The PRO 48 has an automatic ice maker. This
system operates on water pressure between
1.4 bar and 8.3 bar.
Rough in the cold water supply line using
6,35 mm OD copper line. The water line should
be routed up through the floor within 13 mm
from the back wall and no higher than 76 mm
off the floor. If you have to come through the
wall, make sure the water line is no more than
76 mm from the floor.
Regardless of the routing, allow .9 m of excess
copper tubing to remain outside the wall or
floor for easy connection to the unit. Locate
the water supply line within the shaded area
indicated in the Installation Specifications illus-
tration on the previous page.
Use an easily accessible shut-off valve
between the water supply and the unit. Do not
use self-piercing valves. A saddle valve kit
(part #4200880) is available from your
Sub-Zero dealer.
It is not recommended that the ice maker be
connected to a softened water supply. Water
softener chemicals, such as salt from a
malfunctioning softener, can damage the ice
maker and lead to poor ice quality. If a
softened water supply cannot be avoided, be
sure that the water softener is well maintained
and operating properly.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use with water
that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
water quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system. Systems certified
for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected
waters that may contain filterable cysts.
MPORTANT NOTE: All installations must
meet local plumbing code requirements.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A reverse osmosis
system can be used, provided there is constant
water pressure of 1.4 bar to 8.3 bar supplied to
the unit at all times.

Uncrate the unit and inspect for any damages.
Remove the wood base and discard the
shipping bolts and brackets that hold the wood
base to the bottom of the unit. Tip the unit
slightly to each side to remove styrene pads
under the base. Remove and discard all
packing materials.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not discard the kick-
plate, anti-tip bracket and hardware or corner
protectors. These items will be needed for
installation.
