ICEMAKER
8.1
Ice Production
The icemaker comes out of the factory defaulted to off. To turn the icemaker on, press the MENU button to
scroll until the ICE option has been scrolled to.
Press the UP or DOWN buttons to turn the icemaker on or off. When the cubes are frozen, the icemaker
motor will turn the ice cube tray and twist the tray causing the ice cubes to dislodge and fall out of the tray.
The tray will then return to its normal position and refill with water.
NOTE: If the FC is above -10
around, the icemaker will not operate.

Information About The Icemaker
•
The icemaker moulds in these later cabinets
have 30% larger ice block moulds in the tray.
The tray can be identified by a number of
dimples in the middle of the side edge.
•
The water fill time has been increased to 5.7 seconds to allow the tray to fill. This has been achieved by
the use of 16-watt inlet water valves, thus increasing the flow rate to both the water dispenser and the
icemaker unit.
•
The solenoid valves are not interchangeable with those used on earlier model cabinets.
•
The temperature of the FC needs to reach below -10
operate.
•
When first switched on, the icemaker carries out a harvest with no water in the ice tray.
•
Once the ice tray resumes its normal position, the water will fill the tray. At this stage it will calculate the
amount of time taken to do a cycle, and then flips. After this point it will run normally, calculating the
amount of time for each batch. The rate of production will depend on the temperature of the freezer.
NOTE: If the temperature is above -10
dispense.
•
The cubes will be ejected from the mould into the ice bin. It is suggested that the ice cubes are levelled
with the ice scoop occasionally for maximum storage.
•
The large and small freezer bins can be rotated if a large amount of ice is required.
To manually force a harvest.
Press the DOWN, UP and LOCK buttons together and hold for 4 seconds. The icemaker will rotate and
empty the contents of the ice tray, then return to its normal position. The ice tray will then fill with water.
NOTE:
•
A forced harvest will operate without the product being down to temperature. If the harvest does not
work, the sensor may be not connected or may be open circuit. The icemaker sensor must be in circuit
for a forced harvest to work.
•
When forcing a harvest of the icemaker, the bin must be in place for the harvest to occur.
8.3
Ice Bin Full Sequence
When the ice bin is full, the icemaker starts a sequence of testing to ensure ice harvest can continue. If the
icemaker senses the bin is full, the motor resumes its normal position. Twenty minutes later, the testing
sequence commences until such time as the ice level is reduced by usage. The testing sequence happens
every 20 minutes.
