ready for initial start-up and operation. The Display panel
is located inside the unit, on the top (see Figure 46).

1. Open the door and remove the cover in front of the
evaporator by gently compressing and pulling
forward. This will enable you to observe the water
flow over the evaporator.
2. Check that the overflow tube is inserted securely into
the water trough.
3. Press the POWER icon (Figure 46, 1)and hold for
approximately five seconds until the °F symbol flashes
and release. The water fill valve will energize and fill
the water reservoir. The water fill valve shuts off after
approximately 180 seconds (3 minutes). The compressor
begins to operate.
4. Watch the water flow over the evaporator assembly (ice
cube tray) to familiarize yourself with the operation.
Upon initial start-up, water flow over the evaporator
may be uneven. This may cause uneven sized cubes or
water spilling into the ice storage bin. This is a normal
situation and will correct itself within the first 24 hours
of operation.
5. Replace the evaporator cover.
6. Allow unit to run for at least 24 hours to stabilize
before making any ice adjustments.
IMPORTANT
It is possible that dirt or scale will dislodge in the water
line. Always throw away all ice cubes made during the
first two to three hours of operation.
About Settings
All settings are factory preset. No adjustments should be
necessary at this time. For information about Ice Cube
Thickness, see the Use and Care Guide.

Start-Up Troubleshooting

Q:
Problem
Unit does not appear to turn on when Power icon is
pressed.
A:
Solution
Remember that the compressor will not operate until the
water has been filling for about 3 minutes. Make sure unit
is plugged in and outlet has power (circuit breaker has
not tripped). If the unit is equipped with a drain pump,
check that the drain line is not obstructed — unit will shut
down due to the safety design of the pump if water
cannot drain.
Q:
Problem
Water does not appear to be flowing into unit.
A:
Solution
Check that the water is connected and turned on, the line
is not obstructed and the overflow tube is inserted
securely into water trough.
Q:
Problem
The unit has been operating for 24 hours and water is still
not flowing evenly over evaporator.
A:
Solution
Level unit for even water flow. Uneven water flow will
reduce ice rate and cause water to spill in ice bin.

more solutions.
