Environmental Requirements

This model is intended for indoor/interior applications only and is not to be used in installations that are open/ exposed to natural elements.
This unit is designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) and 100°F (38°C). Higher ambient temperatures may reduce the unit’s ability to reach low temperatures and/or reduce ice production on applicable models.
For best performance, keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat generating equipment.
In climates where high humidity and dew points are present, condensation may appear on outside surfaces. This is considered normal. The condensation will evaporate when the humidity drops.

Damages caused by ambient temperatures of 40°F (4°C) or below are not covered by the warranty.

Electrical

SHOCK HAZARD — Electrical Grounding Required. Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected.
Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug and never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Altering, cutting or removing power cord, removing power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire, loss of property and/or life, and will void the warranty.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.

NOTICE
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. A GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location appliances and is not recommended for your unit because it could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure to consult your local codes.

Water Hookup

PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4” (6.35 mm) compression fitting. U-Line recommends using accessory water hook up kit – part # 80-54674-00. The kit includes a 10’ (3 m) braided flexible water supply line and a brass hose fitting.

Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.
 Water Supply Connection

When connecting the water supply, please note the following:

• Before installing the unit and connecting to the cold water supply, review the local plumbing
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi (138 and 827 kPa).
• Water has less than 400 mg/L (ppm) total dissolved solids and hardness level below 200 mg/L (ppm) — e., below 12 grains per gallon. Check by using TDS meter or consulting with local water company.
• TDS and/or water hardness above these limits should be treated with a reverse osmosis system or other filtration
• Softened water is not recommended as it may result in softer ice than
• The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the supply
• The water line should be looped into 2 This will allow the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing. Make certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.

Drain

Model numbers including “CL” or “NB” do not include a factory installed drain pump.
Model numbers including “CP” or “NP” include a factory installed drain pump

DRAIN CONNECTION

If your U-Line unit did not come with a factory installed drain pump you must use a gravity style drain connection. For assistance in determining if your unit has a pump please contact U-Line. The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all attached drains. Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/ or potentially flowing onto the floor, which may result in personal injury or property damage.

Drain can NOT be located directly below the unit. Unit has a solid base that will not allow the unit to drain below itself.
There is a possibility that hose connections may have loosened during shipment.
Verify all connections and fittings are free from leaks.

GRAVITY DRAIN

A gravity drain may be used if:

Drain line has at least a 1″ drop per 48″ (approximately 2 cm drop per 100 cm) of run.
Drain line does not create traps and is vented per local code.

1. Cut the pre-installed drain tube to
2. Connect to your local plumbing per the local
3. If necessary, insulate drain line to prevent

Failure to connect water supply or drain line connections properly can result in personal injury and property damage. Gravity drain connections must be routed downward from the rest of the unit at the rate of 1/4″ per foot (1 cm per 50 cm).

FACTORY INSTALLED DRAIN PUMP

If your drain line will run up to a stand pipe, disposal or
spigot assembly, or does not otherwise meet the requirements for a gravity drain, you may have ordered a pre-installed U-Line P60 drain pump.
If you need to install a P60 drain pump into your unit, see DRAIN PUMP section in the User Manual.
See below for typical installations requiring a drain pump.

The maximum lift for the P60 drain pump is
10 feet. This must be done as close to the rear of the unit as possible.

1/2″ (13 mm) clearance is recommended from wall on hinge side to allow the door to open 90°. Allow for additional space for any knobs or pulls installed on the integrated panel/frame.
Stainless Steel models that are installed adjacent to a wall require 2-1/4″ (57 mm) door clearance on hinge side to allow for door handle.
Units have a zero clearance when installed adjacent to cabinets

Ice

The Nugget Ice Machine produces cylindrical bits of compressed ice approximately 3/4” x 1/2”.
Ice is produced until the machine senses the bin is full. As ice slowly melts in the bin, the level of ice drops and ice production resumes. This ensures a constant supply of fresh ice is always available.
The factory default ice setting is 0, which produces a firm and compact ice nugget. U-Line’s exclusive
U-Choose™ ice adjustability feature allows you five levels of adjustment from 0 to -5. At -5 the ice is soft and chewable.
To adjust the ice density:

1. Hold for 5 seconds – display will flash current ice setting

Integrated Panel Dimensions

INTEGRATED PANEL

NOTICE

Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the panel may not perfectly align with door. The procedure below is designed to provide a finished integrated panel that seamlesslyintegrates with surrounding cabinetry.

Panel Preparation

A full integrated door panel completely covers the door frame and provides a built-in appearance.

NOTICE

The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).

It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardware is installed.

1. Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the diagram below.
2. Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.
   Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer.
3. Optional: Install handles and hardware.

NOTICE

When applying an integrated panel to a unit, ensure that both sides are finished in order to prevent warping. In some panel installations, the panel may be visible through the glass while the door is open.

HANDLELESS INTEGRATED DOOR PANEL

The following procedure is designed to provide a finished, handleless solid panel for an 15″ (381 mm) door that seamlessly integrates with its surrounding cabinetry.

NOTE: Many cabinet manufacturers provide a ready solution for a handleless, integrated design that can be easily applied to your model. Consult your cabinet
manufacturer for applicable design and installation details. The cabinet manufacturer’s solution to this design and integration detail will often result in an integrated panel solution wherein the size of the panel may result in a height dimension taller than what we specify. This can be achieved provided the additional height is positioned above the appliance door.

NOTICE
The integrated panel aligns with the surrounding cabinetry and, due to differences in cabinetry, may not align perfectly with the door.

The appliance will need up to 34-1/2″ (876 mm) to the underside of the counter to leave room for leveling adjustments.

A single prepared panel with insert must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).

Integrated Panel Preparation

1. Cut the main panel to the dimensions below. For details, see the drawings on the next page.
   

   Main panel width	Main panel height
   14-15/16″ (379 mm)	28-13/16″ (732 mm)

2. Create the top design for the handleless feature and the 1/8″ (3 mm) notch for the insert(s) indicated on the Top Detail drawing, on the next page.
3. Prepare the insert(s) that will back up the handleless design. Wooden Insert – Cut 1/8″ (3 mm) thick wooden insert(s) to the dimensions below.
   

   Wooden insert width	Wooden insert height
   14-15/16″ (379 mm)	3-1/2″ (89 mm)

   

4. Optional: Stain or finish panel and wooden insert to desired stain or color. Be sure to closely follow theinstructions provided by the manufacturer.
   NOTICE
   If finishing panel or wooden insert, all sides must be finished to prevent warping.
5. Attach the insert to the panel. Wood glue or equivalent adhesive should be used to attach insert to panel.

Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the panel may not perfectly align with door. The procedure below is designed to provide a finished panel that seamlessly integrates with surrounding cabinetry.

Panel Preparation

An extended integrated panel can be used to maintain alignment with an adjacent extended cabinet height or a reduced toe-kick/grille application.

1. Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the appropriate diagram on the next page.
2. Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color. Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacture.
3. Optional: Install handles and hardware

NOTICE

The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).

It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardware is installed.
