INITIAL START UP

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW

• Before beginning, please read these instructions completely and

carefully.

1. Turn on the water supply.

2. Switch on the electrical power.

3. Push and release the On/Off switch to start the machine. The Ice

Making light next to the On/Off switch will glow Blue.

• DO NOT remove permanently affixed labels, warnings, or plates

from the product. This may void the warranty.

• Please observe all local and national codes and ordinances.

• Please ensure that this product is properly grounded.

• The installer should leave these instructions with the consumer who

should retain for local inspector’s use and for future reference.

WARNING

4. Water will begin to flow into the unit. When the reservoir is full,

water will start to drain from the machine. After a few minutes the

compressor, water pump and fan motor will begin to operate and

the first ice making cycle will have begun.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your unit, follow

these basic precautions:

• Read all instructions before using the unit.

• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the unit.

• Never clean unit parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire

hazard or explosion.

• Always turn the power on/off switch (located behind the air grille on top right

side) to the OFF position before attempting to change light bulbs, clean, or

service the unit.

No adjustments are needed.

After about half an hour, ice will fall into the ice storage bin. The

machine makes 24 cubes per batch. It is normal for the first batches of

ice to melt, that continues until the bin has cooled. It will take 8 to 10

hours of continuous run time to fill the ice bin. When the bin is full of

ice, the ice machine will shut off. It will automatically restart when the

ice level falls, either from use or normal meltage.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND

LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES

CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR EXPLOSION.

It is your responsibility to be sure your ice machine is:

• located so the front is not blocked to restrict incoming or discharge

air flow.

• properly leveled.

• located in a well ventilated area.

• connected to the proper kind of outlet, with the correct electric

supply and grounding. A 115V, 60 Hz, 15 amp fused electrical

supply is required. Note: Time delay fuse or circuit breaker is

recommended.

• not used by anyone unable to operate it properly.

• used only for its intended purpose.

USE

No special instructions are needed for use. Just take as much ice as

you need, the machine will replace it. A scoop is provided, and it can

be stored in the machine using the loop of tubing on the right side as

a holder. That tubing is also the ice level sensor; ice will fill the storage

bin until it is near to or on that tube and then the machine will shut off.

The machine can be shut off anytime by just pushing and releasing the

On/Off button. The machine will shut off at the end of the next cycle.

To shut off immediately, push and hold the On/Off button in until the

machine stops.

• properly maintained.

WATER QUALITY

USE (cont.)

All water, including potable water supplied by municipalities, contains

some impurities or minerals. Water absorbs impurities from the air as rain

and/or as it flows through the ground. Some of the impurities are solid

particles, these are known as suspended solids, and a fine particle filter

will remove them. Other impurities are chemically bonded to the water

molecules, and cannot be filtered out, these are called dissolved solids.

Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice. Objects like

wine or beer bottles are not only unsanitary, but the labels can slip off

and plug up the drain.

Never allow the machine to operate without regular cleaning. The

machine will last longer if it is kept clean. Regular cleaning should

happen at least once per year, and preferably twice. Some water

conditions will dictate even more frequent cleaning of the ice making

section, and some carpets or pets will dictate more frequent cleaning

of the condenser.

Note: The Time to Clean light will switch ON after 6 months of use. It

will remain ON until the ice making system is cleaned using the process

in the “How to clean the condenser and winterize” section.

Ice made by this machine will have a lower mineral content than the

water it was made from. This is due to the method of making ice. Purer

water will freeze first in the ice making molds. The reason for this is that

anything dissolved in water lowers the water’s freezing temperature. This

concentrates most of the impurities in the ice machine water reservoir

where they may form hard deposits known as scale. The machine dilutes

the concentration of minerals by over-filling the reservoir during the

harvest cycle (with the excess water flowing down the drain). s. Between

2 and 4 pints of water flow into the unit each cycle. Between 1 and 3.5

pints of that rinses the reservoir and goes down the drain.

Noise

The ice machine is designed for quiet operation, but will make some

noise during the ice making cycle. During a freezing cycle, it is normal

to hear the fan moving air and the water pump circulating water. Ice

hitting the bin or ice in the bin can be heard during harvest. If ice

making noise is objectionable, an appliance grade timer can be added

to the power supply. Set the timer to turn the machine off at the time(s)

of day when the noise is most objectionable.

Some impurities will inevitably remain, and will stick to the parts in the

machine, and will cause malformed ice cubes. Eventually, built up

mineral scale can shorten machine life.

To keep the machine operating properly, these impurities or minerals

will have to be regularly dissolved by an acid cleaning, using Ice

Machine Scale Remover. Directions for this may be found in the section

Ice cubes

under care and cleaning.

Normal cubes are tapered cylinders. If the cubes are ragged and mis-

shaped, mineral scale must be removed from the ice making system.

MAINTENANCE

CARE AND CLEANING

There are 5 things to keep clean:

1. The outside cabinet & door.

2. The ice storage bin.

3. The condenser.

Condenser cleaning

The condenser is like the radiator on a car, it has fins and tubes that can

become clogged with dirt and lint.

4. The ice making system.

5. The ice scoop.

To clean:

1. Remove the kickplate and front service panel.

2. Locate the condenser surface.

How to clean the cabinet

Wipe off any spills on the surface of the door and handle as they occur.

If anything spilled on the door or gasket dries onto the surface, wash

with soap and warm water to remove.

How to clean the ice storage bin

The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. It is usually

convenient to sanitize the bin after the ice making system has been

cleaned, and the storage bin is empty.

Condenser

surface

A sanitizing solution can be made of 1 ounce of household bleach and

two gallons of hot (95° F. – 115° F.) water. Use a clean cloth and wipe

the interior of the ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution, pour

some of the solution down the drain. Allow to air dry.

3. Vacuum the surface, removing all dust and lint.

CAUTION

DO NOT dent the fins.

4. Return the kickplate and front service panel to their original

positions. Fasten them to the cabinet using the original screws.

Winterizing

1. Clean the ice making system.

2. Open the door and push and release the On/Off switch to turn the

machine off.

3. Turn off the water supply.

5. Disconnect the incoming water line at the inlet water valve.

6. Open the door, push and release the on/off switch to turn the

machine on.

7. Blow air through the inlet water valve; a tire pump could do the job.

8. Drain pump models should have about 1/2 gallon of RV antifreeze

(propylene glycol) poured into the ice storage bin drain.

Note: Automotive antifreeze must NOT be used.

9. Switch off and unplug the machine.

5. Operate the machine for about ½ hour.

6. Push and release the On/Off switch. The Time to Clean light will

stop blinking and remain on. The machine will begin to flush out the

cleaning solution.

7. Operate the machine for another 1/2 hour.

8. Push and release the On/Off switch. The machine will stop the

cleaning process.

9. Pour a gallon of hot (95°F. – 115°F.) water into the bin to flush out

the drain.

10. Clean the bin liner of mineral scale by mixing some ice machine

scale remover and hot water, and using that solution to scrub the

scale off of the liner.

Removing scale from the ice making system

1. Scoop out all of the ice, either discard it or save it in an ice chest or

cooler.

2. Press and HOLD the On/off button in for 3 seconds until the Blue

light goes out.

11. Rinse the liner with hot water.

12. Sanitize the bin interior.

13. Replace the ice removed in step 1.

14. Push and release the On/Off button to restart ice making.

The ice scoop should be washed regularly, wash it just like any other

food container.

3. Press and HOLD the both the Clean-Reset and On/Off buttons for 5

seconds. The Time to Clean light will blink on and off.
