DEAR INSTALLER
HERES'S TEN STEPS FOR A QUICK & EASY INSTALL
① Inspect cabinet opening for water, drain and electrical connections.
The 1/4" O.D. water supply line must include isolation valve and should include an inline water filter (consult manual). Do NOT use a self-piecing valve for the supply connection. Water supply must have a minimum pressure of 20 psi and a maximum of 80 psi. Cold water should be between 50^ and 90^ - NOTE: warmer water will slow ice production. Water quality directly affects performance and product life - use of an inline water filter is strongly recommended.
Drain tubing will be 5/8" ID gravity fed or 3/8" ID for a pump model. All horizontal drain runs must drop 1/4" per foot. The drain should include an air gap device to prevent siphoning and a sanitary trap. A restricted or inadequate drain can result in poor ice production and possible flooding.
④ Electrical requirement is 15a dedicated, grounded circuit - outdoor installs must use a GFI.
Route water supply tubing to the water inlet located at the rear of the unit. Connect the drain tubing to either the pump discharge or the barbed gravity fed elbow. Be sure nothing is kinked, and excess slack is removed. Be sure the electrical connection is secure into the wall outlet.
⑥ Slide the machine into location or cavity being careful not to allow for any kinks to occur in the water inlet and drain tubing.
⑦ Adjust the Ice Maker to level using the leg levelers.
⑧ Add approximately 2-3 quarts of water to the bin and make certain it is draining properly and check for leaks. If water does not drain, stop and verify tubing is not restricted.
⑨ Wash down the interior of the machine with a mild detergent solution (consult manual)
Turn the machine on and allow it to make ice for approximately 30-35 minutes to verify ice is being produced and water is draining freely. Be sure to check the cube size, shape and clarity. Discard the first batch of ice.
adjust if needed.
Always do one last check to be sure all water and drain connections are leak free.
DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT!
An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children.
Remove door gaskets, latches, lids, lock and/or doors from unused or discarded appliances, or take other actions to guarantee them harmless.
Always dispose of old appliances in accordance with local laws and regulations.

YOUR SAFETY MATTERS
Please read through completely before using your XO Unit
Periodic maintenance is essential for safe operation - the unit must be easily pulled out for full access.
The appliance must be positioned so that the plug and water shutoff are readily accessible.
Empty your XO unit before attempting to move the appliance. Moving while loaded may damage or distort the frame.
The compressor will get HOT during operation / touching it may cause injury.
During installation follow all safety tips provided in this manual / appropriate safety equipment such as safety glasses and work gloves should be worn.
Two people should move or lift your XO unit to prevent injury or damage.
Remove all interior and exterior packing materials prior to installation and dispose of properly.
Always use only approved cleaning and descaling products to maintain your XO Ice Maker.
For maximum efficiency, keep the door tightly shut unless removing ice.
Before installing, allow your XO unit to sit upright for 2 hours at the install site. This will allow the cooling system to stabilize after transportation. Failure to follow this step may cause problems.
Never store bottles, cans or perishable food products such as meat or cheese in your XO Ice Maker.
Location
Your XO unit should be located away from direct sunlight and heat sources (stove, heaters, etc.) which may increase electrical consumption. High or low ambient temperature may cause units to work improperly. Optimal operation occurs in the ambient temperatures of 50^ - 68^ F and water temperature below 50^ .
The floor must be strong enough to support your XO unit fully loaded.
Your XO unit must not be installed in areas of where water or excessive moisture are present.
Your XO unit must not be installed near where flammable, corrosive or hazardous materials are present.
Your XO unit's final installation must observe the correct minimum air clearances around and behind the unit to ensure adequate ventilation. In addition, all ventilation openings must be kept clear and free of obstructions, failure to do so will result in damage to the unit.
WARNING
NEVER use external heat sources to accelerate defrosting
NEVER permit unauthorized service or modifications to your XO unit
NEVER tamper with the sealed refrigerant system - this unit uses R-513a Refrigerant.
It should never be used in the vicinity of any flammable or explosive ignition sources.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL
CHECK A FEW THINGS

