- Cut off the power cord from the discarded appliance. Discard separately from the appli-ance.
- Be sure to follow your local requirements for disposal of appliances. Contact the trash collection agency in your area for additional information.
Disposal of Packaging Material
Keep packaging materials away from children. Polythene sheets and bags can
cause suffocation!
- If possible, please recycle packaging material at a recy-cling facility.
Electrical Safety
Connect this appliance to a 15 amp or 20 amp, 110-120 VAC circuit which is
grounded and protected by a circuit breaker or fuse. We recommend using a
dedicated circuit for this appli-ance to prevent circuit overload and the
chance of inter-ruption to the appliance. This appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (ground-ing) polarized plug for your protection against possible
shock hazards. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a
qualified electrician and have it replaced with a properly grounded three-
prong receptacle in accor-dance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING!
Electrocution hazard. Electrical grounding required.
- Do not remove the round grounding prong from the plug.
- Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two-prong) adapters.

IceMaker
Safety Instructions and Warnings
- Do not install the water connection while the combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to an electrical outlet.
- The connection to the water supply may only be made by a trained and licensed plumber.
- All equipment and devices used to supply the water to the appliance must comply with the current regulations for your geographical area.
WARNING!
Connect to potable water supply only.
Water Connection Requirements
- The water supply pressure requirements are different based on whether or not the supplied Liebherr water filter is installed. With the filter installed, the pressure must be in the range of 40-90 psi (2.8-6.2 bar). Without the filter installed, the acceptable pressure range is 22-87 psi (1.5-6 bar). Failure to meet these requirements will likely result in ice maker malfunction and possibly cause a water leakage that can damage flooring and surrounding furniture.
- A shut-off valve, must be installed between the hose line and the main water supply so the water supply can be stopped if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Do not install the shut-off valve behind the appliance.
IMPORTANT
Only use the supplied adapter for connection to the solenoid valve. The
solenoid valve has a metric R3/4 male connector. Any attempt to use other
adapters for connection could damage the thread on the solenoid valve. The
supplied adapter enables different connection options for different kinds of
water lines. A water line is not supplied with the appliance.
IMPORTANT
Do not use any old or already premounted water supply lines.
- The connection to the valve connector can be done with or without the angle connector, as required.
- Braided style ice maker hoses can be connected directly to the threaded ends.
- For connection with 1/4″ OD copper lines, use the union nut with compression ring.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the connection is fitted with a seal and is tight.
- Insert the water strainer supplied into the valve connector (Figure 12).
Connection to the Water Supply
-
Move the appliance towards the final position and leave enough space to work behind.
-
Insert the water supply line into its intended opening at the back of the appliance (Figure 13).
-
Move the power supply line to the area of the electrical outlet.
WARNING
Do not connect to the electrical outlet before the installation is completed and the water line is connected to the solenoid valve. -
Push the appliance slowly to the back wall until the compressor mounting plate makes contact with the anti-tipping bracket (Figure 14).
WARNING!
To prevent the appliance from tipping forward the compressor mounting plate must have contact with the anti tipping bracket (Figure 14). -
Remove the cover from the solenoid valve (Figure 15).
-
Connect the water line to the adapter in the respective configuration, depending on the type of water line used. Figure 16 shows the configuration with a copper line as an example.
