Liebherr's Commitment to the Environment  
The components of Liebherr products can be recycled when the necessary  
resources are applied. A concern for the environment and a desire to protect  
resources has lead to increased levels of recycling year after year. When  
Liebherr manufactures products, it is essential that the recyclable recovery rate  
of the materials we use constantly increases.  
Recycling is a common goal among all manufacturers, municipalities and  
recycling companies to protect our environment. Protecting the environment  
and producing products which have a low impact on the environment, is one  
of Liebherr's core values. Whether you are replacing a unit or starting fresh,  
remember to dispose of your old appliance in an environmentally safe and  
friendly manner.

III. IceMaker (if equipped)  
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp (20 Amp for side-by-side  
installation) fused electrical supply is required. Connect  
undercounter wine cabinet to a 115 VAC, 10 amp (15  
Amp for side-by-side installations) circuit that is con-  
trolled by a circuit breaker or fuse.  
We recommend using a dedicated circuit for these ap-  
pliances to prevent electrical overload. Comply with  
the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and  
ordinances when installing the receptacle.  
The icemaker is located in the freezer compartment.  
It must be connected to the water supply to function  
properly. The appliance must be level for the icemaker to  
function properly.  
The water pressure must be between 21.8-87.0 psi (1.5-6 bar).  
Use a 1/4" OD copper line to connect the water supply to  
the solenoid valve. This is not supplied with the refrigera-  
tor.  
If you have hard water, we recommend you install a  
water softener. Also, a filter must be installed if the water  
contains solids such as sand. All equipment and devices  
used to supply the water to the appliance must comply  
with the current regulations for your geographical area.  
The power cord is equipped with a three-prong (ground-  
ing) plug for your protection against possible shock  
hazards. To maintain this protection:  
• Do not modify the plug by removing the round ground-  
ing prong.  
Safety Instructions and Warnings  
• Do not attach the water source while the appliance is  
connected to an electrical outlet.  
• Do not use a power cord that is frayed or damaged.  
• A shut-off valve, must be installed between the hose  
line and the main water supply so that the water sup-  
ply can be stopped if necessary. Do not install the  
shut-off valve behind the refrigeration unit.  
Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a  
qualified electrician if you are not sure the  
appliance is properly grounded. Do not have  
a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.  
• The connection to the water supply may only be made  
by a trained and licensed plumber.  
• The water quality must comply with the drinking water  
regulations for the geographical area where the appli-  
ance is located.  
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD  
Electrical Grounding Required. This  
appliance is equipped with a three-  
prong(grounding) polarized plug for your  
protection against possible shock hazards.  
• DO NOT remove the round grounding  
prong from the plug.  
• The icemaker is designed exclusively to make ice  
cubes in quantities needed by a household and may  
only be operated with water appropriate for this pur-  
pose.  
• DO NOT use a two-prong grounding  
adapter.  
• DO NOT use an extension cord to connect  
power to the unit.  
• All repairs and work on the icemaker may only be done  
by customer service personnel or other trained person-  
nel.  
• The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage  
caused by equipment or water lines between the sole-  
noid valve and the water supply.

Do not install this unit next to any other refrigerator or  
freezer except another Liebherr model. Liebherr models  
are designed to allow side by side installation. They are  
equipped with a heating system to eliminate condensa-  
tion when units are installed side by side. Installing this  
unit next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause  
condensation or cause damage to the Liebherr unit.

- The refrigerant circuit has been tested for leaks.  
To protect the refrigerator from possible  
damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to  
1 hour in place before turning the electricity  
on. This allows the refrigerant and system  
lubrication to reach equilibrium.  
Blocking For Safety  
The anti-tip bracket must be installed to prevent the unit  
from tipping after it is installed. Refer to chapter "Block-  
ing For Safety" in the installation instructions.