Is the installation location COOL, DRY, LEVEL and away from direct sun.
The water supply valve must provide positive shut off capability and be readily accessible.
Does the unit have a dedicated 115V three prong grounded outlet? (use GFI outdoors)
The Cold Water supply is 1/4" O.D. tube, it should be 50° to 90°F and be between 20 and 80 psi. (NOTE: as the inlet water temperature increases - production efficiency goes down.)
YOU WILL NEED -
A few simple hand tools:
Pump pliers, adjustable wrench, #2 Phillips head screwdriver, level, razor knife
AND a few hardware items:
Teflon tape or Pipe dope
5/8" I.D. drain hose and hose clamps (if installing a gravity drain model)
1/4" O.D. water supply hose
Air Gap Device and/or Sanitary Trap (depending on your installation).
Water filter with isolation valve
Depending on your installation you will probably require additional site specific plumbing fittings
WATER QUALITY
All water contains some impurities and minerals.
Your XO Ice Maker is designed to produce crystal clear, gourmet ice. It does this by reducing the mineral content in the water as the ice is forming.
PURER WATER YIELDS PURER ICE.
Cubes are formed by cold water spraying against a chilled mold. Pure water freezes faster than water containing impurities. The spraying action causes the cubes to be built up in layers as the pure water freezes more quickly and the water containing impurities is washed away by the spray and falls into the water bin to be diluted and drained away.
When the ice maker senses the cubes are fully formed and ready, the ice cube molds are heated slightly causing them to drop out of the mold and into the ice holding bin.
Periodic maintenance is required to ensure that your ice maker is performing at its best. See the maintenance section of this book and the Maintenance Schedule.
FILTERS AND WATER TREAMENT
The correct filter is always recommended. It has the ability to remove odors as well as particulate from water prior to reaching the ice maker.
(consult www.xoappliance.com for more information on which filter is right for you)
Water softeners exchange one mineral for another (salt) which can cause inferior ice quality such as soft, mushy ice that clumps together. If you are using a water softener, you should install a bypass to supply untreated water to the ice maker.
Water produced by Reverse Osmosis and deionized water are not recommended. It is more corrosive than tap water and can cause harm to the equipment over time.
THE PLUMBING
Plan the arrangement of the water supply pipes. You will need both a water supply line and a drain (see section on installing a gravity drain unit or pump drain unit)
Connect a 1/4" O.D. copper tube to the COLD tap water pipe and install a shutoff valve. Do not install the shutoff valve at the back of the product. Do not use a self-piercing valve. If the tap water has a high level of minerals, an inline filter will be required.
Attach the water supply line to the rear of the unit with flexible tube to the fitting indicated here. The tubing must be long enough to permit the unit to be pulled out for service.
Water supply should be between 20psi and 80psi.
Attach the drain to the connection indicated here If you are installing an XOUIM1565S unit with a gravity drain, the line must be pitched down 1/4" per ft to ensure correct drainage.
If the drain is positioned at a higher elevation than the connection on the rear of the unit, a pump will be required. Use model XOUIM1565GP. This unit comes with a pre-installed drain pump capable on discharging to a drain up to 8' above the unit.
IMPORTANT: The keep drains as short and straight as possible for optimal performance.

The electric power, water supply pipeline and drain pipeline must be in compliance with all provisions under the local laws and building regulations.
IMPORTANT: The product is designed for use in a fixed condition but it may be required to pull the product out for service. Therefore, do not install any material at the front, upper or lower end of the product which may be an obstacle when pulling the product out.
Once the unit is in place, use the leveling legs to ensure the unit is level. Each side should have at least 1/16" of space for projection of the screw head near the bottom.
WITH GRAVITY DRAIN
INSTALLING THE XOUIM1565S without a drain pump.
Position the ice maker in front of the opening. Level the unit using the leveling legs.
Wash and flush the water supply tube and connect the unit to the cold water isolation valve.
Prepare the drain. The drain must be pitched downward at a drop of 1/4" per foot to drain properly.
Horizontal runs of 5' or more must be anchored to a wall for support to prevent sagging.
A sanitary trap and air gap must be installed in the line prior to entering the home's drain system.
The trap prevents sewer gas from flowing back to the ice maker.
The air gap device prevents siphoning drain water back into the ice maker.
Cut the 5/8" ID drain hose (not supplied) to the required length. Immerse the hose in warm water to make installation easier, then using a threaded hose barb connection sealed with teflon tape, connect the drain hose to the drain using hose clamps.
Turn the water supply on and check to ensure there are no leaks.
If there are no leaks, plug the unit into the electrical outlet.
Press the switch to the "ICE" position. The compressor will run approximately 3 - 5 minutes.
Slide the unit back into it's final position and recheck to ensure it is level.
REMEMBER to adhere to all local building codes and regulations

