Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer: Take off the doors, leave shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside. ! · Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected. · Altering, cutting of power cord, removal of power cord, removal of power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire and/or loss of property and/or life and will void the warranty. ! · Do not lift unit by door handle. · Use care when moving the unit. Some edges are sharp and may cause personal injury. Wear gloves when moving or positioning the unit. · Never install the unit behind closed doors. Be sure front grille is free of obstruction. Obstructing free air flow can cause the unit to malfunction, and may void the warranty. · Allow unit temperature to stabilize for 24 hours before use. · Never use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture the inner lining or damage cooling unit. · Failure to clean the condenser every three months can cause the unit to malfunction. This could void the warranty. CAUTION · Using a heater to speed up defrosting can damage the inner lining. DO NOT use any type of electrical heater to defrost. · Use only genuine U-Line replacement parts. Imitation parts can reduce ice rate, cause water to overflow from ice maker mold, damage the unit, and may void the warranty. 4 INSTALLATION SITE PREPARATION 1. Position the unit on a flat, level surface, capable of supporting the entire weight of the unit. Remember that the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded. Connect the unit to a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60Hz, 15A circuit (normal household current). 2. ! DANGER ! ELECTROCUTION HAZARD! Electrical Grounding Required. This appliance is equipped with a three prong (grounding) polarized plug for your protection against possible shock hazards. · NEVER remove the round grounding prong from the plug. · NEVER use a two-prong grounding adapter. · NEVER use an extension cord to connect power to the unit. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered or a longer power cord is required, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced in accordance with applicable electrical codes. 5 User's Manual NOTE Keep in mind that the door of the unit may be mounted on either side of the cabinet (see REVERSING THE DOOR). All U-Line units have a zero clearance for the door to open when the handle is on the right (see Figure 1). Additional clearance is needed for Combo Models 29A, 29FF, and 75A only, when the door handle is on the left. See BUILT-IN INSTALLATION for additional clearance requirements for these models. 3.

When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines: · Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit. · In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the basement through a hole in the floor. · The water pressure should be between 15 and 150 psi. · Install a SHUT-OFF VALVE in the 1/4 inch supply line. · Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be moved for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation. · U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation.
