Operating Instructions
Icemaker
How your
icemaker
works
When you first start your icemaker, the water
reservoir will fill and the system will rinse itself
before starting to make ice. The rinsing process
takes about five minutes.
Under normal operating conditions, the
icemaker will cycle on and off as needed.
The ice level sensor located in the ice storage
bin will monitor the ice levels.
IMPORTANT
• If the water supply to the icemaker is turned
off, be sure to set the icemaker control to
OFF. Drain the water reservoir and leave
the icemaker door open to allow it to dry
completely.
• The icemaker is designed to make clear ice
from the majority of water sources on a daily
basis. If your results are unsatisfactory, your
water may need to be filtered or treated.
Making Ice
1. Water is constantly circulated over a freezing
plate. As the water freezes into ice, the
minerals in the water are rejected. This
produces a clear sheet of ice with a low
mineral content.
2. When the desired thickness is reached, the ice
sheet is released and slides onto a cutter grid.
The grid divides the sheet into individual
cubes.
3. The water containing the rejected minerals
is drained after each freezing cycle.
4. Fresh water enters the machine for the next
ice making cycle.
5. Cubes fall into the storage bin. When the bin
is full, the icemaker shuts off automatically
and restarts when more ice is needed. The ice
bin is not refrigerated and some melting will
occur. The amount of melting varies with
room temperature.
NOTE: As the room and water temperatures
vary, so will the amount of ice produced and
stored. This means that higher operating
temperatures result in reduced ice production.