If you purchase a gravity drain unit and find you need one with a pump the XOUIM1565S can easily be retrofitted with one in the field.
Simply order a XOUIMPUMP from www.xoappliance.com
WITH DRAIN PUMP
INSTALLING THE XOUIM1565SP with DRAIN PUMP.
Position the ice maker in front of the opening.
Level the unit using the leveling legs.
Wash and flush the water supply tube and connect the unit to the cold water isolation valve.
Cut the 3/8" diameter drain hose to the required length. Immerse the hose in warm water to make installation easier, then connect the drain hose to the drain using hose clamps.
(9' of 3/8" ID drain hose is included with pump models)
IMPORTANT: Check local codes to determine if an air gap is required between the drain and the pump.
Turn the water supply on and check to ensure there are no leaks.
If there are no leaks, plug the unit into the electrical outlet.
Fill the ice container with clean tap water approximately 3/4 full. The drain pump should turn on and pump the water out. Check again for leakage.
Press the switch to the "ICE" position. The compressor will run approximately 3 - 5 minutes.
Fill the ice container to 3/4 full once more. Block the drain tube while the pump is running. The pump should continue to run.
Slide the unit back into it's final position and re-check to ensure it is level.
REMEMBER to adhere to all local building codes and regulations

FOR OUTDOOR USE
When using your XO Ice Maker outdoors - follow these additional steps.
Different regions of the country can have radically different seasonal weather which can affect performance and the influence your selection for the physical location of the unit.
In outdoor installations care must be taken to protect the unit from excessive heat or direct sun, dusty or damp conditions or in a location where it may be rained on or splashed by water.
The unit must be connected to a grounded circuit. If the installation is outdoor it must be protected by a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI). If you are uncertain if the circuit is correctly grounded and protected, consult a licensed electrician.
These units are designed to operate in ambient temperatures between 50^ and 90^ F.
As the ambient temperature approaches either extreme the production capacity of the ice maker will be reduced. This is normal and expected.
Never install the unit where flammable or corrosive chemicals (such as pool chemicals) are present.
Installation in seaside environments where high concentrations of salt, or in pool areas where high concentrations of chlorine are present will require more frequent cleaning to avoid corrosion.
Use in any uncontrolled area or otherwise exposed to the elements is hazardous and voids the warranty.
In regions where high humidity exists condensation may appear on the door and/or gasket seals.
CAUTION: Exposing the Ice Maker to freezing ambient temperatures can cause water throughout the installation to freeze where it is not supposed to and may result in damage to the unit.
Seasonally, once temperatures at the coldest part of the day begin to approach 40^ F you should take steps to winterize your ice maker following the steps in this manual.

OPERATING
Initial operation
① Open the water supply valve connected with the ice maker.
② Insert the plug of the ice maker into the electric outlet.
③ Open the door and turn the switch to the "ICE" position."
④ Discard the first batch of ice.
⑤ Good-quality ice is produced 1-2 hours later.

