whenever power is removed from, or applied to, the unit. Water Supply Connection Figure 32 When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines: · Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit. · Connect to the cold water supply. · The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi. · Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch OD water supply line. · Connect sufficient tubing to the unit so that tubing may be looped, allowing the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing (see Figure 32). However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation. · U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation. To connect to water supply: 1. Install the 1/4 inch OD copper water line from the main water source (see Figure 30). IMPORTANT Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply line contacting cabinet wall may cause excessive noise during operation or damage to the line. 4. For recessed installations, allow extra water supply line length to provide slack for easy removal from the recessed area (see Figure 32). This will also safeguard against kinking the line. 5. Go on to 7 Prepare Power Supply. Water Connection Figure 30 Figure 31 02/2005 13 www.U-LineService.com BI2015 -- Ice Maker TM 7 Prepare Power Supply 8 Level the Unit Electrical Specifications CAUTION Electrical installation must observe all state and local codes. This unit requires connection to a grounded (threeprong), 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 33 for recommended receptacle location. Leveling Information IMPORTANT It is extremely important that the unit is level. If it is not level, the ice mold will not fill evenly. 1. Use a level to check the levelness of the ice maker from front to back and from side to side. Level should be placed along top edge and side edge as shown (see Figure 34). Check Level Figure 34 2. If the ice maker is not level, adjust the feet on the corners of the unit as necessary (see Figure 35). 23-11/16" 7" 1" Figure 33 Figure 35 Turn Foot to Adjust WARNING SHOCK HAZARD -- Electrical Grounding Required. · Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug and never use a two-prong grounding adapter. · Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit. Go on to 8 Level the Unit. 3. Check the levelness after each adjustment and repeat the previous steps until the unit is level. Go on to 9 Install the Unit. Installation Tip If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cut-out opening, adjust the rear feet to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8" less than the opening's rear height. Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front feet. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the opening. Readjust the front feet to level the unit after it is correctly positioned in the opening. www.U-LineService.com 14 02/2005 TM BI2015 -- Ice Maker 9 Install the Unit 10 Start-Up for the First Time Installation of the BI2015 1.

Be careful not to kink the water supply line or entangle the electrical cord. 5. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit's top surface should be approximately 1/8" below the countertop. Initial Start-Up Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit is ready for initial start-up and operation. The ON/OFF switch is located in the front grille (see Figure 36). Temperature Control Knob OFF ON 4 3 5 2 6 OFF ON 1 WARMER 7 COLDER Installation Troubleshooting ON/OFF Switch Figure 36 1. Put the ON/OFF switch in the ON position, and set the Temperature Control Knob at 4. 2. As soon as the ice maker mold reaches the proper temperature, the ice maker mechanism will fill the mold with water. Note: The first cubes may be small because of air in the water line. Subsequent cubes will be standard size. Figure 37 Q: Problem Water is leaking under the unit. A: Solution A water leak under the unit is most likely caused by a bad connection in the water supply line. Make sure the water line's brass fitting is screwed tight to its valve and threaded correctly. Q: Problem The door remains open unless it is pushed closed. A: Solution The hinges should be self-closing when the door is open approximately 8". If this is not the case, make sure the closers (at the bottom of the hinge pin) are clean, greased and installed correctly. Also, re-check leveling from front to back of the unit and readjust if necessary. Make sure that pivot plate is installed correctly. 3. The ice maker will continue to produce until the bin is full. You may interrupt production by raising the bin arm into an upright and locked position (see Figure 37). While the bin arm is locked, the unit will maintain temperature for ice storage.
