How do I set up and prepare my GE Profile Nugget Ice Maker before first use?

First, carefully remove all packing materials and place the ice maker upright on a flat, level surface. Slide the drip tray under the front edge, aligning it with the front feet. Before first use, sanitize and rinse the ice maker with clean water for five minutes. Ensure 4 inches of clearance on all sides of the unit.