Using the ice maker
Use of the ice maker is very simple. Simply turn the switch at the lower end of the product to the “ICE” position.
The product automatically starts ice production, which continues until the ice container has been filled with ice. Remove the ice using an ice scoop and insert the scoop into the holder on the inside of the container (If you place the container in the ice, it may be covered over by ice).
The ice maker produces 24 pieces of ice every 30 minutes. Also, the produced ice drops down into the ice container; water is supplied to the ice maker and the water is also drained.
Important Information : Do not put anything other than ice in the ice container. Wine or beer bottles are unsanitary and a detached label may block the drain pipe.
Ice
The ice has a rectangular bell shape (refer to the figure).
Newly produced ice is clear and transparent. The inside of the ice is sometimes cracked; however, such cracks commonly occur in the production process and disappear with time.
Ice stored in the container for a long time may gather frost on the outside and look cloudy. This is normal ice and, once water is poured on the ice, such frosting disappears.

The product continues making ice until the level of ice reaches the temperature sensing tube(right side). It then ceases operation. The model with a drain pump drains away melted ice when the ice maker is turned off. The pump works for only several seconds.
OPERATING CONT.
Operation time
It takes about 20-35 minutes to produce a set of 24 ice pieces. The length of one cycle of the ice maker (ice production and ice removal) differs depending upon the cleanness of the ice maker, the surrounding temperature, and the temperature of the water supplied to the ice maker. It takes about 10-12 hours to fill the empty ice container with ice.
Ice production
The ice production process largely consists of two cycles-ice production and ice removal. 24 pieces of ice are produced with each cycle of ice production and ice removal.
When water is sprayed on to the surface of the frozen ice forming mold, the ice production cycle is started. When ice is removed and water is supplied to ice maker, the ice removal cycle is started. The time taken for both cycles together is about 20-35 minutes.
Ice production cycle
Ice is produced on the surface of the ice -forming mold located at the top of the ice maker. Water is sprayed against the chilled surface of the mold where it begins to freeze. Water containing mineral impurities freezes more slowly and it falls back into the water container where it will be diluted and drained off during the Ice Removal Cycle. This process of spraying water allows ice to form in crystal clear layers.
As the ice-forming mold is filled with ice the temperature drops, the ice maker senses this and the ice production cycle stops and ice removal is started automatically.
Ice removal cycle
The compressor works during the ice removal cycle, but the pump motor and fan motor are stopped. The hot gas valve and water supply valve are opened and the frozen surfaces are heated, causing ice to drop into the container. The ice removal cycle is stopped and the ice production cycle is started again automatically.
STAINLESS STEEL
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Stainless Steel:
Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel, but it is not stain or corrosion proof. Stainless steels can discolor or corrode if not maintained properly.
Stainless steels differ from ordinary carbon steels by the amount metals such as chromium and nickel used in the alloy. It is the chromium which provides an invisible protective film on the surface called chromium oxide. If the protective chromium oxide film on the surface is damaged or contaminated, it can result in discoloration, staining, or corrosion of the iron in the steel.
Care & Cleaning:
Routine cleaning of the stainless steel surfaces will serve to greatly extend the life of your product by removing contaminants.
This is especially important in coastal areas which can expose the stainless to severe contaminants such as halide salts, (sodium chloride) and also in pool areas where high concentrations of chlorine are present.
It is strongly recommended to periodically inspect and thoroughly clean crevices, weld points, under gaskets, rivets, bolt heads, and any locations where small amounts of moisture could collect, become stagnant, and concentrate contaminates.
Additionally, any mounting hardware that is showing signs of corrosion should be replaced.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the installation location, environmental factors, and use.
Cleaning Products:
Ultimately, the choice of a proper cleaning product belongs to the consumer, and there are many products to choose from. Depending upon the type of cleaning and the degree of contamination, some products are better than others.
Typically the most effective means of routine cleaning for most stainless steel products is to give the surfaces a brisk rubbing with a soft cloth soaked in warm water with a gentle detergent, or mild mixture of ammonia.
Rubbing should follow the polish lines of the steel, followed by a thorough rinsing after cleaning.
CAUTION: There are products on the market Called "stainless steel cleaners," which may contain abrasives that could scratch the surface, (compromising the protective chromium oxide coating) and other products which contain chlorine bleach which will dull, tarnish or discolor the surface if not completely removed. Such cleaners should be avoided.
