Disposal and Recycling
!DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT. Before you throw away
your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors and leave
shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
If the unit is being removed from service for disposal, check and
obey all federal, state and local regulations regarding the
disposal and recycling of refrigeration appliances, and follow
these steps completely:
1. Remove all consumable contents from the unit.
2. Unplug the electrical cord from its socket.
3. Remove the door(s)/drawer(s).
Environmental Requirements
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.
!CAUTION
Damages caused by ambient temperatures of
40°F (4°C) or below are not covered by the
warranty.

Electrical
!WARNING
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.
See CUTOUT DIMENSIONS for recommended receptacle
location.

PREPARE SITE
Your Marvel product has been designed for either free-
standing or built-in installation. When built-in, your unit does
not require additional air space for top, sides, or rear.
However, the front grille must NOT be obstructed, and
clearance is required for an electrical connection in the rear.
!CAUTION
Unit can NOT be installed behind a closed cabinet door.

Installation Operation and Maintenance Instructions
Side-by-Side Installation
Two units may be installed side-by-side.
Cutout width for a side-by-side installation is the cutout
dimension of a single unit times two.
No trim kit is required. However, 1/4" (6 mm) of space needs to
be maintained between the units to ensure unobstructed door
swing.
Units must operate from separate, properly grounded electrical
receptacles placed according to each unit’s electrical
specifications requirements.
Side-by-Side Installation with Bracket
1. Slide both units out so screws on top of units are easily
accessible.
2. Remove screws as shown below.
3. Place bracket over holes and attach to unit with two screws
removed in step 2 using a T-25 Torx driver. Tighten screws
fully.
4. Gently push units into position. Be careful not to entangle
the electrical cord or water line, if applicable.
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" (3 mm) below the countertop.

Water Hookup
PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) compression
fitting.
!CAUTION
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 codes.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi (138
and 827 kPa).
• The water line MUST have a shut-off valve in the supply line.
• The water line should be looped into 2 coils. This will allow
the unit to be removed for cleaning and servicing. Make
certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged during
installation.
!WARNING
Connect to potable water supply only.
!CAUTION
Do not use any plastic water supply line. The line is under
pressure at all times. Plastic may crack or rupture with age
and cause damage to your home.
Do not use tape or joint compound when attaching a
braided flexible water supply line that includes a rubber
gasket. The gasket provides an adequate seal – other
materials could cause blockage of the valve.
Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may
result in damage and/or harm, flooding or void the product
warranty.
Use new hose set. Do not reuse old hose set.
!CAUTION
Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply to
unit prior to installation.
Use caution when handling back panel. The edges could
be sharp.
1. Turn off water supply and disconnect electrical supply to
product prior to attempting installation.
2. Remove the back panel.

General Installation
LEVELING INFORMATION
1. Use a level to confirm
the unit is level. Level
should be placed
along top edge and
side edge as shown.
2. If the unit is not level,
adjust the legs on the corners of the unit as necessary.
3. Confirm the unit is level after each adjustment and repeat
the previous steps until the unit is level.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cutout opening,
adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8"
(3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height. Shorten the unit
height in the front by adjusting the front legs. This allows the
unit to be gently tipped into the opening. Readjust the front legs
to level the unit after it is correctly positioned in the opening.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord.
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to entangle
the cord or water and drain lines.
3. 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" (3 mm) below the countertop.
4. Install the anti-tip bracket.
5. Remove interior packing material and wipe out the inside of
the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.
