    SERVICE MANUAL SPIKA SERIES 4. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION UNDERCOUNTER MODELS (NG) Once you connect the machine there is a time delay of 2 minutes during which the water valve is activated to ensure the water tray is filled. Once the time is up, the compressor starts and the pump which recirculates the water from the water tray to the upper distributor which provides a soft and uniform flow of water over the evaporator cells, in which the water starts freezing.
