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.
Warm air will flow out of the left front grill. It will take about 10 minutes for the ice machine to begin dropping nugget
ice into the storage bin. It is normal for that ice to melt and ice will continue to melt, but at a slower rate. It will take
about 6 - 7 hours to fill up the ice storage bin. The bin holds about 20 lb of ice when full.
Ice level control
The ice level control is an ultrasonic sensor, located above the ice storage area. It is automatic and there is no
adjustment to make. When ice melts or is used, and the ice level drops below a preset distance the control turns the
ice making system back on. It makes ice until the preset level is reached. Placing your hand in the unit to remove ice
does not affect the ice level.
Using Your Ice Machine
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.
The machine can be shut off anytime by just pushing and releasing the ON/OFF button. During the ice making,
nugget ice will drop into the bin at an irregular rate. Sometimes there will be little ice fallilng while at other times, a
group of nuggets will fall. Some water drops may also come out with the ice. Both conditions are normal.
It is designed to operate in wide range of air temperatures:
-Minimum air temperature: 50 degrees F.
-Maximum air temperature: 100 degrees F.
Although the machine will function within the listed ranges, it works best at water temperatures between 50 and 60 and
air temperatures between 60 and 80.
Note: Ice making capacity goes down as the environmental temperatures go up, and will be severely reduced at
temperatures over 90
o
F.
Operating a unit outside of the limits can cause problems that are not covered by the warranty and, if extreme, cause
damage to the unit.
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.
Noise
The ice machine is designed for quiet operation, but will make some noise during the ice making cycle.
