The chute switch consists of a microswitch and a band securing the spout and chute. When
the bin control switch breaks down, the band opens and presses the button on the
microswitch (contacts open) to stop the icemaker (error code: EL).
To restart the icemaker, remove ice from the spout and chute, and move the operation
switch to the "STOP" position, then to the "RUN" position.

The spout and spout cover are connected to the
evaporator casing with a removable flange. These are
the passage to deliver ice formed inside the
evaporator casing into the chute. The spout is
provided with a reed switch, ant the spout cover with a
magnet. If the bin control switch goes wrong and fails
to stop icemaking operation with the bin full, ice
pushes up the spout cover, and the magnet gets away
from the reed switch to stop the unit.
